The USS Cole incident refers to a terrorist attack on the U.S. Navy guided-missile destroyer USS Cole (DDG-67) that occurred on October 12, 2000, while the ship was refueling in the Yemeni port of Aden. The attack was carried out by suicide bombers from the terrorist organization al-Qaeda using a small boat laden with explosives….
WHAT IS SPRAY DRYING ? Spray drying is a process which transforms a liquid to a powder. The liquid is pumped, and a liquid mist is created through nozzles or atomizers. The mist is then dried by hot gas (mainly air in the Food and Beverage industry).A spray dryer is a very large and expensive…
Le spécialiste de la simulation, Ansys, a démontré, grâce à une simulation numérique, l’efficacité de la désinfection robotisée par lumière UV, une technologie envisagée par Airbus et Boeing pour éradiquer le Covid-19 de la cabine de leurs avions. Avec la reprise progressive des activités économiques, la désinfection des lieux clos devient un enjeu majeur pour…

Abstract—This paper presents the prediction of air flow, humidity and temperature patterns in a co-current pilot plant spray dryer fitted with a pressure nozzle using a three dimensional model. The modelling was done with a Computational Fluid Dynamic package (Fluent 6.3), in which the gas phase is modeled as continuum using the Euler approach and…
Social distancing, also known as physical distancing What is it? Social distancing, also known as physical distancing, is the practice of maintaining physical distance from others and avoiding large gatherings, with the intent of reducing the rate of transmission of infectious diseases. COVID-19 has brought social distancing practices to the forefront worldwide as a means…
Computational Biofluidics and Biomechanics Laboratory The CDC has recommended people maintain six feet of separation to lessen the spread of COVID-19. But is six feet enough? According to Oklahoma State University researchers, it may depend on the environment. A team of engineers in OSU’s College of Engineering, Architecture and Technology is researching what effects social distancing…

“Young people today just don’t have what it takes”, is the frustation voiced by so many employers. In my opinion there is nothing wrong with our young people, it’s what we are doing to them that makes too many unemployable. We are perpetuating an already massive problem with high youth unemployment. there are two prime…
