Finite element modelling of electrical machines usually assumes uniform magnetic properties and loss behaviour throughout the steel laminations. It is well known that manufacturing processes, like the assembly of the machine, deteriorate the properties of the core material. Generally, ... En savoir plus

We present an optimization procedure to optimize the maximum coupling of free space optical wave to surface plasmon. Shape derivative from shape sensitivity analysis is calculated, and the corresponding partial derivatives of the objective functional with respect to finite number of ... En savoir plus

Plasma torches are used in processing of materials as well as in the energy industry for producing plasma. In a non-transferred arc plasma torch, an electric arc can be initiated by applying a direct current (DC) between the cathode and anode, both placed inside the torch. Then, the ... En savoir plus

Several commercial CFD companies have recently extended their codes to magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flows. However, there are many computational challenges associated with MHD flows under the harsh fusion environmental conditions that require such codes to be carefully examined in a special ...

Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a minimally invasive procedure that can be used to treat chronic pain. Radiofrequency (RF) energy is emitted through a probe that is placed near a sensory nerve in the region of pain. The RF energy excites the nearby ions in the tissue causing them to ...

Optical cloaking was considered as fictional. Recent developments shows that macro scale optical cloaking is practical and functional. Brief review of ray optics based macro optical cloaking concepts are given. COMSOL Multiphysics® software simulations of cloaking devices are detailed. ... En savoir plus

This paper presents the design and analysis of a high power radial flux Brushless DC motor for electro-mechanical actuation system. The motor is used for driving an electro-mechanical actuator of 20 ton capacity. Surface mounted, radially magnetized permanent magnet design is mostly ... En savoir plus

通过COMSOL 内置的AC/DC模块可以模拟铁磁材料在磁场下的行为，如磁滞回线等。该方法通过求解麦克斯韦方程组来对材料的宏观磁性性质进行刻画。然而若要仿真磁性材料内微观或介观层面上磁矩的动力学行为，则需要使用到微磁学模型（micromagnetics），即求解Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert方程（LLG方程）。微磁学模型假设磁性材料的磁性由若干个模长守恒的等效磁矩构成，由于交换相互作用、磁偶极相互作用、磁晶各向异性等各种相互作用的存在，我们可以仿真磁性材料内的微观磁结构，如磁畴壁、磁涡旋以及具有拓扑性质的磁斯格明子等 ... En savoir plus

A new type of MRI compatible intracranial electrode based on Polymer Thick Film (PTF) is presented and studied using COMSOL Multiphysics. The geometry considered was a two-dimensional cross section cut of 5 mm thick electrodes with 5 cm leads on top of a 2×10 cm slab representing ... En savoir plus

The continuous and intensive use of squirrel-cage induction motors in the modern industry, has in some cases caused a serious deterioration of the electrical insulation in the windings of the machine, generating as a consequence internal short-circuit failures, the effects on the ... En savoir plus
