The system is built upon four foundational pillars: Autonomous Safety: Utilizing MQ-series gas sensors and flame detectors to provide real-time protection against fire and gas leaks through automated ...

Abstract: In this article, a novel vortex-induced vibration (VIV)-based passive flow sensor for a fluidic flowmeter using macrofiber composite (MFC) is proposed. Since the flowmeter is partially ...

A nanodevice developed at EPFL produces an autonomous, stable current from evaporating saltwater by using heat and light to control the movement of ions and electrons. Previously, researchers in the ...

For his Engineering Doctorate (EngD) program, ITC researcher Rodrigoandrés Morales developed a so-called digital twin: a ...

A new microscale gas chromatography system integrates all fluidic components into a single chip for the first time. The design leverages three Knudsen pumps that move gas molecules using heat ...

The workings of electricity are often introduced to students by way of a comparison to water, with voltage analogous to ...

Background The patency of intracranial stents may not be reliably assessed with either CT angiography or MR angiography due to imaging artifacts. We investigated the potential of ultra-high resolution ...

Abstract: Multiple water quality sensors are required to construct a network for continuous and precise monitoring of water quality in natural environments. Therefore, low-cost sensors are necessary ...
