In the last decades, the topic of microfluidic Electroosmotic Pumps (EOP) gained the attention of scientists all over the world. One of the greatest advantages of the electroosmotic pumps is the fact, that there are no moving parts. With the effect of electro osmosis, it is possible to ... Read More
Modern aluminum casement windows consist of an inner and outer profile made of aluminum, which are separated by an insulating bar made of polyamide (see Figure 1). Due to the low heat conductivity of the plastic material the thermal interaction between the living space and the ... Read More
INTRODUCTION The global energy infrastructure is comprised of a variety of power magnetic devices (PMDs) which include motors, generators, transformers, inductors, actuators, relays, etc. In the field of power engineering, and particularly in the design of PMDs, modern advances are ... Read More
Introduction: Flat lenses require precise control of a phase gradient across an interface, which is enabled through the application of engineered surfaces, such as Metasurfaces [1]. Periodic arrays of plasmonic antennas have been utilized to generate this desired phase gradient, which ... Read More
Due to the advantages of induction heating as a method for precise and efficient local heating, it is perfectly suited for thermal shrink fitting of a gear wheel on a shaft. In this work, a simulation model was established to study the induction heating of a gear wheel, its thermal ... Read More
Selective Laser Melting (SLM) offers great potential for future manufacturing technology. In order to extend its applicability for the processing of high melting materials like molybdenum fundamental process understanding is required. This can be obtained by multiphysical simulations ... Read More
An extension of the Solid Mechanics interface in COMSOL Multiphysics® is presented to analyze localized deformations of quasi-brittle materials, for example cracking in concrete. This is achieved by implementing an isotropic damage mechanics constitutive law, which is combined with both ... Read More
Time-dependent multiphysical simulation of pulsed and continuous laser welding of dissimilar metals, based on Moving Mesh (ALE) approach, is proposed. Strong coupling between heat transfer, laminar compressible flow and ALE is used. The model was validated for a case of single ... Read More
