The effect of static magnetic fields (SMF) on living matter such cell cultures and living organisms has been a promising research field. Efforts have been given in the understanding of the underlying mechanisms and interaction between the field and the biological system with its ... En savoir plus
Several experimental evidences show that macroscopic description of heat transfer phenomena in semiconductors through Fourier law is no longer accurate when the system length and time scales are comparable with the mean free path and relaxation time of the energy carriers (phonons). In ... En savoir plus
Thawing processes of raw tuna are widely used as a unit operation dedicated to the canning industry. At the industrial scale, the water immersion process remains the main relevant process for thawing large tuna fishes. The fish is then butchered and the flesh obtained is precooked before ...

Patterned two-dimensional (2D) materials have recently become promising candidates for separation processes in both gaseous and aqueous phases, due to mechanical strength and atomic thickness. Conventional separation technique using 2D materials are limited by the surface charge of 2D ... En savoir plus
Introduction: Acoustic levitators are used to levitate small samples (ca. 0.01 - 6 mm) at a stable position in a gas or liquid environment. Acoustic levitators were first developed und used for experiments in space (1970s, by NASA / ESA), the application later became terrestrial (1990s). ... En savoir plus
Micromachined ultrasound transducers can work as a sensor or actuator for measuring fluid speed and direction, mixing and exciting particles (sonication), taking images (ultrasonography), non-destructive testing and many other purposes in various fields. In this work, a COMSOL ... En savoir plus
Energy harvesting from a fluid flow using piezoelectric materials is a relatively recent topic that has been investigated experimentally and numerically [1, 2]. Its possible application in natural water currents represents an interesting strategy to easily harvest renewable energy from ... En savoir plus
Energy loss from fluids flowing across long distances presents a problem in many applications. In the oil and gas industry, for example, crude oil can change in viscosity when modest changes in temperature are realized. This can lead to added pumping power requirement and thus more heat ...

High temperature thermodynamic data are crucial for a wide variety of applications in nuclear and aeronautic domains as well as material production processes like glass formation or casting. Contactless acquisition methods are preferred to avoid chemical interactions with the container. ... En savoir plus
In the last few years printable electronics has gained a great deal of interest since it promises mechanical flexibility and extremely low production costs. One approach to achieve printable electronic devices relies on the usage of specific inks containing e.g. dispersed semiconductor ... En savoir plus
