Miniature Air Vehicle Controlled and Propelled by Active Flow Control
Miniature Air Vehicles (MAV’s) with Active Flow Control (AFC) is an aviation invention in which the means for thrust generation, flight control and lift augmentation are created by the same fluidic actuators, located within the MAV. This can solve many of the problems that inhibit further development of the field. The most compelling reason for […] Read More >
Flexible Blade Rheometer
The innovation is a low-cost flexible extension to the standard off-the-shelf rotational blade rheometer. State of the art rotational rheometers use fixed and rigid blades, which rotate against a fluid and have limited accuracy at extremely high or low viscosities. Our inventions replaces the rigid blades with flexible blades work by utilizing fluid mechanics and […] Read More >
Improving Power Output in Partial Shading of Photovoltaic Panels
The Invention A controllable circuit for maximizing and stabilizing output power in PV panels under conditions of partial shading. The low cost high reliability device allows maximum power to be extracted during uneven shading conditions. Furthermore, the output power curve is quite linear without multiple peaks which makes it easy to sync several PV sources […] Read More >

Metal alloy nano-foams as Catalysts for Methane Dry Reforming during GTL
Today, about 90% of catalysts for GTL technology take the form of supported nanocatalysts. In these materials, metallic nanocrystals (the active catalytic phase) are dispersed about a highly porous ceramic oxide (inactive). These materials are advantageous because they provide exceptionally large surface areas for processing large amounts of gas, however, they all suffer from a […] Read More >
Plug-and-play realization of the virtual infinite capacitor
In high power applications, especially where AC/DC or DC/AC conversion are involved, the high voltage DC bus suffers from voltage ripples. Low frequency current smoothing is required to minimize ripple voltage on the DC bus, which may affect other circuitry connected to the bus. Voltage smoothing is required in multiple applications, including photovoltaic and wind […] Read More >
