Corona discharge is used in several applications such as surface treatment of polymers, photocopying or dust removal in air conditioning. Streamer formation is undesirable for most of these applications. Therefore, several studies have been dedicated to investigate the formation and ... En savoir plus

The evaluation of defect size and nature are two most controversial topics in ultrasonic flaw detection. The operation consists of an application of ultrasonic waves to pipes in order to detect metal loss and other defects in the pipe wall due to corrosion and other degradation ... En savoir plus

The focus of this paper is to study the effect on resonance frequency and power enhancement techniques[1] of piezoelectric MEMS and modeling, design, and optimization of a piezoelectric generator based on a two-layer bending element(Figure 1) using COMSOL Multiphysics. An analytical ... En savoir plus

Cantilever beam-type transducers have been in great demand and explored widely in the recent years, typically in thin film form because of their sensor and actuator applications. The piezoelectric cantilever is the most preferred structure employed in technological applications. ... En savoir plus

In this conference we have brought together a community that is scientifically diverse in an event that allows for inspiring contacts about the use of COMSOL Multiphysics. It is an event to connect with the Spanish and Portuguese COMSOL Multiphysics users and participate in training ... En savoir plus

The objective of the work is to propose a reliability enhancement model for antigen detection system (ADS) using bio MEMS based cantilever array sensors using heterogeneous modular redundancy technique. The reliability of the ADS is expressed in terms of the constituent sub systems which ... 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

Introduction: Vibration energy harvester can convert mechanical vibration energy into electrical energy and store it in battery for later use. It can create clean renewable energy from vibration movements such as walking, jumping, running, etc. This can convert energy previously wasted ... En savoir plus

MEMS is the leading technology which combines both electronic and mechanical devices on a single microchip. Tracing the position of the object is an important problem in engineering. This can be addressed by Gyroscopes. These sensors are used to find orientation and angular velocity. ... En savoir plus

This paper projects a novel 3D capacitive accelerometer design to identify a severe accident and initiate airbag deployment systems. It will detect the rapid negative acceleration of the vehicle to avoid the severity of the collision. Such a device demands excellent performance in terms ... En savoir plus
