One of the upcoming technologies in displays is that of the electrowetting displays. A surface can be covered by a colored oil or transparent water using a voltage to increase or decrease the wettability of the surface. A simulation of the behavior of such a thin film of oil in water, ... Read More
Determining the thermal conductivity of condensed matter attracted much attention in past years. While several techniques exist to measure the thermal conductivity of solids or thin films, the 3-omega-method is one of the most well-established due to its high accuracy. First, COMSOL ... Read More
Development of very high speed integrated circuits is currently of great interest for today\'s technologies. This paper presents the quasi-TEM approach for the accurate parameters extraction of multiconductor transmission lines interconnect in single, two, and three-layered dielectric ... Read More
Phase gratings are used in many applications owing to their high transmission and thus higher diffraction efficiencies. COMSOL is based on finite element modeling and is chosen for 2 reasons; firstly, because it can handle complex 2-D and 3-D geometries and secondly, it can handle the ... Read More
This paper discusses a geometrical optimization method for thermoelectric generators. Our method provides the optimized geometry in accord with various arbitrary conditions such as types of materials, volume of materials, temperatures of installation position, and shape of installation ...

In our experiments with manipulating cells with DEP, we noted that some cells are constantly spining. By hypothesing that the cell spining is caused by the non-circular shape of the cell body and the off-centered location of its nucleus and that the rotation direction depends on the ... Read More
3D FEM simulation of millimeter-scale, complex electro-optically induced waveguide based devices demands the use of grids with more than several million nodes. Hence the simulation could take substantial time and require large amounts of available memory. This paper presents a ... Read More
In this paper a thermal electric finite element method (FEM) analysis was used to investigate the thermal properties of individual electrically driven platinum micro-heaters. The geometric optimization for the micro-heater was performed by simulating a wide range of possible geometries ... Read More
This paper presents a design of polymer based micro heater operating in the temperature range of 200- 250°C which could be operated at low voltage (battery operated). The micro heater has been designed and simulated using COMSOL 4.1, FEM simulation tool. Simulation was performed for ... Read More
Although resuscitation during pregnancy is relatively uncommon and rarely causes death, they have a particularly large impact in terms of the mortality of the unborn child and long-term effects on families and society as whole. In this paper, we present a new 3D finite element model of a ... Read More
