Hydrogen has the potential to be an important source of clean energy, but the development of efficient and cost-effective methods for storing hydrogen is a key challenge that needs to be addressed in order to make widespread use of hydrogen as an energy source possible. There are ... Read More
Microwave hyperthermia (HT) offers a promising approach to cancer treatment by selectively heating tumors to temperatures between 42-44°C, enhancing the efficacy of radiotherapy and chemotherapy [1]. To effectively treat deep-seated and sub-superficial tumors, state-of-the-art clinical ... Read More
Foam is a multiscale material composed of many millimetric cells. Altogether, the cells can easily be shaped into almost any object of the metric scale, provided that a mould is available to let the initial mixture expand appropriately. While some mechanical properties such as foam ... Read More
This study focuses on optimizing the lengths of various structural components around a cylinder to minimize drag. Using COMSOL Multiphysics, numerical simulations involving Laminar Flow were performed. Key components optimized include an arrowhead positioned upstream and two flaps ... Read More
TRB company is developing a wide range of high-performance refractory products adapted to the needs of big industries such as blast furnace, steel works, foundry, cement, heat treatment furnace, etc... These products are formulated with silico-aluminous materials and other special ... Read More
Stability of food webs under environmental changes like e.g. climate change depends on the effect of a time-dependent parameter like temperature on population level and community level. As predator-prey relationships depend on individual size, all populations involved must be size ... Read More
A critical element in understanding the pre-breakdown and breakdown mechanisms in gas/solid insulation systems is the triple point. This point is where two dielectric materials and a conductor intersect. Understanding these mechanisms at the triple point is crucial for designing systems ... Read More
This paper focuses on the transition from gas heating to induction heating in industrial packaging processes. The aim of the study is to simulate and size the induction heating system of a thin aluminum strip for industrial welding packgies, using COMSOL Multiphysics. The strip that will ... Read More
A substantial campaign of simulations was recently launched in the Bonomi Group with the goal of improving the understanding of the multiphysics involved in high voltage equipment such as aerial power lines, insulators, surge protectors and disconnectors. The activity not only resulted ... Read More
Efficient mixing and pumping of liquids at the microscale is a technology that is still to be optimized. The combination of an AC electric field with a small temperature gradient leads to a strong electrothermal flow that can be used for multiple purposes. Combining simulations and ... Read More
