Decreasing the Effective Thermal Conductivity in Glass Supported Thermoelectric Layers by Kevin Bethke (3178869)

“…<div><p>As thermoelectric devices begin to make their way into commercial applications, the emphasis is put on decreasing the thermal conductivity. In this purely theoretical study, finite element analysis is used to determine the effect of a supporting material on the thermal conductivity of a thermoelectric module. …”

<i>K</i>‑Index: A Descriptor, Predictor, and Correlator of Complex Nanomorphology to Other Material Properties by Tahereh Taghvaee (3906586)

“…Herewith, the θ-to-Π ratio is referred to as the <i>K</i>-index, and it was noticed that all polyurea samples of this study could be put in eight <i>K</i>-index groups with separate nanomorphologies ranging from caterpillar-like assemblies of nanoparticles, to thin nanofibers, to cocoon-like structures, to large bald microspheres. A first validation of the <i>K</i>-index as a morphology descriptor was based on compressing samples to different strains: it was observed that as the porosity decreases, the water-contact angle decreases proportionally, and thereby the <i>K</i>-index remains constant. …”
