The ever-growing complexity of samples which need to be processed in e.g., environmental and biomedical/biochemical research, demand higher efficiencies of analytical techniques. Liquid chromatography (LC), mass spectrometry, among others, are analytical techniques that revolutionized ... En savoir plus

Functionally graded materials (FGM) are those that contain chemical, phase or structural gradients. Whilst the design of functionally graded structures is well researched in areas such as shape optimisation and topology optimization, their manufacture is still in development. One ...

Partial differential equations on unknown domains is a mathematical problem that arises in many applications. Several examples can be easily found in the dynamics of free surfaces in fluid dynamics or in fluid-structure interactions. In many situations, large deformations are encountered ... En savoir plus

In this research, we performed multiple COMSOL Multiphysics® simulations. We analyzed the dispersion curves of waves in a LAMB wave pressure sensor; simulated a thin metal film in a microbolometer and observed the resulting stress; investigated the thermal behavior of an acoustic wave ...

The present study manifests the several ground breaking flow phenomena arising out of hydrodynamic interactions between two microorganisms swimming inside a microchannel with close proximity. The results theorized in the present investigation scrutinizes the varying behavior of the ... En savoir plus

Our goal is to reproduce the key features of carangiform swimming by running 2D simulations which fully exploit the Fluid-Structure Interaction interface of COMSOL Multiphysics software. Fish swimming is an important area of research, with relevant developments on biomechanics, robotics ... En savoir plus

Condenser microphones will have an electrical output for any displacement of the membrane relative to the back plate, which is usually bound to the microphone housing. For the typical use case, a pressure input will create a pressure difference across the membrane, which causes a ... En savoir plus

The high flow rate within the HFIR cooling water flow channel causes the fuel plates to deflect which in turn, changes the coolant flow characteristics. This nonlinear feedback loop between the coolant and the fuel plate is the focus of the present simulation of the fluid-solid ... En savoir plus

Large centrifugal compressors, which are commonly applied in the oil and gas and in the process industry, may fail due to vibrations of the impeller. These vibrations are induced by pressure pulsations in a compressor stage. These vibrations can be especially strong in so-called dense ... En savoir plus

Microbubble oscillations in the presence of ultrasound wave inside blood vessel have been widely studied for therapeutic applications like drug and gene delivery[1], blood-brain barrier opening[2], and lysis of blood clot[3] and cell membrane[4]. An oscillating bubble exerts stresses on ... En savoir plus
