Abstract:
The many advances of nano technology extensively revolutionize mechanics. A tremendous need is growing to further bridge the gap between the classical mechanics and the nano scale for many applications at different engineering fields. For instance, the themes of interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary topics are getting more and more attention especially when the coherency is needed in diagnosing and treating terminal diseases or overcoming environmental threats. The fact that how mechanical, biomedical and electrical engineering can contribute to diagnosing and treating a tumor per se is both

Abstract:
<p> Interest in thermoelectric devices (TEDs) for waste-heat recovery applications has recently increased due to a growing global environmental consciousness and the potential economic benefits of increasing cycle efficiency. Unlike conventional waste-heat recovery systems like the organic Rankine cycle, TEDs are steady-state, scalable apparatus that directly convert a temperature difference into electricity using the Seebeck effect. The benefits of TEDS, namely steady-state operation and scalability, are often outweighed by their low performance in terms of thermal conversion efficiency and p

Granular-fluid mixtures flowing down an incline in the grain-inertia regime were studied experimentally and analytically. The equations of motion are based on the kinetic theory for granular flow.

The other is based on the kinetic theory for granular flow. Solutions for dry granular flow down a chute are studied in order to compare both methods.

The definition and quantification of complexity is a source of debate. A promising answer, from Crutch field, Shalizi and co-workers, identifies complexity with the amount of information required to optimally predict the future of a process. Computational mechanics computes this quantity for discrete time series; quantifying the complexity and generating minimal, optimally predictive models. Here we adapt and apply these methods to two very different problems. First, we extend computational mechanics to continuous data which cluster around discrete values.

Over a cell population, kinetic measurements show that the cell surface area A scales as A ~ K2, where K is the number of nuclei, indicating a flat morphology.
