Computational methods are now a cornerstone in the study of fluid flow, heat transfer and mass transfer phenomena, underpinning modern simulations that inform both fundamental research and engineering ...

The mathematical modelling of free and moving boundary problems are an important topic in engineering, industry, technology and theoretical sciences. These models allow us to make calculations ...

In Abraham Stroock's lab at Cornell, the world's first synthetic tree sits in a palm-sized piece of clear, flexible hydrogel -- the type found in soft contact lenses. Stroock and graduate student ...

Broadband infrared (IR) resonators have been developed by Fractal Antenna Systems Inc. Infrared development for efficient fractal “metasurface” heat transfer is likely to be 2 to 5 years away By ...

The introduction of the catalytic converter into the engine compartment has led to severe requirements for thermal insulation. The converter and the exhaust manifold constitute significant heat ...

New carbon-nanotube breakthroughs could help create a far more efficient heat transfer method in CPU cores -- and help return us to classic scaling methods. Share on Facebook (opens in a new window) ...
