Innovative display technique for the building envelope: A research on electrowetting as smart glazing

This thesis is about electrowetting. Electrowetting is an advanced display technique that is going to take a part in the display competition against LCD screens and LED displays. Display techniques are becoming very important for the building envelope. The desire to have a responsive or adaptive building skin has never been as serious as the...

Electric-field enhanced fluidized beds: A low-energy bubble control method

Reducing the size of gas bubbles can significantly improve the performance of gas-solid fluidized beds one of the most common reactor types in the chemical industry applied for such diverse systems as gasoline and plastics production to foods processing. However, a control of bubbles in these reactors is difficult to realize without measures...
