Modeling the Hyperloop with COMSOL®: on the Mechanical Design of the EPFLoop Capsule

L. Benedetti [1], Z. Sajó [1], N. Riva [1],
[1] EPFL - EPFLoop, Lausanne, Switzerland

The Hyperloop is a concept system targeting passenger transportation aiming to carry people in a pod running in a high vacuum tube at 1200 km/h. In 2015, SpaceX announced that they would sponsor a Hyperloop pod design competition, because of their interest in helping to accelerate the ... Read More

Numerical Study of the Tuning, Pressure Sensitivity and Lorentz Force Detuning of SRF Crab Cavities

E. Cano-Pleite [1], A. Amorim [1], J. S. Swieszek [1], K. Artoos [1], O. Capatina [1],
[1] European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN), Geneva, Switzerland

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is the world’s largest and most powerful particle accelerator. The LHC machine consists on a 27 km circumference tunnel that accelerates and collides proton beams and heavy ions. The High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) is a project aiming to upgrade the LHC ... Read More

Acoustic Upside-Down Levitator with a Solid Sample

L. Holitzner [1], E. G. Lierke [2],
[1] Paul Scherrer Institut (PSI), Villigen PSI, Switzerland
[2] tec5 AG, Oberursel, Germany

Introduction: Acoustic levitators are used to levitate small samples (ca. 0.01 - 6 mm) at a stable position in a gas or liquid environment. Acoustic levitators were first developed und used for experiments in space (1970s, by NASA / ESA), the application later became terrestrial (1990s). ... Read More

Ultrasound Pressure Field of a Resonating Piezoelectric Membrane with Three Excitation Electrodes

V. Tzanov [1], E. Ledesma [1], F. Torres [1], N. Barniol [1],
[1] Universitat Autonoma de Barcelona, Spain

Micromachined ultrasound transducers can work as a sensor or actuator for measuring fluid speed and direction, mixing and exciting particles (sonication), taking images (ultrasonography), non-destructive testing and many other purposes in various fields. In this work, a COMSOL ... Read More

Modeling of Random Nanostructures Based on SEM Images and Analysis of Resulting RF-Performance

K. Neumann [1], J. Moeller [1], L. Kuehnel [2], A. Rennings [1], N. Benson [2], R. Schmechel [2], D. Erni [1],
[1] General and Theoretical Electrical Engineering (ATE), University of Duisburg-Essen, and CENIDE – Center for Nanointegration Duisburg-Essen, Duisburg, Germany
[2] Institute for Nanostructures and Technology (NST), University of Duisburg-Essen, and CENIDE – Center for Nanointegration Duisburg-Essen, Duisburg, Germany

In the last few years printable electronics has gained a great deal of interest since it promises mechanical flexibility and extremely low production costs. One approach to achieve printable electronic devices relies on the usage of specific inks containing e.g. dispersed semiconductor ... Read More

Mechanical Damage Models for Concrete

M. Laviña [1], A. Idiart [1],
[1] Amphos 21 Consulting S.L., Barcelona, Spain

Damage models can be used to simulate the quasi-brittle behaviour of cementitious materials, since they can represent cracking in a smeared-way under various loading conditions. COMSOL Multiphysics® developed a functionality to access external material models for structural mechanics in ... Read More

Multiphysics Approach to Sediment Transport in Shallow Water

E. Holzbecher [1], A. Hadidi [1],
[1] German Univ. of Technology in Oman

Sediment transport in shallow water is of concern in many hydro-ecological problems. Erosion or sedimentation processes are not only relevant in perennial systems as rivers, lakes, reservoirs and coastal regions, but also in ephemeral phenomena like gullies, inundations and floods. ... Read More

Mazar’s Damage Model for Masonry Structures: a Case Study on an Italian Church

M. Mori [1], A. De Falco [1], G. Sevieri [2],
[1] Università di Pisa, Italy
[2] Università di Firenze, Italy

Structural safety assessment of cultural heritage masonry structures plays an important role in safeguarding their integrity and conservation. In this regard, masonry modeling is one of the most challenging tasks, since an accurate reproduction of its mechanical behavior is necessary to ... Read More

Prediction of Thermoacoustic Instabilities in Combustion Systems - Application to a Simplified Model of a Domestic Boiler

D. Tonon [1],
[1] T4G Engineering GmbH, Switzerland

The reduction of NOx emissions in combustion systems like domestic boilers, gas turbine combustors, industrial burners, etc., can be achieved by using lean premixed combustion technologies. One of the major concerns in the operability of such systems is their susceptibility to ... Read More

Modeling of Pound Cake Baking Behavior in Continuous Flow

M. Khodeir [1], O. Rouaud [2], V. Jury [2], P. Le-Bail [3],
[1] ONIRIS, GEPEA, France
[2] GEPEA - UMR 6144 CNRS - ONIRIS, Nantes, France
[3] INRA, UR 1268, Biopolymères Interactions Assemblages, Nantes, France.

Cake batters are complex fat-in-water emulsions with four bulk phases (aqueous, fat, gas, and solid starch granules). The process of cake baking is very complex since a change in thermo-physical properties of batter take place during this process. The aim of this project is to develop an ... Read More
