The visual accommodation is a complex biomechanical & optical process. Today in vivo imaging technologies do not allow to measure the eye components material properties, such as the refractive index or the stiffness: these properties are essential to understand and diagnose the ... Read More
Museum buildings strive for a stable indoor climate to reduce the risk of cultural object degradation. An incorrect temperature or relative humidity can induce or accelerate deterioration processes such as biological, chemical or mechanical degradation. In order to reduce these risks, ... Read More
The blast furnace hearth drainage constitutes a major part of the blast furnace operation. Especially, keeping track of the iron and slag levels is crucial to adapt the tapping strategy. The operational target is usually not only to empty the blast furnace as far as possible but also to ... Read More
Heat treatment of the advanced steel grades (like micro-alloyed steels or AHSS steel grades) is a challenging process as the residual stress/deformation are very pronounced and the customer quality requirements are getting stricter. Instead of a trial and error based process control, a ... Read More
The iron ore sintering process prepares fine iron ore for the blast furnace process. A mixture consisting of iron ore, coke (fuel) and additives is ignited at the top and air is sucked from below to move a combustion front down through the bed. Most of the sintering plants use ... Read More
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
Flow channel design in a PEM fuel cell plays a critical role for uniformly distributing reactants to the reaction sites and effectively removing product water to prevent flooding. Simplistic design and uniform reactant distribution make parallel channels a potential candidate for ... Read More
The app discussed in this paper is based on a COMSOL Multiphysics® 1D heat transfer model that analyses the heat flow through a double pane window, with a gas chamber between the two panes, as would normally be mounted in the wall of a building, a container or a refrigerated chamber. The ... Read More
