The acoustic scattering through a circular orifice plate in a duct with low Mach number flow (M=0.1) is computed using the Linearized Navier-Stokes physics interface of COMSOL Multiphysics®. The work by Kierkegaard et al. is extended to account for higher order acoustic modes, i.e., ... En savoir plus
The thermocapillary effect is widely used in microfluidic applications for sensing and actuation and can also be used to generate rigid-body motion. Furthermore, it is possible to cast Marangoni flows to achieve controllable rigid-body motion in 3D space. To this effect, here we present ... En savoir plus
Plasma torches are used in processing of materials as well as in the energy industry for producing plasma. In a non-transferred arc plasma torch, an electric arc can be initiated by applying a direct current (DC) between the cathode and anode, both placed inside the torch. Then, the ... En savoir plus
Solar thermal energy, compared to fossil fuels, is an environmentally friendly alternative for heating and hot water production. Recent research suggests that polymeric materials can be a cost-saving and environmentally friendly alternative to the common metals used in solar thermal ... En savoir plus
This work shows the finite element implementation of a constitutive model which can represent the chemo-thermomechanical aging of rubber. This approach considers the nonlinear thermo-viscoelastic behavior of rubber, is formulated for finite deformations in the continuum mechanical ... En savoir plus
Based on COMSOL Multiphysics® software, an analysis of an innovative thermal actuation system capable of overtaking the traditional electrostatic comb drive, nowadays used for actuating the shutter array of variable emittance radiators, has been conducted as to validate this technology ...

Microalgae can be directly used in health food or as biofilters for waste water treatment. They also have numerous commercial applications in cosmetics, aquaculture and chemical industry as a source of highly valuable molecules, e.g., polyunsaturated fatty acids, and they are ... En savoir plus
Standard measuring techniques for thermal conductivity cannot be readily applied to determine the load-dependent thermal conductivity of porous adsorbents, because the local ad- and desorption inside the specimen and the thickness of the specimen are not considered. Hence, in this work a ... En savoir plus
The numerical results of the unconfined compression test on a sample of Articular Cartilage (AC) are discussed. AC is modelled as a load-bearing, deformable, fiber-reinforced material filled with an interstitial fluid and comprising statistically oriented collagen fibers, chondrocytes, ... En savoir plus
Introduction In order to understand the detection mechanism of the PZT based nondestructive testing (NDT) technology for interface debonding of CFSTs, numerical simulation on a multi-physical model composed of surface-mounted PZT patches and CFST structural member is established in ...
