MEMS devices employ the mechanical behavior of microstructures for sensing, controlling, and actuating. Their function, reliability, and fatigue life greatly depend on the microstructure’s mechanical behavior. Microstructures ...

Due to recent breakthroughs in mini/micro-scale electronics systems, the need for an innovative thermal management solution to dissipate large quantity of heat from a limited space has grown increasingly to assure device ...

The recent remarkable effects of global warming and a noticeable rise in power consumption are leading to major research on household refrigerators. In addition to that, alternative refrigerants have opened a new room for ...

As the energy industry develops and natural resources become more scarce, scientists are focusing their attention on finding new materials where comes the emergence of nanocom- posites and their applications in various ...

There is a considerable need and scope for improved prediction and approximation of wetting behavior on chemically patterned surfaces for designing such surfaces with tunable wettability. In this study, anisotropic wetting ...

Combustion takes place in the engine combustor of high-speed aircraft engines, and exhaust gas escapes through a nozzle providing thrust for propulsion. During the typical operation of such engines, the combustor undergoes ...

Natural frequency is a system’s most important dynamic attribute. Resonance occurs when a time-varying force is applied to a system with a frequency that is equal to the system's natural frequency. This will result in the ...

Aortic stenosis (AS) and mitral regurgitation (MR) are the two most prevalent diseases in aged individuals. Studying AS and MR in clinical settings is expensive and time-consuming. Instead, we used a finite element model ...

In high-speed airbreathing engines like scramjets, supersonic combustion takes place in the engine combustor from which heat flux can propagate to the inlet isolator situated upstream. Due to this propagation, the wall ...

Surface irrigation is the main irrigation system widely used in Bangladesh. An efficient way of irrigation is the usage of the pressure compensating (PC) emitter (also known as drip irrigation), which reduces both energy ...
