Abstract: Shape-memory Alloys are attractive for many potential applications. In an attempt to provide ideas and guidelines for the development of new shape-memory alloys, this paper reports on a series ...

Abstract: This paper reports a single-component two-dimensional pseudo-potential phase change model using lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) to investigate the enhancement of pool boiling heat transfer inside an array of solid pillars ...

Abstract: The design of reliable micro electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) requires understanding of material properties of devices, especially for free-standing thin structures such as membranes, bridges, and ...
