[2] Department of Chemistry, PLASMANT Research Group, University of Antwerp, Belgium
[3] Department of Physics, EMAT Research Group, University of Antwerp, Belgium

Silver and gold nanoparticles are widely used in the field of surface enhanced raman spectroscopy (SERS) because of the unique plasmonic properties. Plasmons or surface plasmon resonance result from the wavelength dependent dielectric properties of noble metals like Ag, Au, Pt etc., ... Read More

Validation of COMSOL Multiphysics® for Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) Flows in Fusion Applications

Y. Yan [1], S. Smolentsev [1], M. Abdou [1]
[1] Fusion Science and Technology Center, University of California, Los Angeles, CA, USA

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 ... Read More

Simulation of a Microwave Applicator for the Treatment of Petroleum Emulsions

A. V. Vazquez [1, 2], P. M. G. Vite [3],
[1] Universidad Politécnica de Altamira, Altamira, Tamaulipas, México
[2] Universidad Tecnológica de Altamira, Altamira, Tamaulipas, México
[3] TEC/NM, Instituto Tecnológico de Ciudad Madero, Ciudad Madero, Tamaulipas, México

In Mexico there is a decline in the production of oil deposits due to the lack of effective treatment of oil emulsions, which generate a problem in the reinjection of emulsified water, transport of oil with high water content and corrosion in the oil refineries. Through the simulation ... Read More

Frequency and Electrode Separation Recommendations for EDA Measurements

S. Sridhar [1], T. J. Akl [1],
[1] Analog Devices Inc., Wilmington, MA, USA

Electrodermal Activity (EDA) is a measure of changes in the conductivity of the skin. It has have been found to be indicative of the individual’s autonomic nervous activity which is correlated to their stress and emotional state. These conductivity changes are tracked by injecting a ... Read More

Numerical Modeling of Nanopipettes for Electrophysiology and Imaging

J. Rabinowitz [1],
[1] Columbia University, New York, NY, USA

Nanoscale pipettes allow for exciting extensions of traditional current- and voltage-clamping electrophysiology experiments. However, bulk electrodynamic properties begin to break down at nanoscale openings, introducing unusual effects that must be understood in order to properly ... Read More
