In various industries (nuclear power plants, furnaces, …), heat transfer by radiation can occur between many geometrically ordered tubes. Such configurations are challenging and heavy to solve numerically, because of both the nonlinearities of the radiant exitance, and the fact that ... Read More
As the global use of COMSOL® apps continues to grow, many developers are seeking practical and secure methods to protect their applications and control their usage. While traditional paid software often relies on license keys, there has been a lack of simple and flexible tools tailored ... Read More
Solid-state magnetic refrigeration near room temperature, based on the magnetocaloric effect (MCE), is being investigated as an environmentally friendly and sustainable alternative to traditional vapor-compression systems (responsible for the 7.8% of greenhouse gas emissions) [1] [2], ... Read More
The use of impellers is extremely widespread across various industrial applications. Fluid motion, mixing processes, and propulsion are just a few of the fields in which impellers play a key technological role. In general, impellers enable energy transfer through the interaction between ... Read More
Germanium-tin (Ge₁₋ₓSnₓ) microdisks are emerging as a promising platform for CMOS-compatible group-IV light sources due to their tunable direct bandgap and compatibility with silicon photonics. Their optical and electronic properties are critically influenced by tin concentration, strain ... Read More
In a recent theoretical effort, a hydrodynamic model of ultracold, but not yet quantum condensed, dipolar gases has been derived [1,2]. Within this model, the dipolar scattering results in an anisotropic viscosity tensor. Effects of the anisotropy have been predicted to be observable in ... Read More
The WaveEL buoy developed by the company Waves4power is characterized as a point absorber and has a 36 meters long vertical cylinder where a water-piston is oscillating due to induced motion from the waves. Estimating the wave loads on the piston is a challenge due to the presence of ... Read More
Electromagnetic actuators are an important actuation tool to achieve positioning precision on the nanometre scale. In this realm Lorentz actuators are mostly used, due to their linear dependence between actuation force and applied current. The ever growing demand to increase the force ... Read More
