In the field of pasta drying, where accurate prediction of temperature and moisture content distribution is critical, the use of modeling and simulation plays a key role. This study aims to assess operational conditions that ensure the production of safe, high-quality pasta. An advanced ... Read More
Superconducting coils are used to generate high magnetic fields in various applications such as nuclear fusion reactors, particle accelerators, actuators and MRI scanners. Electrodynamic modelling of superconductors is challenging because of the significant nonlinearity in the electric ... Read More
Bitumen and asphalt durability is a critical concern in pavement engineering, particularly in the context of sustainability and carbon footprint reduction. Accurate prediction of the lifespan of these materials is essential for life cycle assessment (LCA) from cradle to grave. However, ... Read More
Abstract In this work, the positive enhancing effect of conductive polyaniline (PANI) as an interfacial core-shell layer coated over a piezoelectrically active barium titanate (BTO) nanoparticles on the output electro-elastic properties (relative dielectric constant, piezoelectric co ... Read More
Balanced armature (BA) micro-speakers, or receivers, are miniaturized loudspeakers used in hearing aid instruments, earphones, and hearables. A typical design of a BA receiver includes an armature (metal beam) with a coil wound around it. The armature tip is positioned exactly in the ... Read More
This work presents a comprehensive modeling and validation study of MEMS-based infrared (IR) emitter chips using a neural network-assisted inverse modeling approach in COMSOL Multiphysics. Starting from a single baseline chip geometry, a simulation model was developed that captures the ... Read More
Microfluidic systems traditionally rely on fixed physical barriers to manipulate fluids and particles. While effective, these static structures lack the flexibility required for dynamic or multifunctional applications. In this work, recently published in Nature Photonics [1], we present ... Read More
Retention force and its frictional contribution influence on the plug-socket connection stability Aikaterini Tziotziou*, Oleg Antoniuk, Bas Haayen, Michele Colloca Receiver and RIC Development Department, Modeling and Simulation Team, Sonion Nederland, B.V. The plug-socket connection ... Read More
The thermo-hydraulically coupled code COMSOL-VIPER (Kröhn and Fromme 2023) based on the balance equations of the experimental VIPER code (Kröhn 2011) for simulating water uptake by bentonite has been further advanced. Bentonite is of particular interest as a geotechnical barrier against ... Read More
Stray light represents a significant challenge in a wide range of photodiode and photodiode array applications, as it elevates the background signal, reduces detector sensitivity, and degrades the signal-to-noise ratio. Traditional approaches to mitigate stray light, such as blackening ... Read More
