In this paper we present a set of numerical models created with COMSOL Multiphysics. The set includes quantitative models of a superconducting tape operated at 77 Kelvin, carrying a transport current and exposed to external magnetic field; an array of such tapes and a triaxial high ... Read More
The prediction of concrete materials service life is not easy, because the complex heterogeneous microstructure and the random nature of concrete materials. Study the presence of cracks in concrete and their effect on coupled reaction and transport are of great interest in civil ... Read More
Ionic wind is the gas flow induced by the corona discharge. Ions produced by corona are accelerated by electric field and transfer their momentum to neutral molecules. Using ionic wind one can convert electric energy to kinetic energy of air flow almost directly. The phenomenon of ionic ... Read More
Huang-Ming Lee received his BS and MS degrees in Physics from National Changhua University of Education, Taiwan, in 1999 and 2001, respectively and PhD degree in Materials Science and Engineering from National Chiao Tung University, Taiwan, in 2006. He is currently a postdoctoral fellow ... Read More
ICP reactors are usually meter sized and driven at RF frequencies, for example at 13.56 MHz. We developed a miniature resonator allowing an inductive type of coupling of microwaves at 2.45 GHz to a plasma jet, flowing in ceramic tubes. Previous experiments and simulations show an ... Read More
COMSOL, adding SPICE® elements into its FEM, gives the possibility of a direct modeling of oscillators: triode and load are FEM described while all the other components of the circuit are just simulated using SPICE®. The modeling is not a straight application of any module but needs the ... Read More
Natural groundwater flow can increase the efficiency of geothermal system. But groundwater flow is not available everywhere. A patented new idea is to use air injection well to create artificial flow in sandy or gritty soils. The governing equations of fluid flow and heat transfer ... Read More
In this paper a poly-optimization of the design of the electromechanical actuator is presented. The shape of the actuator is defined by the decision variables. The number of decision variables under consideration is up to ten but in the next step while the multi-coils system will be ... Read More
It is very difficult to measure the global properties of heterogeneous and anisotropic materials like composites and sandwich structures. When designing composite sandwich applications, the elastic properties are required to perform structural stiffness and strength calculations. ... Read More
Metallic bipolar plates promise several advantages for fuel cell applications. On the other hand, cooling of these plates is a critical task regarding design optimization. The high thermal conductivity of the material and the complex geometry of these plates affect directly the cooling ... Read More
