Organogenesis is a tightly regulated process that has been studied experimentally for decades. We are developing mechanistic models for the morphogenesis of limbs, lungs, and kidneys with a view to integrate available knowledge and to better understand the underlying regulatory logic. ...

Introduction The COMSOL Multiphysics® software and its CFD Module have a physics interface for solving Laminar Two-Phase Flow problems using the Level Set method (1). This paper discusses how the tool may be used with more than two phases when the flow is laminar. It then introduces a ... En savoir plus

Energy piles, i.e. heat exchangers located within the foundation piles of buildings, are used for heating of cooling purposes. Although the absolute values of deformations and temperature gradients are low or moderate, the entire setting can be influenced by thermo-hydro-mechanical ... En savoir plus

Vacuum window is required in the millimeter wave transmission line in ITER*. It is to be designed to minimize the microwave reflection while keeping a robust and safe approach to meet the requirements. We have studied transmission characteristics of various dielectric materials over D ... En savoir plus

The fixed beds have the advantage of large heat transfer area, for they are used in some designs of innovative nuclear reactors as the reactor FBNR. Inside of study of fixed beds is important to define the following parameters: flow minimum and velocity profile of cooling fluid, ... En savoir plus

The objective of this study is to acquire a full characterization of a hyper-elastic material. The process is realized by performing a Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA) with a viscoelastic material, which is extended by image processing algorithms in order to measure the changing ...

The paper presents the three dimensional (3D) Finite Element Method (FEM) COMSOL Multiphysics® model of a Three Phase Permanent Magnetic Excited Transverse Flux Machine (TFM). The model is fully parameterized and able to sweep over all parameters during design optimization process. The ... En savoir plus

Magnetic separation of magnetic liquid phases/particles from non-magnetic liquid phases/particles are needed for applications such as cleaning up oil spills by separating oil and water liquid phases or separating magnetic materials from non-magnetic materials in biomedical and ... En savoir plus

This work is concerned with systems possessing cyclic symmetries. In particular, we concentrate on the case in which the medium possesses infinite order cyclic symmetry, while the constitutive relations have cyclic symmetry of a lower order. We investigate the interactions between modes ... En savoir plus

The preferred acoustic response of recording studios, auditoriums and conference halls is to have an even energy response over the entire room and throughout full audio spectrum. This can be accomplished by using acoustic panels with complex surface structures that scatter acoustic waves ... En savoir plus
