Parametric Study of an Air Charged Franchot Engine with Novel Hot and Cold Isothermalizers
Inventions, 2017 The Stirling engine is an external combustion engine that uses heat exchangers to enhance the addition and removal of energy. This makes the engine power-dense but expensive, less efficient and complicated. In this contribution, the Stirling engine based

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT ‘Hard’ natural sciences have extensively been used to provide evidence that climate change is happening and climate action is needed. If the contribution of our economic activities to disturbing our climate systems is now largely accepted, the way in which we design and operationalise ‘climate action’—how we transition to more sustainable ...

Scalable Room‐Temperature Terahertz Graphene Cameras
Small Methods, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Terahertz (THz) imaging has emerged as a powerful tool for non‐destructive, label‐free analysis across several scientific disciplines, ranging from materials science to biomedical research. By capturing the spatial‐dependent information in a broad range of frequencies, this technique enables the identification of chemical composition ...
