Raman spectroscopy is a commonly used tool in biodiagnostics and sensor technology. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering provides high signal enhancements especially at nanostructured metallic surfaces. In this paper the electromagnetic Raman enhancement from different metallic ... Read More

Study of a Loudspeaker in a Vehicle Door

M. K. Bogdanski [1], F. Malbos [2], M. Strauss [1],
[1] Harman Becker Automotive Systems, VPDT, Straubing, Germany
[2] Harman France, VPDT, Paris, France

COMSOL Multiphysics® was used to evaluate the performance of a woofer coupled to an automotive door. Two uses cases were considered: rigid and non-rigid door structures. Using the Structural Mechanics Module, the speaker membrane displacement was computed for both cases from 20Hz to 500 ... Read More

Radiation Force Effect at the Dielectric Water-Air Interface

G. V. B. Lukasievicz[1], N. G. C. Astrath[2], L. C. Malacarne[2], M. L. Baesso[2], S. E. Bialkowski[3]
[1]Universidade Tecnológica Federal do Paraná, Toledo, PR, Brazil
