COMSOL Multiphysics® is being utilized to develop Thermal Model for Wire Directed Energy Deposition Additive Manufacturing (Wire-DED) process with an objective to analyse the heat transfer phenomenon during and after the process. Wire-DED process’s growing industrial acceptance at a very ... Read More
Plasmonic-based biosensors have emerged as a powerful, cost effective and portable platform for phatogen and biomarker detection. In particular, Localized Surface Plasmon Resonance (LSPR) based systems, which rely on resonance shift tracking, present high sensitivity, specificity and ... Read More
AISI 4130 grade is an alloy steel containing chromium and molybdenum as strengthening agents. The steel has a good strength, toughness, fatigue strength, weldability and machinability. These intriguing properties motivated us to make the 4130 powder via milling process and explore the ... Read More
Flow of lava in underground lava tubes is an important mechanism in volcanic eruptions. Most direct measurements of active lava tube flows are typically impossible due to unstable and dangerous terrain, high temperatures (2140°F / 1170°C), and complex and spatially extended tube networks ...

High temperature thermodynamic data are crucial for a wide variety of applications in nuclear and aeronautic domains as well as material production processes like glass formation or casting. Contactless acquisition methods are preferred to avoid chemical interactions with the container. ... Read More
Piezoelectric micromachined ultrasound transducers (PMUTs) are gaining increasing interest as miniaturized, low-power devices which can be easily integrated with electronic systems for applications such as medical imaging, therapeutic ultrasound, and particle manipulation. This work ... Read More
The impact of surface roughness on the optical transmission of light pipes has been addressed using a geometric optics approximation (GOA); however, there has not been a comparison between the GOA and a wave optics solution to evaluate the relative impact of diffraction effects on the ... Read More
A scientific hypothesis states that cryogenic trapped water is just under the surface of lunar soil at the poles in permanently shadowed craters. Microwave energy can be used to efficiently extract this water from permafrost. COMSOL permits calculation of the heating of simulated lunar ... Read More
In industrial oxygen systems at high temperature and high pressure, contamination by solid particles is one of the principal causes of ignition hazards. Indeed, gas can sweep away particles, generated by corrosion inside the pipes or during maintenance operations (welding residues, ... Read More
Additive manufacturing processes are increasingly used for designing metallic parts with complex geometries. The current needs are focused on the manufacturing of large-scale parts, typically of meter range. However, for such dimensions, the traditional trial-and-error methodology used ... Read More
