As water networks around the world age, leakage and water main breaks are becoming an increasing problem. Leakage rates of 10-30% are typical in North America, and most cities suffer from hundreds (or thousands) of water main breaks every year. Echologics has developed the EchoShore ... En savoir plus
Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide. In the United States, coronary artery disease accounts for 1 in 7 cardiovascular deaths. Cells in the blood and blood vessels are known to respond to alterations of the mechanical forces of their environment, such as blood ... En savoir plus
The unconventional shale gas reservoirs have a major contribution to hydrocarbon production in recent years. The hydraulic stimulation technique is being used to enhance the productivity of the target reservoirs. The drilled wellbore and existing natural fractures in the host rocks have ... En savoir plus
Cilia are slender micro-organelles (200 nm diameter, 10 µm long) that generate propagating waves to propel cells or move fluid. The cytoskeletal structure of the cilium (the axoneme) consists of 9 outer microtubule doublets and 2 central microtubule singlets. Outer doublets are connected ... En savoir plus
Droplet-based microfluidic systems are emerging as an ideal platform for the high-throughput screening of eukaryotic cells aimed to understand the complex, multidimensional, and dynamic biological processes [1]. Here, two aqueous droplets – each containing a eukaryotic cell – suspended ... En savoir plus
Near-field scanning optical microscopy (NSOM) unifies the potential of scanning probe technology with the power of optical microscopy as if like having eyes into the nanoworld. To efficiently channel the illumination light to the tip apex and acquire optical images beyond the diffraction ... En savoir plus
Helicon Injected Inertial Plasma Electrostatic Rocket (HIIPER) [1] is a plasma thruster being researched at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. It has been shown in Figure 1. It involves a helicon source along with an Inertial Electrostatic Confinement (IEC) chamber. IEC is a fusion ... En savoir plus
Helicon Injected Inertial Plasma Electrostatic Rocket (HIIPER) [1] is an advanced space propulsion system being studied in University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. It has been depicted in Figure 1. An experimental setup is already being used to gather dynamics of plasma with the help of ... En savoir plus
COMSOL® models of basal body deformation using the Beam Interface are compared to electron tomograms of Tetrahymena thermophila basal bodies high-pressure frozen while undergoing beating deformation. This approach provides insight into the nanoscale structures and internal forces ... En savoir plus
Computational fluid dynamics of particle-laden fluid flows through a 90-degree pipe elbow were completed at Reynolds numbers 1,000 and 10,000; for different elbow curvature ratios of 1.0, 1.5, and 2.5; and for particles with different Stokes numbers of 0.05, 0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 5.0, and 10.0. ...
