Due to the rapid growth of the electromobility market much effort currently is being put into investigating electric vehicle batteries. Optimizing the microstructure of the cell components is playing an important role in extending range, enhancing fast charging capabilities and reducing ... Read More
Damage models can be used to simulate the quasi-brittle behaviour of cementitious materials, since they can represent cracking in a smeared-way under various loading conditions. COMSOL Multiphysics® developed a functionality to access external material models for structural mechanics in ... Read More
Dr. Bernardi is a Research Engineer with Ford Motor Company in Dearborn, MI. Her research focuses on the analysis and simulation of electrochemical energy-storage and conversion systems. In particular, Dr. Bernardi develops mathematical models that predict system behavior and identify ... Read More
A two-dimensional mathematical model for the absorption and desorption of H2 in LaNi4.8Al0.2 was developed and experimentally validated. The model is composed of an energy balance, a mass balance and a momentum balance. These differential equations are numerically solved by means of the ... Read More
Optimal storage of carbon dioxide (CO2) in aquifers requires dissolution in the aqueous phase. Transfer of CO2 from the gas phase to the aqueous phase or oil phase would be slow if it were only driven by diffusion. Dissolution of CO2 in brine (oil) forms a mixture that is denser than the ...

An alternative approach to integration of a local heat source with the digital microfluidic (DMF) platform by attaching inkjet-printed silver microheaters to the bottom plate was recently introduced (Sathyanarayanan et al., MNE 2017). This approach allows more degrees of freedom to the ... Read More
Wire Electric Discharge Machining (WEDM) is widely used technique for machining intricate geometries. It is a spark erosion, non contact machining process and this gives it an advantage in machining metals irrespective of their hardness [1]. Main process parameters of WEDM are peak ... Read More
In a pumping test the drawdown of the water table in a piezometer is recorded, as response to pumping from a nearby well. Pumping tests belong into the common toolbox of hydro-geologists, used to obtain basic parameters for aquifer characterization. There are various approaches to ... Read More
During the manufacturing of CFRP components one of the most critical process steps is the vacuum bagging. In this process several layers of material are draped separately over complex part shapes. The specific properties of each material, which are needed for the process (i. e. breather, ... Read More
Presented work is motivated by pre-realization phase of rock heating experiment in underground, testing properties for cyclic energy storage. Heating unit, installed in large borehole from end of a tunnel, is fixed to the rock face with the geo-polymer. Rest of the borehole is filled ... Read More
