Microfluidics and Biosensors are two principal fields that paved the way for the inception of Lab-on-a-chip (LOC) which provides early and cost-effective disease detection, from monitoring to treatment. LOC is a device that uses very small amounts of fluid on a microchip to do certain ... Read More
Neste trabalho utilizamos o software COMSOL Multiphysics® para resolver a equação de difusão de calor induzida por laser. Está equação é a base de técnicas fototérmicas em especial a técnica de Lente Térmica. Além de resolver a equação de difusão sem o uso das aproximações de amostra ... Read More
This study investigates the shock boundary layer interaction occurring at the base of a double sharp fin. The base geometry is of particular interest, with comparisons made between flat and semi-cylindrical bases. The flow field is characterized via numerical simulations and ... Read More
This paper presents a 3D numerical model to predict the whole process of coaxial powder flow, including the particle stream flow in and below the nozzle and also the laser-particle interaction process. The Particle Tracing Module of COMSOL Multiphysics is used to solve the coupled ... Read More
Multilayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) are an emerging class of dielectric materials with promising applications in modern nanophotonics. They exhibit a much higher refractive index (~ 4 - 4.5) than traditional semiconducting materials like Silicon (~ 3.5) in the near ... Read More
Electroactive actuators are widely used in precision optical systems to control the position and shape of optical elements, such as telescope mirrors. However, the optimal position of the electroactive actuator for a given optical mirror design is not obvious, and numerical optimization ... Read More
Macroscopic modeling of fluid flow and thermal diffusion, in a porous medium, requires the description of equivalent properties (permeability, conductivity and diffusivity). However, depending on the microstructure topology of the porous medium and the fluid flow regime at the ... Read More
To achieve the goals of the Paris Agreement and limit global warming below 2 K compared to pre-industrial level, significant energy savings in all fields of industries will be required. One example of energy intensive processes in industrial fabrication is heat treatment. The applied ... Read More
As additive manufacturing for metallic material is more and more used in industry, researchers try to overcome the limits of the process. To improve this industrial process, in terms of applications and understanding, the numerical simulation is today a very strong tool. Nevertheless, ... Read More
A numerical analysis on transient three-dimensional temperature distribution in a semi-infinite solid, irradiated by a moving Gaussian laser beam, is carried out numerically by means of the code COMSOL Multiphysics. The investigated workpiece is simply a solid. A laser source is ... Read More
