A theoretical study of gas adsorption on α-quartz (0 0 1) for CO2 enhanced natural gas recovery
( Elsevier B.V. , 2020 , Article)The adsorption of gas molecules (CO2, CH4, H2O, H2S and N2) on the “dense” (0 0 1) surface of α-quartz has been investigated by means of Density Functional Theory (DFT) for the molecular characterization of Enhanced Gas ... -
A thermochromic ink heater-cooler color change system for medical blood simulation
( SciTePress , 2021 , Conference Paper)Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a modified form of CPB that supports intensive care patients' vital functions during recovery from cardiac or pulmonary trauma. ECMO, although lifesaving, is vulnerable to a ... -
A thermodynamic study of propanol reforming in presence of hydrazine for hydrogen production
( Elsevier Ltd , 2021 , Article)Thermodynamic analysis of hydrogen production from propanol reforming reactions, by decomposition and steam reforming, in presence of hydrazine was evaluated as a function of temperature (300-900 K) at a constant pressure ... -
A three dimensional extended Arlequin method for dynamic fracture
( Elsevier B.V. , 2015 , Article)We propose a concurrent multiscale method for fracture coupling two three-dimensional continuum domains. Fracture in both domains is treated by the extended finite element method. The coupling is based on the Arlequin ... -
A threshold-based opportunistic MAC protocol for MIMO wireless sensor networks
( IEEE , 2012 , Conference Paper)In this paper, we consider a single-hop wireless sensor network where both the sensor nodes and the controller node have multiple antennas. We focus on single beam opportunistic communication and propose a threshold-based ... -
A toolset for the specification and verification of embedded systems
( IEEE , 2003 , Conference Paper)Because of many malfunctions of some critical real-time systems (Pentium bug, Ariane lance rocket), which have caused life and billion dollars loss, computer aided formal methods have been developed and successfully applied ... -
