Robust Design of Herringbone Grooved Journal Bearings using Multi-Objective Optimization with Artificial Neural Networks

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Soheyl Massoudi

Herringbone grooved journal bearings (HGJBs) are widely used in micro-turbocompressor applications due to their high load-carrying capacity, low friction, and oil-free solution. However, the performance of these bearings is sensitive to manufacturing devia ...

Dielectrophoretic Traps for Efficient Bead and Cell Trapping and Formation of Aggregates of Controlled Size and Composition

Philippe Renaud, Arnaud Bertsch, Clémentine Sophie Sarah Lipp

We present a microfluidic dielectrophoretic-actuated system designed to trap chosen single-cell and form controlled cell aggregates. A novel method is proposed to characterize the efficiency of the dielectrophoretic trapping, considering the flow speed but ...

Multi-configuration evaluation of a megajoule-scale high-temperature latent thermal test-bed

Sophia Haussener, Clemens Gregor Suter, Selmar Rudolf Binder, Nithin Mallya, Alberto Ortona, Maurizio Barbato

Thermal energy storage via latent heat provides an energy dense solution and, during discharge, a hot stream at a well-defined temperature. Utilizing metal phase change materials (PCMs) and high-temperature operation might enable fast (dis)charging and app ...

A generic methodology and a digital twin for zero defect manufacturing (ZDM) performance mapping towards design for ZDM

Foivos Psarommatis Giannakopoulos

Over recent years, the manufacturing industry has seen constant growth and change. From one side, it has been affected by the fourth industrial revolution (Industry 4.0). From the other side, it has had to enhance its ability to meet higher customer expect ...

Bias free multiobjective active learning for materials design and discovery

Berend Smit, Kevin Maik Jablonka, Shi-Lin Wang

The design rules for materials are clear for applications with a single objective. For most applications, however, there are often multiple, sometimes competing objectives where there is no single best material and the design rules change to finding the se ...

On the Application of Small-Scale Turbines in Industrial Steam Networks

François Maréchal, Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Ivan Daniel Kantor, Ansgar Weickgenannt

This study investigates the technical and economic feasibility of replacing throttling valves with smale-scale, oil-free turbomachinery in industrial steam networks. This is done from the perspective of the turbomachine, which has to be integrated into a n ...
