RISLow-Cost and Rapid Shaping of Nitinol for Medical Device Prototyping
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper describes the methodology for rapid prototyping of nitinol structures by heat setting. Nitinol is a shape memory alloy commonly used in implantable medical devices. The proposed technique, based on 3D printing, ...
Purification of Single Walled Carbon Nanotubes Based on Thermocapillary Flow
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Singlewalled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) are of significant interest in the electronic materials research community due to their excellent electrical properties and many promising applications. However, SWNTs grow as mixture ...
Thermomechanical Modeling of Scanning Joule Expansion Microscopy Imaging of Single Walled Carbon Nanotube Devices
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An analytical model, validated by experiments and finite element simulations, is developed to study the thermal imaging of singlewalled carbon nanotube (SWNT) devices by scanning Joule expansion microscopy (SJEM). A simple ...
A Proof-of-Concept Demonstration for a Novel Soft Ventricular Assist Device
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Patients treated by current ventricular assist devices (VADs) suffer from various post implantation complications including gastrointestinal bleeding and arteriovenous malformation. These issues are related to intrinsically ...
