Evanescent-wave optical waveguide is widely used as sensing platform for chemical/biological sensor applications. Our research group contributed to on-chip IR sensor technology and made recent progress in miniaturizing such devices utilizing quantum cascade lasers (QCL) in combination ... Read More
The purpose of this paper is to describe numerical electro-thermal simulations of the REMS wind sensor unit and the results obtained by using COMSOL Multiphysics. This device is a hot-film anemometer for 2D wind measurements, which does not have movable parts and is based on the air ... Read More
Environmental factors such as temperature and humidity can significantly affect the quality of the metal powder used in power bed fusion additive manufacturing, leading to variations in the integrity of finished components. It is therefore important to monitor and minimize the exposure ... Read More
In this work, a methodology is developed, based on the application of finite element method in the frequency domain, using the COMSOL Multiphyics software, aiming the sensibility analysis of inductance calculation involving some configurations of an E-core magnetic circuit. Such ... Read More
Here we optimize the geometry: proof mass length Lm to total length L, thickness of the piezoelectric material (Tp) to total cantilever thickness (T) for obtaining the maximum stress distribution (Smax), output voltage (Vout) and power performance (Pout) of the unimorph Cantilever beam ...

In this research, we performed multiple COMSOL Multiphysics® simulations. We analyzed the dispersion curves of waves in a LAMB wave pressure sensor; simulated a thin metal film in a microbolometer and observed the resulting stress; investigated the thermal behavior of an acoustic wave ... Read More
Numerous sensors based on various sensing principles are used to measure pressures and temperatures in wellbores. Of all these sensors, piezoelectric quartz is the most preferred means of sensing pressure and temperature and is probably the only sensor to meet stringent downhole ... Read More
Passing alternating current through a wire placed just above a conducting surface induces eddy currents in that surface. Any cracks present in the conductor modify the eddy current distribution, creating a magnetic field signature unique to the crack. This magnetic signature can be ... Read More
This work describes the implementation with COMSOL Multiphysics® of a thermal simulation of a space environmental chamber, the SpaceQ chamber [1]. Space environment facilities are needed to simulate on Earth the expected performance of hardware and instrumentation that shall operate in ... Read More
Offshore operations, using Robotically Operated Vehicles (ROVs) in areas with high ambient temperatures require ampacity limitations to be established. Specifically, the risk of overheating ROV umbilicals and tethers when running at high power, due to multiple layers on winch drums is a ... Read More
