Fused Deposition Modeling is a widely used AM process which is affordable with a free control ... En savoir plus

Development of a 10 kW Microwave Applicator for Thermal Cracking of Lignite Briquettes

B. Lepers [1], G. Link [1], J. Jelonnek [1]
[1] Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Institute for Pulsed Power and Microwave Technology, Karlsruhe, Germany

Introduction: The use of microwave energy for thermal cracking (from thermal stress and water pore pressure) of lignite-coal briquettes increases the lignite friability [1] and is beneficial for later chemical treatment inside a gasifier (for methanol production for example). An ... En savoir plus

Describing and predicting the extent of the physicochemical processes as well as geometrical deformation taking place during food transformation is of major importance to control food functional properties. Unfortunately, only a few food-matrix models consider deformation particularly ... En savoir plus

Evaluating Thermo-Mechanical Stress Due to Surface Grinding on a Sensor Integrated Workpiece

M. Sarma [1], M. Reimers, G. Dumstorff [1], W. Lang [1]
[1] Institute for Microsensors, -Actuators and –Systems (IMSAS), University of Bremen, Dept. 1: Physics / Electrical Engineering, Germany

Sensor integration in a workpiece can be used to characterize manufacturing processes but due to integration, a foreign element is added to the material which can alter its material properties [1]. This can lead to a high order of measurement uncertainty. Additionally, the extent of ... En savoir plus

Simulation of the Response of Heterogeneous Solid Under Impulsive Loads

G. Leonardi [1], M. Buonsanti [1], F. Ceravolo [1], F. Scopelliti [1],
[1] University of Reggio Calabria, Italy

This paper study the mechanical response of a granular solid subject to an impulse force. The proposed model simulate the behavior of an airport pavement structure. The analysis is performed on a representative volume element (RVE) under thermo-mechanical actions, as those produced by ... En savoir plus

Energy efficiency and harvest, speed and performance, flexibility and portability are key elements for innovation in the current consumer electronics markets. Thermoelectric Generators can convert energy from heat gradients into electricity. Every source of heat from an electronics ... En savoir plus

Structural and Environmental Design of a Rainscreen System Using COMSOL Multiphysics

C. Guido Galante [1], M. Donà [2],
[1] Newtecnic Ltd, London, England, UK
[2] University of Cambridge, UK

The subject of the study is a bespoke rainscreen system designed for the Grand Theatre of Rabat, Morocco (Figure 1). The project presents a complex façade geometry and consists of a 1800-seat theater, an open-air amphitheater with a capacity of 7000 people, a rehearsal space and a ... En savoir plus

Analysis of Static Stress in a Bicycle Chain Plate

[1] Augsburg University of Applied Sciences, Augsburg, Germany
[2] Comsol Multiphysics GmbH, Göttingen, Germany
[3] Heilbronn University, Kuenzelsau, Germany

Using the Solid Mechanics interface, a model is set up to investigate the impact of static stress on a bicycle chain for different geometries related to three chain generations. A contact model is used to induce the stress. Plastic deformation is taken into account. Based on the ... En savoir plus

Creep Deformation Behavior of Heating Filaments in High Temperature Applications

B. Valentini [1],
[1] Plansee SE, Reutte, Austria

Resistive heating filaments used in high temperature applications at 2000°C and above are often made of refractory metals. The lifetime of such filaments is mainly limited by creep deformations which can in the worst case lead to a short circuit between filaments and other furnace ... En savoir plus

New Thermo-Mechanical Fluid Flow Modeling of Multiscale Deformations in the Levant Basin

M. Belferman [1], R. Katsman [1], A. Agnon [2], Z. Ben-Avraham [1],
[1] The Dr. Moses Strauss Department of Marine Geosciences, Leon H.Charney School of marine sciences. Haifa University, Mt. Carmel, Haifa, Israel
[2] Institute of Earth Sciences, The Hebrew University, Jerusalem, Israel

The Levant has been repeatedly devastated by numerous earthquakes since prehistorical times. In order to understand the role of the dynamics of the water bodies in triggering the deformations in the Levant basin, a new theoretical thermo-mechanical model is constructed and extended by ...
