A Study on Phase Change Materials at Low Thermal Mass with Micro-Electro-Mechanical Resonators
DownloadSpring 2020
Micro-electromechanical systems or MEMS is a modern technology used to create tiny, integrated devices or systems that combine mechanical and electrical components. These miniaturized devices can sense, control and actuate on the micro and nano scales, and generate observable effects on the macro...

A study on pressure vacuum swing adsorption based process design for carbon dioxide capture
DownloadFall 2017
In order to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, realizing an energy efficient carbon dioxide capture process is important. Adsorption based carbon capture is a potential low energy separation technology. Although there have been considerable advances in this field, a full technological maturity of...
