Thermal ablation is a treatment option in oncology that can be used to target primary and metastatic cancers. In this approach, high temperature heating is administered at the target tumor site to induce coagulative necrosis of malignant cells. One minimally invasive method for ... En savoir plus
Ultrasonic flow-cell reactors are used for many industrial applications, where fluid substrate is sonicated in a small region, where very high ultrasonic acoustic power is present. The electromechanical transducer (converter) that drive the sonotrode inside the flow-cell is designed in ... En savoir plus
Bolometer is a thermal infrared sensor used for measuring the intensity of radiation via the heating of a material due to the radiations. A bolometer consists of an absorptive element, a thin layered material, connected to a thermal reservoir. The result is that any radiation received on ... En savoir plus
In this contribution we present a COMSOL Multiphysics® example of a disk piezoelectric ceramic transformer (D-PT) coupled with a bipolar NPN transistor to form an auto-oscillator. The comparison between the simulations and the measurements made on our prototype are found to be in good ... En savoir plus
Ultrasound imaging probes are widely used for several types of diagnosis applications. In the present work we focus our attention on a disk-type probe, which is widely used in CW and PW operating conditions. In particular we present a 2D-axial symmetry FEM for the probe, capable to ...

The fabrication of piezo aluminium composite modules for sensor and actor applications with mass production technologies is in the scope of the SFB/Transregio 39 PT-PIESA project funded by the (German Research Foundation). After forming of cavities with a width of 0.3 mm into aluminium ... En savoir plus
The technology involved in high performance ultrasound imaging probes needs a reliable model to help in new projects development and performance simulations. To achieve a useful model, it is necessary to use correct values for all material parameters involved in the electro-acoustical ... En savoir plus
A COMSOL Multiphysics® model was made to design a mechanical amplifier and radiation plate for the emission of high intensity 40.5 kHz ultrasound to air by means of a Langevin type transducer usually applied in cleaning baths for example. In this work, ultrasonic irradiation is aimed at ... En savoir plus
This paper describes the design of an ultrasonic transducer using different lead free piezo-electric materials and evaluates their performance with different glucose levels in the human blood. COMSOL Multiphysics 4.2a was used for the simulation study using 2D axis symmetric model of ... En savoir plus
Devices which scavenge energy from ambient mechanical sources such as human body movement and ocean waves are undergoing rapid research and development. Both triboelectric and piezoelectric effects have been employed in the design of such devices. In this work, we use the MEMS Module in ... En savoir plus
