Nanoparticle Clay Slurries
Project ID: TECH2024-26 Background Shear thickening refers to the phenomenon in rheology where the viscosity of a fluid increases as the rate at which the fluid is deformed by a shearing force (i.e., the shear rate) increases. When more force is applied to the fluid, the fluid becomes more resistant to flow. Shear thinning is when the viscosity decreases...

PMU-Embedded Analytics for Online Event Detection and Classification in Power Grids
The energy requirement of the world is increasing exponentially every year. With the power demand sites concentrated in the region with the highest population density, energy production sites must be located remotely. This isolation requires lengthy and complicated grids to be designed and manufactured to transmit power over long distances. Grid failures...

All-Fiber Multicore Fiber Laser Devices
Researchers at the University of Arizona have developed a compact, power-scalable, alignment-free fiber laser that takes a new approach to stabilizing phase-locked operation of multi-core fiber lasers by completely removing all free space optical components. This high-brightness, all-fiber laser package uses passive optical fiber spliced at both ends...
