A benchmark study was carried out by the Swiss Nuclear Safety Inspectorate (ENSI) in collaboration with the Laboratory for Waste Management (LES) of the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) in order to evaluate the capabilities of the program COMSOL for the calculation of the transport of ...

Advances in visualization and discretization of pore structures by means of Computed Tomography, and rapidly increasing computational capabilities, allow numerical modeling of pore-scale fluid flow based on the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations rather than using a macroscopic ...

Dielectrophoresis (DEP) is a method for cell manipulation without physical contact in lab-on-chip devices, since it exploits the dielectric properties of cells suspended in a microfluidic sample, under the action of locally generated high-gradient electric fields. The DEP platform that ... En savoir plus
For low-field NMR (Nuclear magnetic resonance), NdFeB permanent magnet arrangements are proposed to provide the static polarizing magnetic field. Especially a parallel and a circular arrangement of the permanent magnets, iron yokes and small shim magnets were tested and improved by ... En savoir plus
Manual manufacturing of inlay fixed partial denture frameworks by metal casting can take hours of dental practitioners work time. This paper introduces 3-D simulations of premanufactured inlay fixed partial denture framework assembled from laser cut sheet metal parts. The study gives a ... En savoir plus
Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) represents a valid alternative for treating liver metastases in medically complicated patients. Conventional devices currently operate at 500 kHz, due to good conducting properties of tissues. However, the use of lower frequencies (i.e. 20 kHz) has been ... En savoir plus
The present study investigates simulation model and droplet ejection performance of a thermal-bubble microejector. This model simulates the bubble nucleation and the bubble growth, to predict the droplet ejection process. Specificity, it is achieved by coupling an electric-thermal model ... En savoir plus
The mathematical modeling of the diffusion and reaction of toxic compounds in mammalian cells is tough task due to their very complex geometry. The heterogeneity of the cell, particularly the cytoplasm, and the variation of the cellular architecture, greatly affects the behavior of these ... En savoir plus
In this paper we present results of the mathematical modeling of AC electroosmotic micropumps. Unlike others we use the full dynamic description, instead of the linearized model. Skewed hybrid discretization meshes are employed in order to accurately capture the main features of the ... En savoir plus
This paper proposes a FEM model for a segment of a nervous cell axon, which takes into account, through the so called Hodgkin-Huxley equations, the non linear and time varying dynamics of the membrane surrounding it. A combination with Maxwell equations is performed in a numerical ... En savoir plus
