2D-modeling of arc welding in butt-joint configuration was performed in this study considering thermal-structural interactions. Thermal behavior was modeled in COMSOL Multiphysics® using the Heat Transfer Module with weld heat input as a Gaussian pulse whereas structural behavior using ... Read More
The multiphysics analysis of a 130 GHz klystron is described in this paper. Critical quantities are exposed to multiple physics effects acting on narrow dimensions modified by power dissipations. The proposed device uses an integrated injection/bunching section described in last COMSOL ... Read More
At the micron-level, thermal actuation exerts larger forces compared to the widely-used electrostatic actuation. To obtain large displacements at low voltage the principle of Electro Thermal actuation is used. It works on the principle of selective non-uniform Joule heating which results ... Read More
Pre-existing oil and gas wells and well bores represent highly permeable pathways for leakage of greenhouse gases; in Alberta alone leaks have been estimated to provide the equivalent of 3.5 million tonnes of CO2 per annum. In addition to abandoned wells without plugs, gas leakage may ... Read More
Bolometer is a thermal infrared sensor used for measuring the intensity of radiation via the heating of a material due to the radiations. A bolometer consists of an absorptive element, a thin layered material, connected to a thermal reservoir. The result is that any radiation received on ... Read More
We simulate a Capacitive Micromachined Ultrasound Transducer (CMUT) using COMSOL Multiphysics® software. The CMUT is an electromechanical system, therefore, we couple the physics of electrical and structural mechanics to describe its dynamics. We obtain the distributions of the electric ... Read More
Fiber optic sensors have been designed for applications ranging from simple proximity detectors to state of the art inertial navigation systems. The optical sensing technique used in each of these applications depends primarily on the requirements. Fiber Bragg Grating Laser (FBGL) based ... Read More
Thermoelectric materials have no theoretical limit to conversion efficiency of heat into electrical power. In order to compete with other forms of power generation and small-scale energy conversion, thermoelectric converters need to maximize their practical usability when integrated with ... Read More
On transmission lines, the theft of redundant steel members from the transmission towers has been reported in recent years. The removal of these members from the tower can result in the collapse of the tower. An alternative to avoid this problematic is to replace some steel components ... Read More
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
