The foaming process of a metal is a complex operation which needs to be closely controlled in order to guarantee the wanted properties, by avoiding the formation of defects in the structure of the material. In this work we use COMSOL Multiphysics® version 4.3b and apply the diffuse ... Read More
In this paper, the effects of roughness in the surfaces of the plates caused due to nonuniform etching during their release and/or due to defects in the original wafer on the capacitance in RF-MEMS parallel plate varactors are analyzed. Capacitance extraction due to surface roughness has ... Read More
A planar anode-supported intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cell operating on syngas fuel at 750°C was analyzed in this study. The effects of varying syngas fuel inlet compositions on species and temperature distributions, water gas shift reaction rate, potential for carbon ... Read More
Superparamagnetic nanoparticles have a wide range of applications in modern electric devices. Recent developments have identi fied them as components for a new type of magnetoresistance sensor. We propose a model for the numeric evaluation of the sensor properties. Based on the solutions ... Read More
Today a horn driver developing is still time and cost consuming. In addition compression driver behavior depends by the horn profile. In this study is proposed a new technique to model a combination of an existing compression driver and a virtual horn, in order to predict the horn driver ... Read More
Stationary flow configurations in curved pipes constitute an important subject from both the theoretical and the practical point of view. A typical application concerns the calculation of secondary flow effects on the thermal efficiency of heat exchangers. Motivated by a similar problem, ... Read More
Fluid Structure Interaction (FSI) plays an important role in the seismic analysis and the design of Hydraulic structures. In this study, the acoustic finite element model is analyzed with impounded water considering appropriate boundary conditions between the water & the upstream ... Read More
A COMSOL Multiphysics® simulation was used to simulate the behavior of a micro-membrane (Acoustic Pixel) to be used as a potential acoustic transducer. The MEMS and Piezoelectric devices interfaces were used to simulate such transducer. A four-cantilever spring configuration is initially ... Read More
The application of an oscillating magnetic field on the high-power full-penetration laser beam welding process of a 20 mm thick stainless steel plate was numerically and experimentally investigated. In the simulations, three-dimensional heat transfer and fluid dynamics as well as ... Read More
The aim of this work is to present a simple multiphysics simulation using COMSOL able to describe combustion of kerosene vapours in a closed vessel. The emphasis is on the mechanical effects of the reactive processes. The evolution of the thermodynamical variables (pressure, temperature, ... Read More
