During my time as a micro fuel
cell engineer at
Neah Power Systems, Inc., I
learned something about gas generating heterogenic chemical reactions and
the transport of bubbly fluids in open and porous regions. Some of
this experience relates to individual "free roaming" bubbles, some to the passage of bubbles through tortuous
channels and some to the advection and convection of homogeneous bubbly fluids through
more or less open regions.
Additionally, being an electrical engineer (MSEE) with substantial
bench experience, I designed bubble detection systems and related
"bubble signal" processing algorithms. Because bubble formation and
transport is, at the core, a stochastic process, some of the useful signal
processing methodology I implemented was heavily statistical in nature.
