Quartz Transducer Modeling for Development of BAW Resonators

L.B.M. Silva[1], E.J.P. Santos[1]
[1]Laboratory for Devices and Nanostructures, Electronics and Systems Department, Universidade Federal de Pernambuco, Recife, PE, Brasil

Transducer optimization is a key aspect for successful development and deployment of advanced sensors, especially when designing 3D structures for harsh environments. For piezoelectric transducers, plate thickness determines the operating frequency of the resonator, which is frequently ... Read More

Comsol’s New Thermoviscous Interface and Computationally Efficient Alternative Formulations for FEM

W. R. Kampinga[1], and Y. H. Wijnant[2]
[1]Reden, Hengelo, Netherlands
[2]University of Twente, Enschede, Netherlands

Three efficient alternatives to the model in COMSOL’s thermoacoustics interface are presented. The higher efficiency of these models are explained from theory and are demonstrated by means of two examples. Read More

Modeling the Dynamic Viscous and Thermal Dissipation Mechanisms in a Fibrous Porous Material

B.P. Semeniuk [1], P. Göransson [1],
[1] KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Marcus Wallenberg Laboratory for Sound and Vibration Research, Stockholm, Sweden

The main mechanisms of acoustic attenuation in a bundle of fibres typical of lightweight fibrous porous materials are the dynamic viscous drag forces on the surface of the fibres, and the thermal heat transfer between the solid fibres and the surrounding fluid. Microstructure models ... Read More

Modeling Magnetic Induction from Transient Events Impinging upon a Conducting Moon

H. Fuqua[1], G. Delory[1], I. de Pater[2], R. Grimm[3]
[1]University of California - Berkeley, Space Sciences Lab, Berkeley, CA, USA
[2]University of California - Berkeley, Berkeley, CA, USA
[3]Southwest Research Institute, Boulder, CO, USA

Electromagnetic sounding measurements utilize magnetic induction to constrain the interior geophysical properties of planetary bodies. Under some conditions, the Earth’s moon can be approximated by the response of a conducting sphere in a vacuum. Transient magnetic fields originating ... Read More

Optimization of MEMS Based Capacitive Accelerometer for Fully Implantable Hearing Aid Application

A. Dwivedi [1], G. Khanna [1],
[1] NIT Hamirpur, Hamirpur, Himachal Pradesh, India

This work describes the design and optimization of three prototypes of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) capacitive accelerometer-based middle ear microphone. The microphone is intended for middle ear hearing aids as well as future fully implantable cochlear prosthesis. The analysis ... Read More

Static and Dynamic Simulation of an Electromagnetic Valve Actuator Using COMSOL Multiphysics^®

R. Wislati[1] and H. Haase[1]
[1]Institut für Grundlagen der Elektrotechnik und Messtechnik, Leibniz Universität Hannover, Hannover, Germany

In this paper an Electromagnetic Solenoid Actuator (EMVA) consisting of an upper and lower electromagnet, a linear moving armature and two preloaded springs is considered as a potential approach in Variable Valve Actuation (VVA) systems for internal combustion engines. The analysis of ... Read More

Fluid Structure Interaction of Arch Dam on Full Reservoir Level under Seismic Loading

R. Manikandan[1], R. Jayashiri [1], R. Indumathi [1], J. Archana [1],
[1] Dhirajlal Gandhi College of Technology, Salem, Tamil Nadu, India

The Finite Element Model is analyzed with impounded water considering appropriate boundary conditions between the water & the upstream face of the dam .The fluid on the upstream side is considered to be incompressible, inviscous, and irrotational. Here the effect of fluid ... Read More

Second Order Drift Forces on "Offshore" Wave Energy Converters

L. Martinelli[1], A. Lamberti[1], and P. Ruol[2]

[1]DISTART Idraulica, Università di Bologna, Bologna, Italy
[2]IMAGE, Università di Padova, Padova, Italy

Objective of this contribution is to present a procedure for evaluating second order drift forces on floating bodies, often the most important loading component for mooring design, in case of high waves propagating in relatively shallow water depths. The non linearity associated to this ... Read More

Inlay Fixed Partial Denture Framework 3-D Structural Integrity Validation Using COMSOL Multiphysics^®

T.M.R. Alho[1]

[1]Department of Electrical Engineering and Automation, University of Vaasa, Vaasa, Finland

Manual manufacturing of inlay fixed partial denture frameworks by metal casting can take hours of dental practitioners work time. This paper introduces 3-D simulations of premanufactured inlay fixed partial denture framework assembled from laser cut sheet metal parts. The study gives a ... Read More

Optimization of Device Geometry of a Fully-Implantable Hearing Aid Microphone

A. Dwivedi [1], G. Khanna [1],
[1] National Institute of Technology Hamirpur, Himachal Pradesh, India

The hearing impairment is affecting more than 360 million people all over the world.In India alone, 63 million people suffer from the significant auditory loss. Conventional hearing aids suffer from reliability, practicality and social stigma concerns. The totally implantable devices ... Read More
