From microelectronics cooling to biological analysis and wearable therapeutic infusion systems, micropumps are steadily becoming a valuable and ubiquitous tool for fluid transport and thermal management. Hence, the development of novel actuation mechanisms that allow for precise ... Read More
The setup of the problem: To develop a mathematical model of cerebral cortical folding development, half-hemisphere geometry is used and the outer layer (gray matter) is allowed to move inward under the effect of both physical and biochemical factors. The model is time-dependent, ... Read More
This paper describes a simulation study performed with the goal of quantifying the correlation between violin design and sound quality. The investigation first explored the resonant modes of the front plate of a violin by examining its eigenfrequencies. Chladni patterns of increasingly ... Read More
Introduction: A small-scale supersonic wind tunnel can represent a convenient platform for supersonic flow testing. The scale considered in this work, with maximum cross-sectional area of 1”x1”, requires simpler structure in addition to the low budget costs and minor space ... Read More
A defining characteristic of atomic layer deposition (ALD) is the sequential exposure of a surface to self-limiting, saturating reactions. Temporal ALD operates through intermittent purge cycles, while spatial ALD relies on physical separation accomplished by delivering reactants through ... Read More
Pancreatic cancer is one of the deadliest cancers, with a 7% survival rate at five years from diagnosis. The limited number of treatment options for patients who are diagnosed with late-stage disease is a major contributor to this problem. Therapeutic modalities such as radiofrequency ... Read More
A technology demonstrator called the “acoustic hyperlens”, constructed using metamaterials, can transform near field waves into far field waves. It is the inherent anisotropic properties of the metamaterial that facilitates this transformation. Prior “acoustic hyperlens” research has ... Read More
The dynamics of phase slip centers in a 1D model of superconducting wire was created based on the set of time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau equations (TDGL). The General Form PDE interface of COMSOL Multiphysics® simulation software was used. TDGL has successfully applied to this problem ... Read More
Some of the most common fluid-structure interaction (FSI) applications in biomedical research include blood flow in the veins and arteries. COMSOL Multiphysics® simulation software offers two main multiphysics schemes for FSI problems: partitioned (segregated) and monolithic (fully ... Read More
We present a numerical model using the Finite Element Method (FEM) with COMSOL Multiphysics® simulation software to characterize Beer-Lambert law. The Heat Transfer Module was used in the program developed to calculate absorption and propagation of heat wave phenomena in a material. ... Read More
