Frequency and Electrode Separation Recommendations for EDA Measurements

S. Sridhar [1], T. J. Akl [1],
[1] Analog Devices Inc., Wilmington, MA, USA

Electrodermal Activity (EDA) is a measure of changes in the conductivity of the skin. It has have been found to be indicative of the individual’s autonomic nervous activity which is correlated to their stress and emotional state. These conductivity changes are tracked by injecting a ... Read More

Numerical Modeling of Nanopipettes for Electrophysiology and Imaging

J. Rabinowitz [1],
[1] Columbia University, New York, NY, USA

Nanoscale pipettes allow for exciting extensions of traditional current- and voltage-clamping electrophysiology experiments. However, bulk electrodynamic properties begin to break down at nanoscale openings, introducing unusual effects that must be understood in order to properly ... Read More

Evaluation of the Induced Excitation of the Peripheral Vestibular System Using Micro Scale Inductors

S. Mukesh [1], P. Bhatti [1],
[1] School of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, GA, USA

According to the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data, 35 % of US adults aged 40 years and older have evidence of balance dysfunction based on the modified Romberg test. In this vestibular dysfunction, patients are not able to see stabilized images on their retina during ... Read More

Increasing Dust Removal Efficiency of Electrodynamic Screens Using Frequency Optimization via COMSOL Multiphysics®

C. Morales [1], R. Eriksen [1], M. Horenstein [1], M. Mazumder [1],
[1] Boston University, Boston, MA, USA

Utility-scale photovoltaic (PV) and concentrated solar power (CSP) generation facilities are located in desert environments throughout the world to take advantage of the high availability of sunlight in these areas. Unfortunately, naturally occurring sandstorms in these deserts often ... Read More

Design of a Nucleic Acid Biosensor Using COMSOL Multiphysics®

L. Velmanickam [1], D. Nawarathna [1], V. Jayasooriya [1],
[1] Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, North Dakota State University, Fargo, ND, USA

Cancer is one of the leading causes of deaths worldwide. According to the American Cancer Society, there will be about 700,000 cancer related deaths in US in 2017. Cancer mortality will be reduced if it is detected and treated at the early stages. Previous studies have shown that ... Read More

Improved Understanding on Collection of Airborne Particles by Permanent Magnetic Assembly

M. Cheng [1], B. L. Murphy [1], G. M. Ludtka [1], P. Cable-Dunlap [1],
[1] Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Oak Ridge, TN, USA

Magnetic nanoparticles have diverse applications ranging from contamination control to medical diagnosis and treatment. Small airborne particulate matter (PM) is known to have adverse impacts to human health,, due to its high mobility when penetrating human respiratory systems [1,2,3]. ... Read More

HIIPER Space Propulsion Simulation Using AC/DC Module

Z. Chen [1], D. Ahern [1], G. Miley [1],
[1] University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Urbana, IL, USA

The Helicon Injected Inertial Plasma Electrostatic Rocket (HIIPER) is an electric space propulsion concept being studied that utilizes a helicon source to generate a plasma and metal grids from inertial electrostatic confinement (IEC) fusion experiments to accelerate ions, generating a ...

MHD Electrolyte Flow within an Inter-electrode Gap Driven by a Sinusoidal Electric Field and Constant Magnetic Field

C. Bradley [1], J. Samuel [2],
[1] Benét Laboratories, U.S. Army RDECOM-ARDEC, Watervliet, NY, USA
[2] Department of Mechanical Aerospace and Nuclear Engineering, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, USA

PECM is a necessary extension to traditional ECM for some high-performance materials. Electrolyte flow in the inter-electrode gap (IEG) can be assisted using a magnetic field to allow higher currents, but this creates a magnetohydrodynamic flow. This paper presents a study of flow ... Read More

Simulation of a Vortex Ring: Dealing with the Unbounded, Doubly Connected Domain

J. M. Russell [1],
[1] Emeritus Professor, Florida Institute of Technology, Melbourne, FL, USA

This talk is for intermediate-level users of COMSOL who, like the present author, are relative newcomers to numerical simulation but have a strong grounding in Hydrodynamics or related areas of Mathematical Physics. Most turn-key Computational Fluid Dynamics packages, including COMSOL ... Read More

Numerical Modeling of Resistive Switching in a RRAM Device

D. Niraula [1], V. Karpov [1],
[1] University of Toledo, Toledo, OH, USA

A new nonvolatile memory device based on its resistance state has emerged known as resistive random access memory (RRAM). It operates by switching between the high resistance and low resistance states which can be interpreted as logical 0 and 1 variables. Understanding the resistive ... Read More
