Background: Even though the direct nose-to-brain drug delivery has multiple advantages, its application is limited by the low delivery efficiency (<1%) to the olfactory region with standard nasal devices. Novel delivery techniques are needed that can deliver clinically relevant dosage ... 詳細を見る

Insulator-based dielectrophoresis (iDEP) employs arrays of electrically insulator posts in a microfluidic device to create dielectrophoretic forces that affect particle movement (Figure 1). The trapping performance of iDEP devices involves a careful balance between electrokinetics (EK) ... 詳細を見る

Significant submarine mineral deposits form when hot, metal-laden, saline fluids emerge onto the seafloor and mix with ambient seawater. Resulting density changes of fluid mixtures can trigger fluid buoyancy reversals, brine pool formation, and metal accumulation (Figure 1). While some ... 詳細を見る

This paper reports on the application of COMSOL Multiphysics’ Richard\'s Equation Interface in the assessment of irrigation moisture sensors for detecting the level of water saturation in a spatial variably saturated soil. The Richard\'s Equation (in COMSOL) provides the interface which ... 詳細を見る

In our study of chaotic mixing, 3D velocity measurements (u,v,w) are required for evaluation of a micro mixer using a mix-prediction algorithm. The hybrid approach presented here combines 2D measurements, an imperfect numerical model, and appropriate fitting parameters. Because our ... 詳細を見る

Acoustic streaming (AS) describes a physical phenomenon where an oscillating sound emitter induces a steady fluid motion. Metal processing industry applies this treatment for grain morphology adjustments during the solidification of metal. Improvement and further development of this ... 詳細を見る

Sediment transport in shallow water is of concern in many hydro-ecological problems. Erosion or sedimentation processes are not only relevant in perennial systems as rivers, lakes, reservoirs and coastal regions, but also in ephemeral phenomena like gullies, inundations and floods. ... 詳細を見る

The extensional flow of viscoelastic flow is encountered during fibre spinning processes. A variety of polymers such as polyesters, polyacrylonitrile, rayon, acrylic, spandex etc are manufactured using this process. In the spinning process, polymer melt/ solution is extruded in the form ... 詳細を見る

Composite behavior when undergoing to low energy impact has been investigated thorough modelling and simulation computation. We consider the dynamic impact among a small granular material piece and a large composite material body. Really, our investigation will to simulate the ... 詳細を見る

In this work, we present a number of scoping calculations that have been carried out to design an in-situ redox experiment (Figure 1) focused on assessing potential changes in the pH and redox conditions and in the buffering capacity of the Olkiluoto bedrock (i.e. the site for the ... 詳細を見る
