Hydrodynamic effects of air sparging on hollow fiber membrane filtration in a bubble column reactor
Published 2014“…Two axial locations were tested in order to differentiate the effect of flow regimes on the cake formation. Moreover, two aeration schemes of continuous and alternate air sparging were also studied to understand the associated flow dynamics and its influence on the membrane filtration performance. …”

Modeling and analysis of wireless networks with interference management
Published 2017“…Numerical comparisons reveal that the new bounds outperform all known bounds and approximations, and are remarkably tight in all operational regimes of interest. The key in deriving these tight and yet simple bounds is to capture the local neighborhood information around the typical node accurately while simplifying the far fi eld to attain tractability. …”

Cavity QED of superradiant phase transition in two dimensional materials
Published 2018“…The complete excitation spectrum in both the normal phase and superradiant phase regimes is given. At last, in contrast to the single mode case, multimode coupling of cavity photon and cyclotron transition can greatly reduce the critical vacuum Rabi frequency required for quantum phase transition, and dramatically enhance the superradiant emission by fast modulating the Hamiltonian. …”

Science with integral field spectrographs present and future
Published 2016“…We use HSIM to predict the performance of the current HARMONI design, through point source sensitivities and noise regimes for each operating mode. We find that HARMONI will be predominately read-out noise limited in the <em>R</em>- and <em>H</em>-bands, but heavily background-limited for the majority of <em>K</em>- band modes. …”
