When it comes to laparoscopy in the operating room, there’s no room for inefficiencies, variability, and workforce challenges. Laparoscopy refers to the surgical procedure of accessing the abdomen and pelvis with minimally invasive incisions in the skin. These methods lead to a shorter hospital stay, faster recovery time, and less pain, bleeding, and scarring, and Asensus makes this process more efficient.
How can you recognize efficient cooling? In this lecture, Joris expounds on a heat sink for an IGBT, an electronic component. He highlights 3 features of Diabatix’s heat sink designs which result in high performance cooling.
To design and create heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) components with higher performance, analyzing them for aerodynamic and pressure-flow characteristics is critical. Most types of ventilation systems need to be designed to have maximum airflow through them while reducing the pressure losses across the unit.
The rotating machinery industry has widely adopted digital prototyping to explore a larger design space than is otherwise possible. But for too long, companies have been restricted in deriving the maximum benefits from digital prototyping due to the limitations of desktop-based legacy software, and Hazleton was no exception.

Accurate fluid flow modeling of nuclear reactor rod bundles is essential and extremely challenging with exacting standards for the mesh to deal with the geometric complexity and near-wall physics.
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) can be used to influence decisions early in the design process. In order to assess the state-of-the-art of CFD and its predictive capability for medical devices, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) developed two benchmark models for validation.
CFD simulates the flow of liquids and gases by performing millions of numerical calculations. CFD analysis is typically carried out earlier in the design process even before the first prototype is made. With high-speed supercomputers, better designs can be achieved quicker, faster, and cheaper. Multiphysics is advanced CFD involving multiple physics coupled to mimic the real behavior as accurately as possible.
