The search for physics beyond the Standard Model using low-energy neutrons requires, among other things, very precise transport and manipulation of the neutron spin. In this talk some examples of coil design for stringent magnetic field uniformity requirements and complicated geometries ... En savoir plus
While electrostatic actuators feature prominently among the most widely employed classes of actuators for microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), conventional embodiments of these devices (e.g., parallel plate structures) notoriously suffer from several significant drawbacks. Most ... En savoir plus
In recent years, with the rise of quantum optical technologies, there has been a spurring research interest growing on single-photon emitters (SPE). To date, the focus in engineering improved SPE has been mainly towards better enhancement overlooking the tenuous manufacturing process ... En savoir plus
Metamaterials are composites of subwavelength structures that can be engineered to affect the propagation of a wave in specific ways as it travels through the material. While metamaterials can be used with any type of wave, they are most commonly found in electromagnetic waves. However, ... En savoir plus
As post-LHC particle accelerators of higher energy become prohibitively expensive, physisicists are turning to precision low-energy measurements of fundamental symmetries as an avenue for the discovery of new physics. A common requirement of many of these experiments is precision ... En savoir plus
Our group developed an experimental millimetric capsule intended to release chemicals or drugs. The delivery mechanism of such device relies on the thermal expansion of carbon-elastomer composites which deform upon irradiation of light supplied by a Laser diode through an optical fiber. ...

In this work we report on an investigation of the effect of the magnetic particles size on the effective macroscopic behavior of magnetorheological elastomers (MREs). MREs are a class of smart materials known for their tunable deformation. They are composite materials which consist of ... En savoir plus
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are a large group of chemicals that can be found in many products that we use to build and maintain our homes. Some of the VOCs such as benzene, formaldehyde, ethylene glycol, etc. can be found in our everyday life in the form of paints, cleaning agents, ... En savoir plus
This paper describes the utilization of COMSOL Multiphysics® package for the finite element modeling of an educational closed-loop water tank. The custom water tank was built to be part of the fluid mechanics lab belonging to the Mechanical Engineering Program of SUNY New Paltz, NY. The ... En savoir plus
Energetic materials that can readily burn are used throughout both private and government industries in manufacturing of, among other things, small arms ammunition and rockets. Collections of that material when ignited can pose a risk of burns for people in the immediate vicinity. The ... En savoir plus
