Novel self-installing anchor for offshore applications
Problem statement With the growth of oil and gas industry into deep water, the offshore infrastructures have developed to resist deep water conditions up to 3000m. The nature of deep-water environment requires foundations of these systems to sustain a high vertical load while maintaining a reasonable installation cost. However, as the loads sustained...
Novel electrowetting-based microfluidic system for heat pipe applications
Problem statement Currently, heat pipes use a passive wick to pump liquid back from the condenser to the evaporator. The heat transport capacity of these heat pipes is limited by the capillary pressure generated in the internal wick which pumps condensate to the evaporator. Transporting heat over long distances is challenging, since the fluid transport...
