Ultrasound imaging probes are widely used for several types of diagnosis applications. In the present work we focus our attention on a disk-type probe, which is widely used in CW and PW operating conditions. In particular we present a 2D-axial symmetry FEM for the probe, capable to ... Read More
The present work deals with a numerical investigation of resonating systems used for noise control applications. In literature one can find analytical models based on fluiddynamics concepts for evaluating losses occurring across the holes of the perforates. In the paper an acoustical ... Read More
In this work, we investigate the resonant properties of finite-sized membrane-mass-type elastic metamaterial thin plates. We find that the effective bending stiffness of such metamaterial thin plates can be controlled independently by the out-of-plane rotational resonances, so as to vary ... Read More
This work enunciates the principles of SAW design from a physical perspective, examining the standard engineering modelling assumptions in some detail. An integral form analytical expression based on 2D elastic isotropic theory is validated against a COMSOL Multiphysics® simulation, ... Read More
Energy harvesting from a fluid flow using piezoelectric materials is a relatively recent topic that has been investigated experimentally and numerically [1, 2]. Its possible application in natural water currents represents an interesting strategy to easily harvest renewable energy from ... Read More
Manufacture of complex micro-scale parts such as biomedical devices and micro tools that require an excellent surface finish has required non-conventional manufacturing processes such as pulsed electrochemical machining (PECM). Additional reverse polarity pulses make the PECM bipolar ... Read More
Waveguide Structures are often used for transmission of high CW power. The inherent conductor losses in the waveguide material lead to an increase in its temperature. If appropriate thermal management is not undertaken, this high temperature may lower the breakdown threshold of the ... Read More
The vibration of the walls of brass wind instruments has been a subject of study in the field of musical acoustics throughout the last decades. The amplitude of such vibrations, stimulated by the oscillating air pressure inside the instrument bore, is very small compared to the ... Read More
Industrial fluid systems often involve continuous piping loops. These systems consist of varying lengths of pipes and hoses connecting multiple components together. Fluid resonances can detrimentally affect the operation of fluid systems and components. This work used COMSOL to ... Read More
COMSOL Multiphysics was used to simulate the heat flux from battery cells via conjugate heat transfer physics which consist of laminar flow and heat transfer in solids and fluids. Laminar flow function was used to simulate natural convection of air within the sealed enclosure. Heat ... Read More
