This paper concentrates on developing a self-contained cochlea whose performance is at par with natural hearing. The Artificial Basilar Membrane (ABM) design is done in such a manner so as to get a performance similar to the natural hearing. Finite element analysis was done with the help ... Read More
Perforated pipes are extensively used to control exhaust noise in automobiles [1-4]. The energy loss associated with the perforations leads to back pressure which needs to be quantified and minimized [5]. An objective approach presented in [6] is the introduction of friction factor for ... Read More
This study aims to develop and validate a finite element numerical model to represent the Insertion Loss (IL) promoted by the enclosure of a sound source. For the validation, a enclosure prototype was built in wood and the IL was measured in laboratory. The idea is to develop an ... Read More
In this contribution, we simulate the optical response of piezoelectric planar optical microcavities (POMCs) under the modulation introduced by a propagating surface acoustic wave (SAW). The physical picture of the model is shown in Figure 1. A metallic interdigital transducer (IDT) is ... Read More
Este trabalho apresenta a simulação numérica de um sistema de levitação acústica para manipulação de partículas em ar. O sistema de levitação consiste de dois transdutores de ultrassom e um refletor de face plana. Através da simulação é calculado o potencial da força de radiação acústica ... Read More
Loudspeaker drivers are energy transducers: their main goal is to efficiently convert electrical energy to acoustic energy (sound), through the movement of mechanical parts. As such, they are prime candidates for the application of multiphysics methods and tools. The talk will outline ... Read More
Magneto-Hydrodynamic (MHD) power generation systems were originally investigated starting from the fact that the interaction of a plasma with a magnetic field must take place at much higher temperatures than could be observed in a mechanical turbine. The main problems of traditional MHD ... Read More
The ear doesn’t solely listen but it also speaks. Sounds formed in the inner ear which are measurable in the outer ear are called Otoacoustic emissions (OAEs). Some claim these are produced by the outer hair cells (OHCs), the amplifiers in the inner ear. Our hypothesis is that the OHCs ... Read More
In this work, we seek to simulate SAWs for a better understanding and to benchmark the currently available cloud computing possibilities of COMSOL Multiphysics® software. By using the MEMS module we demonstrate 3D models with reduced geometry to achieve principle information about the ... Read More
The knowledge of the acoustical transfer paths in active noise control systems is very important for the performance of the system. Unfortunately, simulation is challenging since even simple configurations require comprehensive experience in physics and modeling. Two test setups were ... Read More
