This solid-state thermal switch can significantly increase the functions of the thermal mass in buildings by actively controlling the thermal resistivity of insulation layers to optimize the energy storage and utilization to shed, shift, and shape HVAC loads on demand.
The interface gasket for building envelope is designed to enhance the installation of windows and other objects into building openings.
An innovative system for automating the surveillance and manipulation of plant tissues using advanced machine vision and robotic tools.
The widespread use of inexpensive salt hydrate-based phase change materials, or PCMs, has been prevented by a key technical challenge: phase separation, also known as incongruency, which results in the significant degradation of the materials' ability to store thermal energy o
Adhesive and sealant materials are crucial in construction, automotive, and electronics industries. However, most adhesives fail under stress or environmental conditions like dust, water, or wear.
The vast majority of energy conversion technologies and industrial processes depend on heat exchangers for transferring heat between fluids.
Application of thermally anisotropic composite materials coupled with a heat sink/source can redirect and reduce heat flows through a building envelope (walls and roofs).
