This work describes a model for plasma formation in the keyhole and above the EBW zone. The parameters of the plasma are closely connected to the characteristics of the thermal action of the electron beam on the welded metal, which allows operational control and study of EBW. The ... Read More
Mathematical Modeling has a long history in developmental biology. Advances in experimental techniques and computational algorithms now permit the development of increasingly more realistic models of organogenesis. In particular, 3D geometries of developing organs have recently become ... Read More
Multiphysics Simulation of Polymer-Based Filters for Sub-Millimeter Space Optics This work focuses its analysis on polymer-based filters used in space-borne astronomical instrumentation for Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation and Far-Infrared observations. Most of these observatories ... Read More
Research at Fraunhofer EMI addresses the response of materials in extreme dynamic loads. Besides mechanical or thermal loads, intense electric pulse currents also represent an extreme dynamic load. Experimentally, metallic samples, mainly thick wires, were electro-mechanically loaded ... Read More
This study is focused on using a thermoelectric device (TED) as an alternative to the cryogenic liquid for cooling cryosurgical probe used for cancerous tissue ablation. Thermoelectric device, namely Peltier, is a solid state device which converts electric current to thermal gradient. In ... Read More
The historic Hofkeshuis in Almelo (The Netherlands) locates a unique work of art: three walls in the rear salon of the private house are covered with an 18th century series of painted wall hangings (Figure 1). The simple and similar pigmentation of the paintings, their original hanging, ... Read More
Paper based lateral flow assays are widely used as point of care devices for disease diagnostics due to their low cost, short run time and ease of use. Binder molecules specific for certain molecular biomarkers of interest are typically deposited as dots or lines on paper strips, ... Read More
A COMSOL Multiphysics® simulation was used to simulate the behavior of a micro-membrane (Acoustic Pixel) to be used as a potential acoustic transducer. The MEMS and Piezoelectric devices interfaces were used to simulate such transducer. A four-cantilever spring configuration is initially ... Read More
Numerical simulations applied to blood flow together with the imaging processing advances are a powerful tool in the prevention and treatment of some diseases. The inclusion of real data in the numerical blood flow simulations allows the achievement of more realistic and accurate ... Read More
In a laboratory setup a horizontal rod is heated on one side. By natural convection a stable temperature pattern is developed. Using the Nusselt formulation of the natural convection of cylindrical rods, the temperature distribution can be calculated. Only a good match of the simulations ... Read More
