Design, simulation, and testing of a low cost laser micromachining system for flexible and rapid tissue-on-chip fabrication.
… critical limitations in current manufacturing methods such as soft lithography, particularly in terms of material compatibility, feature resolution, and scalability. We developed a comprehensive finite element method (FEM) model for the laser ablation process, incorporating key physical …

Multi-Angle Beam Generation and Steering via Meander-Line-Coil EMATs
… on their theoretical foundations, simulated modelling, and experimental validations. Whilst the detection of defects was not investigated, this work thoroughly examines the EMAT’s capability as a conventional transducer to steer the angle of its oblique ultrasonic waves. This culminates in …

Geomechanical Reservoir Model Calibration and Uncertainty Assessment from Microseismic Data
… to infer reservoir property distributions. To model the geothermal reservoir stimulation, a fully coupled thermo-poroelastic finite element method (FEM) model has been developed to handle the coupled process of heat transport, fluid flow, and rock deformation. To simulate the stimulation …

Concrete microstructure homogenization technique with application to model concrete serviceability
… properties. In this dissertation, with several models being given progressively, an innovative homogenization model of concrete is proposed in which concrete is regarded as cement and aggregate particles connected by interfacial transition zone (ITZ). Defined on a representative volume element …

Hall Effect Modeling in FEM Simulators and Comparison to Experimental Results in Silicon and Printed Sensors
<p>Finite element method simulation models for thin-film semiconductor-based Hall sensors were developed using secondary data in order to understand their behavior under strong magnetic fields. Given a device geometry and charge carrier density and mobility, the models accurately calculated sensor …
