The present study manifests the several ground breaking flow phenomena arising out of hydrodynamic interactions between two microorganisms swimming inside a microchannel with close proximity. The results theorized in the present investigation scrutinizes the varying behavior of the ... Read More
Phenomena of heat and mass transfer are often compared, in various porous media applications. Questions of practical interest are, for example, if tracers can be used for the prediction of heat flow, or vice versa if heat can be utilized as, possibly retarded, tracer for predicting the ...

In a nuclear reactor, the containment is the last barrier for the release of radioactivity during severe accident conditions. Containment material can be concrete or steel or steel-lined concrete. Steel containments have a high load bearing capacity and a high degree of leak tightness at ... Read More
A discrete model for the prediction of relative ion bombardment flux and target erosion in planar sputtering magnetrons is implemented in COMSOL Multiphysics®. Planar magnetrons are used within physical vapor deposition (PVD) processes to form thin film depositions on various types of ... Read More
In this study, a biomimetic vibrating 3D MEMS Gyroscope is designed, consisting of two circular diaphragms with a club shaped structure placed over one of them. This MEMS based vibrating gyroscope was modeled and simulated using COMSOL Multiphysics 4.1 - MEMS module. The purpose of the ... Read More
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
In our project, we propose an innovative software solution to the problem of electrical arcing risk prediction in high-voltage on-board electronic equipment intended for long-term self-contained use, e.g. in spacecraft conditions. It completely based on so-called “decomposition” approach ... Read More
A synthetic Jet actuator is a device which moves a fluid in and outside a cavity, through a small aperture, by the continuous oscillation of a diaphragm. The multiphysics interaction between the piezoelectric disk, which deforms due to the alternating voltage, and the fluid makes COMSOL ... Read More
This study highlights the possibility of using COMSOL Multiphysics for solving large scale PEM fuel cell stack models in the order of several million degrees of freedom (DOF). First, different gas flow channel configurations are solved in order to highlight the fluid flow and pressure ... Read More
Pulsed DC technology has led to the design of cost-effective deposition systems and to improved film properties, compared to conventional rf systems. In this work, a two-dimensional finite element model is used to investigate the high frequency pulsed DC discharges in nitrogen. The study ... Read More
