Acoustic emissions generated by active defects in structures, like bridges, aircraft, and pipelines, play a crucial role in detecting flaws in their structural integrity by non-destructive evaluation techniques. Commercially used acoustic emission (AE) sensors are made of piezoelectric ... Read More
In this paper, we report FEM studies of the effect of unwanted interfering structural vibrations on the performance of an underwater Acoustic Vector Sensor (AVS) performed in the COMSOL Multiphysics simulation tool. An AVS is a compact sensor that measures a four-dimensional vector ... Read More
This study presents simulation findings from a 4-way link box assembly, aimed at understanding temperature-related challenges. The primary objective was to assess maximum temperatures within the assembly, focusing on the Complete Assembly, UET, Copper Busbar, and Wedge Link Busbar. ... Read More
Transformer bushings are power system equipment installed on transformers tank to connect overhead conductor & transformer leads. These Bushings at high voltages carry large currents leading to higher temperature & catastrophic failures. Whereas excess insulation further reduces ... Read More
Multilayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) are an emerging class of dielectric materials with promising applications in modern nanophotonics. They exhibit a much higher refractive index (~ 4 - 4.5) than traditional semiconducting materials like Silicon (~ 3.5) in the near ... Read More
Liquid Metal Fast Breeder Reactor (LMFBR) employs molten sodium as coolant due to its suitable neutronic and thermal properties. Measurement of coolant flow rate is a very important factor both from operational and safety aspects of a fast reactor. Good electrical conductivity of liquid ... Read More
The present work explores the integration of guided mode resonance (GMR) structures and topological photonics, characterized by the presence of Jackiw-Rebbi (J-R) solution. The developed surface enhanced GMR structure may serve as a platform for refractive index sensing across various ... Read More
This paper presents a finite element (FE) model of the scattering studies of cylindrical pressure housings made of different metallic alloys such as aluminium, stainless steel 316L and titanium. Understanding the acoustic scattering behavior of underwater objects helps in improving ... Read More
Recent events underscore the importance of rapid diagnostic tests for detecting viruses such as the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus or for screening cancer biomarkers. Many fluidic-based diagnostics applications require careful control of chemical and biological species concentrations. In this ... Read More
In the manufacturing of high voltage electrical equipment, an important step to guarantee a right dielectric design can be carried out through the prediction of a possible occurrence of the corona effect or, in the worst case, of dielectric breakdown, preferably in early stages. For this ... Read More
