Combination of additive manufacturing (AM) and topological optimization with COMSOL Multiphysics® software offer new opportunities in mechanical design without limitation on structure geometry. Fused Deposition Modeling is a widely used AM process which is affordable with a free control ... En savoir plus
Introduction: The use of microwave energy for thermal cracking (from thermal stress and water pore pressure) of lignite-coal briquettes increases the lignite friability [1] and is beneficial for later chemical treatment inside a gasifier (for methanol production for example). An ... En savoir plus
Describing and predicting the extent of the physicochemical processes as well as geometrical deformation taking place during food transformation is of major importance to control food functional properties. Unfortunately, only a few food-matrix models consider deformation particularly ... En savoir plus
Sensor integration in a workpiece can be used to characterize manufacturing processes but due to integration, a foreign element is added to the material which can alter its material properties [1]. This can lead to a high order of measurement uncertainty. Additionally, the extent of ... En savoir plus
This paper study the mechanical response of a granular solid subject to an impulse force. The proposed model simulate the behavior of an airport pavement structure. The analysis is performed on a representative volume element (RVE) under thermo-mechanical actions, as those produced by ... En savoir plus
Energy efficiency and harvest, speed and performance, flexibility and portability are key elements for innovation in the current consumer electronics markets. Thermoelectric Generators can convert energy from heat gradients into electricity. Every source of heat from an electronics ... En savoir plus
The subject of the study is a bespoke rainscreen system designed for the Grand Theatre of Rabat, Morocco (Figure 1). The project presents a complex façade geometry and consists of a 1800-seat theater, an open-air amphitheater with a capacity of 7000 people, a rehearsal space and a ... En savoir plus
Using the Solid Mechanics interface, a model is set up to investigate the impact of static stress on a bicycle chain for different geometries related to three chain generations. A contact model is used to induce the stress. Plastic deformation is taken into account. Based on the ... En savoir plus
Resistive heating filaments used in high temperature applications at 2000°C and above are often made of refractory metals. The lifetime of such filaments is mainly limited by creep deformations which can in the worst case lead to a short circuit between filaments and other furnace ... En savoir plus
The Levant has been repeatedly devastated by numerous earthquakes since prehistorical times. In order to understand the role of the dynamics of the water bodies in triggering the deformations in the Levant basin, a new theoretical thermo-mechanical model is constructed and extended by ...
