A three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics model for flow through porous media.
(2011)This thesis covers the development of a model for fluid flow which incorporates computational fluid dynamics simulations using three-dimensional planar porous media networks. Porous media are introduced along with applications ... -
Design criteria of a transcutaneous power delivery system for implantable devices.
(2012)Implantable cardiac assist devices such as artificial hearts and blood pumps are a rapidly growing therapy used for treating moderate to severe congestive heart failure. While current treatments offer improved heart failure ... -
Development of a programmable integrated switch matrix (PRISM).
(2017)This research project involved the development of a fully customizable, user-defined hardware-software suite for automated signal routing with function expandability. Because of the above-mentioned characteristics, the ... -
Development of machines to engineer biocompatible matrices in ligament, filtering and 3D cell culture applications.
(2018)This thesis investigates three possible applications of engineered matrices manufactured from Polycaprolactone and Nylon-6 using electrospinning techniques. A method to manufacture bio compatible scaffolds for biomedical ... -
Flows in a rotating cylinder.
(2010)The purpose of this work is to focus on studying Görtler vortices inside a rotating cylinder. The literature review chapter, (Chapter 1), gives us insight from Görtler and Hämmerlin on the dominant - centrifugal and ... -
Interistitial laser immunotherapy for treatment of metastatic cancer.
(2011)Cancer is one of the leading causes of death in the world. Although widely used, currently available cancer treatment modalities such as surgery, chemotherapy and radiation have limited effects in curing the disease and ... -
Modelling wireless power transfer using an array of Tesla coils.
(2017)Wireless power transmission, or WPT, is a well-demonstrated property in electrical science and physics. Coil-and-wave transmission (CWT) consists of two Tesla coils, one powered by a controlled voltage source v src and one ... -
Monitoring temperature distribution during laser-tissue interaction for cancer treatment using magnetic resonance thermometry.
(2009)One of the major challenges in the field of cancer treatment is to induce a prolonged systemic immune response. Laser immunotherapy has shown its potential as a minimally invasive alternative for many cancer patients due ... -
Time-dependent perturbation theory approach to the quantum motion of a particle in a Paul trap.
(2013)The main objective of this study is to investigate the quantum mechanical lifetime of a trapped ion in a Paul trap. The motivation for this research is that there are several applications of trapped ion devices such as ...
