Project ID: D2017-42 Background Many vascular system problems stem from insufficient blood flow. One of the main causes is a blockage within veins known as a blood clot, or thrombus. This can occur due to different phenomenological reasons. The ultimate goal of any percutaneous modality to treat these conditions of the arterial or venous system...

Rectal Retractor for damage-prevention during radiation therapy

Project ID: D2016-57 + D2018-64 Background Effective radiation treatment delivers the maximum possible dose to a tumor while minimizing radiation exposure to the surrounding healthy tissue. Curative doses of radiation can induce chronic morbidities in nearby critical structures. For most cancers in the pelvic region, the dose-limiting organ is the...

Method for Processing Reactive/Nonreactive Materials Using Binder Agent

Novel Binding Agent Removal Process Background Existing binder jetting processes struggle with completely removing the binder, which leads to residual carbon that affects product quality. Residual carbon, originating from the binder, poses significant challenges, particularly for reactive materials such as nickel-titanium ((NiTi) alloys and for other...

A new design of high performance elastocaloric system by additive manufacturing

Solid-State High-Performance Cooling System Background Refrigeration and air conditioning currently account for approximately 17% of total global electricity consumption and approximately 40% of building energy consumption. Hydrofluorocarbons used in 99% of current cooling systems are green house gases that warm at a rate 100s of times greater than...
