This investigation examines experimentally the behavior of swirled jets produced by axial flow fans blowing into a crossflow at low velocity ratios. The main difference with non-swirl cases is an asymmetry of the dominant kidney vortex and a slight distort ...
A wireless sensor platform for use in ultralow-power wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is presented. The proposed round sensor (RoSe) node is physically robust, is resistant to humidity, and has a housing that can be in direct contact with food. These charac ...

This project deals with the study of a quasi-isothermal scroll compression/expansion obtained by spray injection of water. The spray injection process is first described from the theoretical point of view as it concerns the droplets formation and breakup p ...
Micro-molding can be used for the cost-effective fabrication of elements such as active or passive components in MEMS devices, hydrophobic surfaces, cell-growth scaffolds or optical components such micro-lens arrays and gratings. This method is also partic ...
A methodology is presented to determine the saturation curve of a resin/glass fabric system, during infiltration in a transparent mould under constant flow rate. Video acquisitions are transformed by image analysis into saturation level versus position and ...
In this project we target a desired viscoelastic properties of PDMS for the application of thin wall membrane uses as a container to support soft test sample biomaterials during mechanical compression tests. The biocompatible PDMS membrane is produced by a ...
Emission reduction from civil aviation has been intensively addressed in the scientific community in recent years. The combined use of novel aircraft engine architectures such as open rotor engines and lightweight materials offer the potential for fuel sav ...
A comprehensive understanding of the development of residual strains in composite processing is essential to manufacture high quality composite parts. In this paper, the use of fibre Bragg grating (FBG) optical sensors was investigated to measure in situ t ...
Swirl jets in crosflow are investigated experimentally and numerically. The main difference with non-swirl cases is an asymmetry of the dominant kidney vortex and a slight distortion of the jet trace downstream of the injection hole. Jet rotation, at relat ...
Mechanical spectroscopy has been used to qualify possible improvements of the mechanical properties of acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene-carbon nanotubes (ABS-CNTs) composites. The properties of ABS matrix are first investigated. Two relaxations that mark th ...
