Microfluidics and Biosensors are two principal fields that paved the way for the inception of Lab-on-a-chip (LOC) which provides early and cost-effective disease detection, from monitoring to treatment. LOC is a device that uses very small amounts of fluid on a microchip to do certain ... Read More
Interacting with digital devices has become part of daily life, whether in consumer products, services, or industrial applications. Most display-based devices provide user interactivity through touch sensing via a touch panel. As the number of device features increases, it demands an ... Read More
The process-induced deformation in the DED fabricated part is a critical issue to the scaling of the technology. Currently, an inefficient and expensive experiment trial-and-error approach is utilized to tackle this issue, however it is not feasible for large parts. Researchers have ... Read More
Thermal sterilization is a critical process in the food industry as it ensures the safety and shelf-life of food products for long-term preservation by eliminating all microorganisms and their spores from a food product. This process requires huge energy and water consumption, and ... Read More
Abstract: In order to study thermal conditions and air flows in an office room, 3D FEM simulation model was created. The room is enclosed by walls, floor and ceiling which thermal characteristics are specified by typical heat transfer coefficients and specific heat capacities. Space ... Read More
A tablet blister cavity is thermally modelled using the Shell interface in COMSOL® and a response surface created to connect to other simulations such as process flow/cost models to form a surrogate model. This virtually represents a pharmaceutical tablet packaging line, that is ... Read More
This paper proposes a solution method using piezoelectric sensors to detect an anomaly, such as a deformation caused by a crack or fracture, in a pipeline. COMSOL Multiphysics, a simulation software, is used to induce anomalies of different magnitudes to a pipe and record the data from ... Read More
Vibration-based Piezoelectric Energy harvesters convert ambient vibration energy into an applicable electrical charge for wireless sensors, IoT applications, and charging the battery, which is most important to range improvement of the Electric Vehicle. This study analyses different ... Read More
With the use of COMSOL Multiphysics®, a full characterization of star shaped geometry structures of silver-zinc oxide (Ag-ZnO-Au) study is presented. Analysis with different thicknesses of gold cover, as well as with different lengths and additional arrangements of the structure have ... Read More
This paper presents the design and simulation of novel micrometer-scale capacitive temperature sensors, which could serve as a component for miniaturized wireless sensor nodes for the internet of things requiring structural flexibility and optical transparency. The proposed sensor design ... Read More
