Nature inspired innovation powered many engineering innovation. For example, Bird inspired flight helped us to develop intercontinental flying long range aircraft with efficiency as comparable to transcontinental migratory birds. But, short range air travel, efficiency is much lower than ... Read More
Metal Additive Manufacturing (AM) can be used to create topologically complex designs that would otherwise be difficult or impossible to produce using traditional methods. However, non-destructive inspection and testing of these structures is made difficult by the presence of internal or ... Read More
A quantification of spatial and temporal evolution of laser-induced plume would enhance the comprehension of high speed imaging results and allow optimizing the acquisition conditions for the emission spectroscopy. What temperature and concentrations of the evaporating species are ... Read More
In recent years, with the rise of quantum optical technologies, there has been a spurring research interest growing on single-photon emitters (SPE). To date, the focus in engineering improved SPE has been mainly towards better enhancement overlooking the tenuous manufacturing process ... Read More
Injection molding is one of the most diffused processes for mass production of polymeric components. It is adopted in many fields, from the automotive one to the biomedical field. The aspects related to environmental pollution make mandatory the reduction of plastic wastes, especially ... Read More
Metal foams are interesting materials with many potential applications. Foamed metals or alloys include gas voids in the material structure and therefore the density is introduced as a new variable, with the real possibility to modify ad hoc their physical properties. In the indirect ... Read More
COMSOL Multiphysics® with LiveLink™ for Matlab® is used for the numerical analysis of dielectric barrier discharges (DBD), which are widely used in various fields of plasma technology, such as surface processing, plasma medicine, and agriculture. The fluid model comprises balance ... Read More
Binder jet printing (BJP) is one of the additive manufacturing methods that are being widely implemented as an efficient alternative for casting and machining in the automotive industry. Sintering densification of the as-printed part (green part) adds uncertainty and possible undesirable ... Read More
To investigate the thermal-mechanical behavior of oceanic transform faults, we calculate 3-D steady-state incompressible mantle flow and heat transport using COMSOL Multiphysics. Our model incorporates a nonlinear viscous rheology with a visco-plastic approximation to simulate ... Read More
Electrospinning is a process where high voltage is applied to produce polymer fibers of nanoscale diameter. Various polymers have been used for this process in molten form or as a solution with an appropriate solvent such as glycerol. The melt solidifies while the solvent evaporates to ... Read More
