There has been a growing interest in optical parametric amplifiers (OPA) for light generation and amplification in because of the possibility for arbitrary operation wavelength and wideband tenability [1]. PCFs are of particular interest in such nonlinear optics applications because of ... En savoir plus

Electric field distributions along a polymeric insulator under wet and contaminated conditions were studied in this paper. To study the effect of pollution layer conductivity and thickness on the electric field distribution along a standard polymeric insulator, simulations were carried ... En savoir plus

Electric field distribution along an insulator surface is of prime importance for the long term performance of insulators. In this paper electric field and potential distribution along a standard 33 kV polymeric insulator were investigated under different pollution conditions. Effect of ... En savoir plus

For our simulation we used the Piezoelectric Devices interface. The structure was set with (clamped) fix constraint boundaries to both ends. The bottom electrode was set to be the ground for the electrostatic physics and the top electrode was set to be a Terminal with potential of 10V. A ... En savoir plus

The reduction of energy consumption in the building sector (nearly 40% of the energy consumption in Europe) is a real challenge to achieve the objective of the “2020 European climate and energy package”. In recent years, great interest is observed for the Stirling thermoacoustic ... En savoir plus

Adaptive Optics is common sense, since many people use digital cameras with electromechanical iris actors on elastic autofocus lenses. This project tries to create a COMSOL Multiphysics based mathematical model of adaptive optics with electrostatically induced deformation of dielectric ... En savoir plus

Electromigration induced failure is one of the main reliability issues for the microelectronics industry. The continuous scaling of the interconnect dimensions leads to higher operating current densities and temperatures, which accentuates the electromigration failure. As a consequence, ...

The formation of space charge clouds is a well known problem that affects thermionic emitters in regimes of high current emission. Although some analytical models have been presented, suitable for 1D geometries, the modeling of the problem in complex 3D structures remains a challenge due ... En savoir plus

In this presentation it is shown how an axially symmetric coil can be simulated in a non-symmetric environment. A rotationally symmetric coil can be simulated by using a 2D model. Doing so the serial equivalent resistance of the coil is obtained among other results. The influence of the ... En savoir plus

We present studies of the electric field configuration that guides the electrons to the strips through the mesh and its importance to the detector’s optimal operation. Furthermore, analysis of the gas propagation inside the chamber for different gas distribution schemes is discussed. All ... En savoir plus
