Implementation of COMSOL Multiphysics® in Simulink® S-Functions, Revisited

A.W.M. van Schijndel[1]
[1]Eindhoven University of Technology, Eindhoven, The Netherlands

COMSOL Multiphysics® has standard facilities to export models to SimuLink®. Normally, the standard export works well if the solvers, available in SimuLink, can handle the problem. However, if a model in COMSOL Multiphysics® needs special solvers, for example airflow or other non-linear ... Read More

Foundational Undergraduate Teaching and Research Tools In Thermoelectrics Using COMSOL Multiphysics®

D. Buna [1], L. Hoxha [1], D. Tafone [1]
[1] School of Theoretical and Applied Science, Engineering Physics, Ramapo College of New Jersey, Mahwah, NJ, USA

COMSOL Multiphysics® can play a crucial role in jumpstarting undergraduate research programs in physics and engineering at colleges with limited financial support and small faculty size. The engineering physics program at Ramapo College of NJ has 48 majors and 4 full time faculty with ... Read More

Inclusive Routine of the Soil Surface Energy Balance in COMSOL Multiphysics®

[2]Department of Architecture, University of Ferrara, Este, Italy
[3]Faculty of Engineering, University of Nottingham, Nottingham, UK

In ground-coupled heat pumps (GCHPs) the coupling between heat pumps and ground occurs by means of ground heat exchangers, that can be installed vertically inside boreholes (BHEs) or horizontally (HGHEs). In the horizontal installation, the heat exchangers are placed in shallow trenches ... Read More

Air Flow Conditions For Flutter Energy Conversion Device

A. B. Atrah [1]
[1] Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, Malaysia

Fluid flow has the potential to provide significant mechanical energy input for electromagnetic energy harvesters. The effect of a bluff body, such as cylinder played a significant role in the creation of a Karman vortex profile in the fluid flow. We study the effect of the number and ... Read More

Analyzing Fluid Shear Stress in the RCCS: Applications for 3D Cell Culture in Simulated Microgravity

T. Masiello [1], A. Dhall [1], L. P. Madhubhani Hemachandra [1], N. Tokranova [1], J. Castracane [1]
[1] Colleges of Nanoscale Science and Engineering, SUNY Polytechnic Institute, Albany, NY, USA

In the decades since humans first went to space, there has been growing interest in utilizing microgravity to improve our understanding in many scientific fields (1). Applied fields have included evolutionary development, cell mechanics and protein crystallization (2-4). Microgravity ... Read More

Scattering of mm-Waves by Turbulent Structures in Magnetically Confined Fusion Plasmas

O. Chellaï [1], S. Alberti [1], I. Furno [1], T. Goodman [1], M. Baquero [1]
[1] Centre de Recherches en Physique des Plasmas, Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, Suisse

In magnetically confined fusion devices, electron cyclotron resonance heating (80-170 GHz) is characterized by a local RF-power deposition at the electron cyclotron resonance [1]. A mm-wave RF Gaussian beam is launched from a dedicated antenna and propagates through the highly turbulent ... Read More

Modeling of Viscoelastic Phenomena in Concrete Structures

A. Pomarico [1], G. Roselli [1], D. Caltabiano [2],
[1] STMicroelectronics, Lecce, Italy
[2] STMicroelectronics, Agrate, Italy

A growing demand is recently emerging of sensors to be integrated in the concrete in order to measure some critical parameters, such as humidity and temperature and the internal pressure of the material. For example, by monitoring the pressure in various strategic points of the structure ... Read More

Parametric Study of Electrolyte-Supported Planar Button Solid Oxide Fuel Cell

A. Aman[1], R. Gentile[1], Y. Xu[1], N. Orlovskaya[1]
[1]Department of Mechanical, Materials and Aerospace Engineering, University of Central Florida, Orlando, FL, USA

Fuel cells are devices that convert chemical energy of a fuel into electrical energy through electrochemical processes. One of the types of fuel cell is the Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) that uses solid ceramics for electrolytes. Numerical simulation involves constructing a mathematical ... Read More

Multiphysics Approach to Sediment Transport in Shallow Water

E. Holzbecher [1], A. Hadidi [1],
[1] German Univ. of Technology in Oman

Sediment transport in shallow water is of concern in many hydro-ecological problems. Erosion or sedimentation processes are not only relevant in perennial systems as rivers, lakes, reservoirs and coastal regions, but also in ephemeral phenomena like gullies, inundations and floods. ... Read More

Development of a Thermo-Hydro-Geochemical Model for Low-Temperature Geoexchange Applications

F. Eppner [1], P. Pasquier [1], P. Baudron [1],
[1] École Polytechnique de Montréal, Montréal, QC, Canada

Standing column wells (SCW) are open-loop geoexchange systems used to provide space heating and cooling to buildings. As they use groundwater as heat carrier fluid and modify its thermo-chemical conditions along the year, they may favor calcite dissolution and precipitation, thus ... Read More
