In this work, we present a methodology for the design and analysis of a double-sided linear induction motor for a scaled Hyperloop pod in COMSOL Multiphysics®. The key aspects are discussed as follows: Formulation of problem and simulation environment: The goal is to design a Double ... En savoir plus

For a specific project in downhole tools for oil and gas wells, we have to weld the tool before shipping and the tool must be programmed during installation on the rig location. For this reason we decided to use magnetic communication and power transmission as well. We have used COMSOL ... En savoir plus

INTRODUCTION: The Dirac equation is employed in particle physics and historically gave the first combined unification of quantum mechanics and relativity theory by introducing a four component wave function Ψn n=1…4. This wave function describes the behavior of fermion type particles (e ... En savoir plus

The effect of metallization thickness on planar transmission lines plays an essential role in microwave integrated circuits and thin film technology, especially in the propagation characterization and the electric field distribution in the structures. The objective of this paper is to ... En savoir plus

 Measuring soil moisture content plays an important role not only for sustaining dry farming but also for soil mapping. Our work includes developing a soil moisture sensor which is based on the principle of the Dual-Probe Heat-Pulse method to measure soil moisture content. To validate ... En savoir plus

3D-scanning of rooms and entire buildings is state of the art and commonly used to obtain and save the digital building structure. This information simplifies appropriate planning for modifications, to equip rooms, for interior design, etc. With a new approach of IR-heating and IR ... En savoir plus

For the complex 3D biocompatible metallic parts, with high level of customization, used in medical prosthesis and implants Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) and Selective Laser Melting (SLM) are the most common Additive Manufacturing technologies used nowadays. However, both ... En savoir plus

Power cables are of great importance in power transmission and distribution systems. Terminations and joints are the basic accessories of the power cables and they are required to make connections between cables or to an electrical apparatus. High voltage cables and cable accessories are ... En savoir plus

Hyperloop is a theoretical high-speed mass transportation system which aims to increase efficiency through the use of low-pressure tunnels and contactless propulsion. The University of Edinburgh’s Hyperloop Team (HYPED) has been selected to participate in the SpaceX Hyperloop Pod ... En savoir plus

A piezoelectric transformer allows purely mechanical transfer and scaling of electrical energy via simultaneous utilization of both the direct and converse piezoelectric effects. This mechanical energy transfer enables a wide range of functional differences from typical magnetic-based ... En savoir plus
