This paper reports the structural solid mechanic simulation of a MEMS out-of-plane platform that provides thermal and electrical isolation for a device built on it. When assemble, the platform lifted for approximately 400 μm above the substrate level. A mechanical stress analysis is then ... Read More
Machines with rotating components are prone to vibrations because an imbalance of the rotor would always act as a harmonic excitation force to the machine. Thus oscillations close to the natural frequencies are tried to pass through fast in the run-up and cast-down or even completely ... Read More
The use of ventilated facades may reduce the cooling and heating energy demands of the building. Double-skin facades (DSFs) belong to the wider group of ventilated facades and currently represent one of the most interesting and studied facade systems. The purpose of this study is to ... Read More
The void shape evolution of silicon is a process driven mainly by surface diffusion which leads to a geometrical transformation of trenches etched in silicon wafers due to surface energy minimization. The temperature, the ambient gas and the annealing time affect the velocity of the ... Read More
The location and nature of the moisture leakages are sometimes difficult to detect. Moreover, the relation between observed inside surface moisture patterns and where the moisture enters the construction is often not clear. The objective of this paper is to investigate inverse modeling ... Read More
Fiber-reinforced composite materials are widely used for building lightweight parts in several application fields like aviation or naval industry. Here the longitudinal fibers, which take the main mechanical loads of the component, are embedded in a shape giving resinous matrix. The ... Read More
A requirement of the building envelope is to act as environmental separator. Energy is one component that we sometimes wish to control. How can this yield passive benefits such as solar heating? This research focuses on control of thermal radiation energy, and the role windows play ... Read More
Graphene, a single layer of carbon atoms, has demonstrated extremely high electric and thermal conductivities, tensile strength, and is therefore an exciting novel building block in the world of 2D flexible electronics. We propose the integration of graphene with MEMS devices to ... Read More
Geothermal heat pump technology is actually one of the most interesting processes to provide heat and cold to a building. In this study, a model of the ground exchanger of a direct expansion geothermal heat pump (DX) is going to be presented in 1 dimension. The model represents the phase ... Read More
Among the new features introduced by the latest versions of COMSOL Multiphysics® software, the opportunity of building up customized model interfaces by exploiting the Application Builder is for sure one of the most promising. Arising from this concept, the Certified Consultant BE CAE ... Read More
