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

In this study, a computational model is developed and solved using COMSOL Multiphysics software to estimate the lesion size during saline-infused RFA. Transport of saline is set up by modifying the Poisson equation and the convection-diffusion equation [3] under the Mathematics module. ... En savoir plus

The use of microwaves for heating purposes of dielectric materials is encountered in many industrial applications (food processing, chemistry, material engineering and medical applications). In most of these thermal applications, the prediction of the temperature evolution within the ... En savoir plus

COMSOL Multiphysics was used to simulate the heat flux from battery cells via conjugate heat transfer physics which consist of laminar flow and heat transfer in solids and fluids. Laminar flow function was used to simulate natural convection of air within the sealed enclosure. Heat ... En savoir plus

Radio Frequency MEMS devices have emerged to overcome the problem of high losses associated with semiconductors at high frequencies. A tunable MEMS capacitor is a micrometre-scale electronic device whose capacitance is controlled through different actuation mechanisms which govern the ... En savoir plus

The design of ESS-Bilbao RFQ (RadioFrequency Quadrupole) linear accelerator cavity using COMSOL Multiphysics is presented. The work includes geometry definition, electrostatics, electromagnetic and thermomechanical coupled simulations. The main part of the work corresponds to the ... En savoir plus

Drying of porous materials is characterized by the invasion of a gaseous phase replacing the evaporating liquid phase. Vacuum drying is an advanced method applied to oakwood to diminish discoloration, so understand its physics is a very important task. In this work, a two-scale model is ... En savoir plus

Zinc Oxide (ZnO) was chosen as the piezoelectric material. A multi – d31 mode cantilever design was used, with varying dimensions of cantilever, to form an array. The individual cantilevers can be either connected in series or in parallel to achieve different output characteristics. ... En savoir plus

To prevent further complications in diabetes, proper management of blood glucose levels is essential. By using ultrasonic transceivers (both transmit and receive) the glucose level of human blood can be determined. By using this ultrasonic technique miniaturized sensors for non-invasive ...
