We present a finite-element method to calculate 3-D surface profiles of refractive microlenses fabricated by melting-resist technology (reflow technique). The geometry of the microlenses can be arbitrary. Surface tension and gravity are taken into account. ...
The flow investigation in a elbow draft tube is presented. After a review of the existing works related to the flow analysis of such component, the need of an experimental validation of the CFD tools is discussed with respect the practical interest of impr ...

Vascular remodeling is an adaptive response to variations in the hemodynamic environment acting on the arterial wall. Remodeling translates into changes of structure, geometry and mechanical properties of the artery. Our aim was to study the remodeling res ...

This paper presents the modeling strategy developed for the design of a planar solid oxide fuel cell repeat element. Design goal are to reach good performance (power density) and reliability (ie. limit risk of failure and degradation). This challenging pro ...
We show how Metropolis light transport can be extended both in the underlying theoretical framework and the algorithmic implementation to incorporate volumetric scattering. We present a generalization of the path integral formulation that handles anisotrop ...
A novel design for interdigitated band electrodes is described. The electrode is built by successive printing of conductive and insulating layers on a steel substrate. This geometry exhibits a high performance for the hypochlorite electrogeneration from se ...
A simple method is proposed for the estn. of the current bypass from exptl. current potential (i-U) curves measured for a bipolar reactor and with a one element cell of similar geometry. The model is valid only in the region where a linear i-U relation was ...
The design of a diffration grating used as an output coupler for a Fabry-Perot resonator is presented. We then consider the problem of determining the distortion and the cross-polarization of the incident Gaussian beam. Different types of gratings and plan ...
This publication presents the application of Non-Linear Programming (NLP) to the design of AC induction motors driving hydraulic pumps on commercial aircrafts. In addition to the usual constraints on the geometry or on the efficiency of the motor, the spec ...
