Veryst is proud to have supported 3D BioLabs LLC with a study described in its recent publication titled “Rodent Model for Orthotopic Implantation of Engineered Liver Devices.” The publication presents a novel surgical technique to provide blood supply to implanted cellularized devices that augment or replace liver tissue function.
Dr. Jorgen Bergstrom was co-author (in collaboration with Maureen Dreher and Srinidhi Nagaraja of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration) of two presentations given at the 10th World Biomaterials Congress,
MEMS expert Allyson Hartzell was at the 14th Annual MEMS Technology Symposium presented by MEPTEC (the Microelectronics Packaging & Test Engineering Council).
MEMS expert Allyson Hartzell gave a webinar titled “Intro to MEMS Reliability – How to Fix Problems Before They Happen.” The webinar covered common failure mechanisms in MEMS and examples of design and process fixes.
Dr. Nagi Elabbasi is now a Principal Engineer at Veryst! Dr. Elabbasi's primary area of expertise is modeling and simulation of nonlinear and multiphysics systems. He works with clients in the biomedical, consumer products, power and energy, automotive, and aerospace industries to resolve product design and performance issues.
Allyson Hartzell, co-author of the essential book “MEMS Reliability,” discussed some key MEMS issues in a recent interview with Tim Rodgers of Accendo Reliability.
The makers of ADINA software have announced that “in response to customers’ requirements,” ADINA supports the Bergstrom-Boyce and Three-Network viscoelastic material models, saying, “These sophisticated material models allow users to capture complex viscoelastic behaviors of polymeric components.”
Allyson Hartzell has just published a practical guide to “Avoid these common MEMS failure mechanisms” in an article on the EDN Network’s website. The article provides specific and concrete advice for identifying and avoiding failure mechanisms, as well as helpful tips for system developers.
Dr. Alireza Kermani used CFD software to prepare an evaluation of ventilation system design in hospital patient rooms. The study was presented at COMSOL Conference 2015 Boston and was later the subject of a COMSOL blog.
Dr. Sean Teller has joined Veryst Engineering, bringing extensive experience in the mechanical behavior of materials at low and high strain rates, including viscoelasticity, viscoplasticity, nonlinear materials, and fracture mechanics.
