The biological hair-cell is a modular building block of a rich variety of biological sensors. These sensors are responsive to various mechanical properties like vibration, touch, gravitational forces, etc., especially flow. Using micro and nano-fabrication technology, an engineering ... Read More
Energy harvesting from a fluid flow using piezoelectric materials is a relatively recent topic that has been investigated experimentally and numerically [1, 2]. Its possible application in natural water currents represents an interesting strategy to easily harvest renewable energy from ... Read More
Digital rock physics (DRP) is an emerging field where a rock sample is imaged, relevant physical processes are simulated numerically on the digital rock sample, and the numerical solutions are used for understanding and interpreting the rock in different in-situ conditions. The use of ... Read More
Vibration and Dynamic performances of the rotating machinery are conventionally evaluated based on the dominant structural forces such as the centrifugal forces. The increase in rotational speed, miniaturization and performance, demands for improved and accurate evaluation of the ... Read More

Venovenous extracorporeal life support (VV-ECLS) provides gas exchange support for severe lung failure by using an extracorporeal circuit consisting of a blood pump and an artificial membrane lung. Blood is withdrawn from a cannula placed into the inferior vena cava, and returned from ... Read More
We discuss the use of COMSOL Multiphysics 3.4 in the aerodynamic optimization process of the UNLV solarpowered UAV. We also address the use of COMSOL’s Multiphysics ability and how it was used within the scope of the project. In particular we highlight the development of wingtip devices, ... Read More
The findings presented in this report are results of a five-year effort led by the Research Reactors Division (RRD) of the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), which is focused on research and development toward the conversion of the High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR) fuel from high ... Read More
高分子囊泡是一类由薄膜包裹液体而形成的“软粒子”，其在生物医药、化妆品以及食品等领域具有广泛的应用，是材料领域最富有意义的研究内容之一。与一般微纳米粒子相比，高分子囊泡在外场作用下极易发生形变，因而研究高分子囊泡在微流道中穿过受限孔洞的动力学行为对其在药物输运、细胞筛选、薄膜性能表征等应用领域具有重要的意义。 由于流体（高分子囊泡内部和外部流体）和固体（高分子囊泡膜）强烈地耦合在一起，再加上流体与膜边界的移动和变形，使得高分子囊泡实际的过孔图像十分复杂。本工作借助COMSOL Multiphysics流固耦合（FSIs）接口，运用任意拉格朗日-欧拉（ALE）算法 ... Read More
