The need to evaluate natural resource investments under uncertainty has given rise to the development of real options valuation; however, the analysis of such investments has been restricted by the capabilities of existing valuation approaches. We re-visit ...
This thesis addresses the development and implementation of efficient and parallel algorithms for the numerical simulation of Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI) problems in hemodynamics. Indeed, hemodynamic conditions in large arteries are significantly aff ...
We show experimentally that an inexpensive glass microcapillary can accumulate lambda-phage DNA at its tip and deliver the DNA into the capillary using a combination of electro-osmotic flow, pressure-driven flow, and electrophoresis. We develop an efficien ...
Create a 3D micromodel (with microfluidics technique) as a representation of complex porous media (mimic groundwater environment); Experimental and numerical study of transport phenomenon in porous media ...
Essentially nonoscillatory (ENO) and weighted ENO (WENO) methods on equidistant Cartesian grids are widely employed to solve partial differential equations with discontinuous solutions. However, stable ENO/WENO methods on unstructured grids are less well s ...
Metallic aluminium plays a key role in our modern economy. Primary
metallic aluminium is produced by the transformation of aluminium
oxide using the Hall-Héroult industrial process. This process, which
requires enormous quantities of energy, consists in pe ...
We report on the investigation of an approach for modelling light transmission through systems consisting of several jointed optical fibres, in which the analytical modelling of the waveguides was replaced by Finite Element Modelling (FEM) simulations. To ...
We present novel medical devices for safe surgical puncturing, in particular a cannula for the treatment of retinal vein occlusion (RVO). This passive mechanical device has an adjustable stroke and exerts a puncturing force independent of operator applied ...
While the development of lab-on-chip is increasing, the lack of dedicated computer-aided design tools appears as a bottleneck preventing the emergence of large-scale industrial applications. One of the answer relied on 50 years of CAD experience in microel ...
We report arrays of latching microfluidic valves based on shape memory polymers (SMPs), and show their applications as reagent mixers and as peristaltic pumps. The valve design takes advantage of the SMP's multiple stable shapes and over a hundred-fold sti ...
