Evaluation of Dynamic Coefficients of a Plain Journal Bearing
When analyzing rotors, it is common that bearings are modeled through their effective dynamic coefficients about a static equilibrium position. This model illustrates how to compute such coefficients for a plain journal bearing. The bearing length is kept much smaller than its diameter ... Read More

Verifying the Friis Transmission Equation with FEM–BEM Coupling
In this model, the transmitter (microstrip patch) and receiver (Yagi–Uda) antennas are modeled simultaneously in the FEM domain and are coupled with FEM–BEM coupling. The results are compared with the analytical Friis transmission formula. In detail, the emw and emw2 interfaces find out ... Read More
Minimizing the Flow Velocity in a 3D Microchannel
Inverted elements can prevent large deformations for shape optimization. This model demonstrates how this problem can be circumvented using export/import of the geometry and a model method. The technique is demonstrated on a benchmark problem from topology optimization, where the ... Read More
Carbonation in Water
This example shows how to model carbonation, which is a type of sparging. Sparging is a mass transfer process between a gas and a liquid that is common in industry (such as beverage carbonation and photobioreactor applications) and at home (aquarium aeration). In the carbonation model, ... Read More
