The hypervapotron structure was considered to be a feasible configuration to meet the high heat-dissipating requirement of divertors in nuclear fusion devices. In this work, symmetric CuCrZr-based transverse microchannels (TMHC) and longitudinal microchannels (LMHC) with an integrated hypervapotron channel were proposed and manufactured, and subcoo...

Several engineering systems currently use microchannel heat sinks. In order to increase the performance of these devices, optimisation according to the first and second law of thermodynamics is employed. One way to achieve the goal is to modify the geometry of the cross-section, as is done in this paper for square ducts, having the walls at a unifo...

High-grade gliomas (HGGs) and glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) are characterized by a heterogeneous and aggressive population of tissue-infiltrating cells that promote both destructive tissue remodeling and aberrant vascularization of the brain. The formation of defective and permeable blood vessels and microchannels and destructive tissue remodeling ...
