Klein tunneling is one of the most striking consequences of Dirac equation. Despite experimental investigations of the phenomenon in analog systems in the transport or quasi-bound state scenario, a direct observation of quantized Klein tunneling is still lacking. Now this is achieved in ... En savoir plus

The high-temperature superconducting magnet (HTS) is one of the core technologies of a superconducting maglev. The effects of multiphysics fields including electromagnetic, mechanical, and thermal should be taken into consideration in design. Traditional design methods rely on the ... En savoir plus

We used COMSOL Multiphysics® software to calculate the mode distribution by numerically solving the wave equation in the fiber. We consider the transmission from the fiber 1 to the fiber 2. In the first case, the transmission was calculated as function of the wavelength of the propagated ... En savoir plus

In this study, COMSOL Multiphysics® software was applied to the investigation of the electromagnetic behavior of an optical crystal submitted to the magnetic field generated by electric current in a near positioned metallic conductor. Moreover, the influence of a ferromagnetic apparatus ... En savoir plus

Localized convection heat and mass transfer can be intensified and optimized by providing exposure to electromagnetic energy. Conjugate heat and mass transfer are configured by solving the momentum, heat and mass transfer simultaneously in both solid (substrate, comprising of a two-phase ... En savoir plus

Electromagnetic actuators are representing one important component of ABB's medium voltage reclosers [1, 2]. Their performance is strongly influenced by the considered material properties as well as by the electronic control units that will power the actuator. Depending on the studied ... En savoir plus

Introduction Computer simulations are widely used for the interpretation and inversion of electromagnetic measurements in well logging. Until recently, simulated logs have been computed with approximate 1D or 2D models. By using the COMSOL® RF Module installed on a cluster, we show that ... En savoir plus

Uterine contractions during pregnancy are currently poorly understood – experts disagree on the mechanisms by which contractions propagate through the organ and the structural layout of the uterine muscle fibers. We have developed a multi-scale model of the uterus, at the cellular, ... En savoir plus

The integrity and safety of reinforced concrete structures are of paramount importance in civil engineering. Detection of flaws in prestressed tendons, especially those buried at critical depths greater than 20 cm, presents a significant challenge. Magnetic flux leakage (MFL) is a non ... En savoir plus

Eddy current thermography (ECT) is a non-destructive contact-free method of defect detection in a conductive material combining the electromagnetic induction of eddy currents and thermal imaging. This technique uses an excitation system consisting of an inductor with coil(s) carrying ... En savoir plus
