Fusion devices (tokamaks, stellarators) require hundreds of millions degree Celsius temperature to reach the plasma state when the fusion reactions start to occur. Ion cyclotron resonance heating (ICRH) is a method of energy transfer to the ions in the plasma from electromagnetic ... En savoir plus
While many biological details in organogenesis have been uncovered, fundamental questions regarding the control of growth and shape during lung and kidney morphogenesis remain unsolved. Using mathematical models, we recently showed that only ligand-receptor based Turing models ... En savoir plus
Standard measuring techniques for thermal conductivity cannot be readily applied to determine the load-dependent thermal conductivity of porous adsorbents, because the local ad- and desorption inside the specimen and the thickness of the specimen are not considered. Hence, in this work a ... En savoir plus
During the last decades, mid-IR (3-12µm) laser sources have attracted attention due to their potential applications in different fields like infrared counter-measures (e.g: missile jamming) and remote chemical sensing. In this context, Onera has been working on the development of non ... En savoir plus
Salinity gradient represents an interesting renewable energy source. Reverse ElectroDialysis (RED) is an ion exchange membrane-based process that convert directly the salinity gradient energy into electric current. Thereby, two solutions at different concentrations are fed into two ... En savoir plus
In this paper, the effect of a crack to the flow-induced vibration characteristics of supported pipes is investigated based on vibration method. In order to estimate the crack location and depth in the pipe, we need to utilize the variation of the difference between the natural ... En savoir plus
Carbon dioxide levels are increasing faster than in hundreds of thousands of years due to fossil fuels burning. A serious worldwide interest is growing towards the field of CO2 valorization as a step in transitioning away from fossil fuel economy at the same time of decreasing CO2 ... En savoir plus
The numerical results of the unconfined compression test on a sample of Articular Cartilage (AC) are discussed. AC is modelled as a load-bearing, deformable, fiber-reinforced material filled with an interstitial fluid and comprising statistically oriented collagen fibers, chondrocytes, ... En savoir plus
The vibration of an electrodynamic loudspeaker driver causes a resulting sound pressure. For simple pistonic vibration, there is a simple relationship between the vibration and the sound pressure. For complex vibration patterns, however, different parts of the vibrating surface ... En savoir plus
Benchmarks are important tools to verify computational models. In the research area of building physics, the so-called HAMSTAD (Heat, Air and Moisture STAnDardization) project is a very well known benchmark for the testing of simulation tools. In this paper we revisit this benchmark by ... En savoir plus
