Near-Field FEM Simulations: A Vital Tool for Studying Silver-Based Plasmonic Systems

R. Asapu [1], S. W. Verbruggen [2], N. Claes [3], S. Bals [3], S. Denys [1], S. Lenaerts [1],
[1] Department of Bioscience Engineering, DuEL Research Group, University of Antwerp, Antwerp, Belgium
[2] Department of Bioscience Engineering, DuEL Research Group, University of Antwerp, Antwerp, Belgium; Center for Surface Chemistry and Catalysis, KU Leuven, Leuven, Belgium
[3] Department of Physics, EMAT Research Group, University of Antwerp, Antwerp, Belgium

Silver nanoparticles are valuable in the field of plasmonics since silver has a higher field enhancement factor compared to other metals that possess plasmonic properties. The plasmonic properties of silver nanoparticles can be finely tuned to the incident light wavelength through their ... Read More

Numerical Analysis of Radiant Heat Emission Systems

F. Ochs [1], M. Magni [2], M. Bianchi Janetti [1],
[1] University of Innsbruck, Unit for Energy Efficient Buildings, Innsbruck, Austria
[2] University of Bologna, Bologna, Italy

Radiant heating generally addresses all heat emission systems having a share of radiant heat emission greater than 50%, compared to a convector or fan coil where the heat is transferred mainly by means of convection. Recently, so-called infrared-heating systems are discussed as a cost ... Read More

2D Modeling of Elastic Wave Propagation in Solids Containing Closed Cracks

S. Delrue [1], V. Aleshin [2], O. Bou Matar [2], K. Van Den Abeele [1],
[1] Wave Propagation & Signal Processing Research Group, KU Leuven Kulak, Kortrijk, Belgium
[2] Institute of Electronics, Microelectronics and Nanotechnologies, Lille, France

Within the field of Non Destructive Testing (NDT) of materials, nonlinear ultrasonic techniques are becoming increasingly popular, since they provide extreme sensitivity in detecting the presence of incipient damage. However, the next step forward would be to fully characterize the ... Read More

Simulator for Automotive Evaporative Emissions Restraint Systems

S. Schlüter [1], E. Schieferstein [1], T. Hennig [1], K. Meller [1],
[1] Fraunhofer UMSICHT, Oberhausen, Germany

Fuel vapor restraint systems are used in vehicles to avoid discharge of volatile hydrocarbons from fuel tanks. The topic of this paper is the proper operation of fuel vapor restraint systems depending on the composition of bioethanol-fuel-blends. Experimental data serve as input to a ... Read More

A Modified Koutecký-Levich Equation for the Analysis of Electrochemical Flow Cells with Complex Geometries

S. A. Tschupp [1], S. E. Temmel [1], N. Poyatos Salguero [1], J. Herranz [1], T.J. Schmidt [2],
[1] Paul Scherrer Institut, Villigen, Switzerland
[2] ETH Zürich, Zürich, Switzerland

Electrochemical flow cells have found widespread use in analytical chemistry due to their short response time, high sensitivity and selectivity. The geometrical flexibility and therefore, the ease of coupling the electrochemical to other experimental techniques has attracted considerable ... Read More

Numerical Simulations of Ion Cyclotron Range of Frequency (ICRF) Wave Fields in a Linear Plasma Device

M. Usoltceva [1], K. Crombé [4], E. Faudot [3], S. Heuraux [3], R. D’Inca [2], J. Jacquot [2], J-M. Noterdaeme [5], R. Ochoukov [2]

[5] Department of Applied Physics, Ghent University, Belgium; Max-Planck-Institut für Plasmaphysik, Garching, Germany

Fusion devices (tokamaks, stellarators) require hundreds of millions degree Celsius temperature to reach the plasma state when the fusion reactions start to occur. Ion cyclotron resonance heating (ICRH) is a method of energy transfer to the ions in the plasma from electromagnetic ... Read More

Simulating Organogenesis with COMSOL Multiphysics® software: Phase-Field Based Simulations of Embryonic Lung Branching Morphogenesis

L. D. Wittwer [1], R. Croce [1], D. Iber [1],
[1] ETH Zürich, Zurich, Switzerland

While many biological details in organogenesis have been uncovered, fundamental questions regarding the control of growth and shape during lung and kidney morphogenesis remain unsolved. Using mathematical models, we recently showed that only ligand-receptor based Turing models ... Read More

Determination of the Load-dependent Thermal Conductivity of Porous Adsorbents

O. Kraft [1], J. Gaiser [1], M. Stripf [1],
[1] University of Applied Sciences, Karlsruhe, Baden-Würtemberg, Germany

Standard measuring techniques for thermal conductivity cannot be readily applied to determine the load-dependent thermal conductivity of porous adsorbents, because the local ad- and desorption inside the specimen and the thickness of the specimen are not considered. Hence, in this work a ... Read More
