Autoliv Livbag is a company specialized in the development and manufacturing of gas generator for airbags based on pyrotechnic and compressed gas technologies. In this context, specifications of the product are very particular. Indeed, the gas generator needs to be airtight for several ... En savoir plus

A numerical model of laser welding process applied on highly optically reflective and thermally conductive materials such as copper has been developped. The latter considers multiphysical couplings of CFD, heat transfers and phase-field representation to account for topological ... En savoir plus

The high heat loads intrinsically associated with high-energy, high repetition rate laser systems require sophisticated thermal management analyses to minimise the impact of thermal effects on optical performance. Non-uniform heat deposition in optical elements can lead to the onset of ... En savoir plus

An auto-consistent multiphysical 3D model with strong coupling between Heat Transfer, Navier Stokes and ALE problems is proposed for the description of transient development of the keyhole and the melted zone in laser welding of metallic materials. It showed a satisfactory correspondence ... En savoir plus

Femtosecond laser are now a regular tool of the modern ophtalmic surgeon, for instance in cataract surgery by enabling precise cut of the cristalline lens tissue before removal. As femtosecond laser tissue interaction is highly dependant of the energy spatial density, a simplified model ... En savoir plus

Laser-Induced Forward Transfer (LIFT) is a direct-write technique for transferring small volumes (even picolitres) of material through laser irradiation. The characteristics of this material can be in a wide range of viscosities and can respond to different rheological behaviors, from ... En savoir plus

A quantification of spatial and temporal evolution of laser-induced plume would enhance the comprehension of high speed imaging results and allow optimizing the acquisition conditions for the emission spectroscopy. What temperature and concentrations of the evaporating species are ... En savoir plus

In this poster we present the results of the strategy for calibrating the COMSOL Multiphysics® model to simulate the laser bonding process (LADB) of Mems chips. A specific aspect of this work is to calibrate the COMSOL Multiphysics® heat model loss by measuring with a miniature ... En savoir plus

Laser Powered Homogenous Pyrolysis (LPHP), a non-isothermal wall-less plug flow reactor using cw-IR CO2 laser heating by fast vibrational–translational (V–T) energy transfer, is a common technique for high temperature pyrolysis in the gas phase with minimal catalytic effect of hot ...

The laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) process involves a highly localized laser heating, resulting in a large thermal gradient that induces residual thermal stress and deformation in the finished build. The excessive residual deformation in the direction normal to in the process plane could ... En savoir plus
