Environmental factors such as temperature and humidity can significantly affect the quality of the metal powder used in power bed fusion additive manufacturing, leading to variations in the integrity of finished components. It is therefore important to monitor and minimize the exposure ... Read More
The biological hair-cell is a modular building block of a rich variety of biological sensors. These sensors are responsive to various mechanical properties like vibration, touch, gravitational forces, etc., especially flow. Using micro and nano-fabrication technology, an engineering ... Read More
High-resolution imaging is useful in oil and gas exploration to identify producing fractures that can be in the millimeter thickness range. In principle, high-resolution imaging maybe achieved using “current injection” to measure the electrical conductivity of the formation. Two current ... Read More
In a solid core PCF, structural parameters and the number of rings in the cladding region decide confinement losses, dispersion coefficients as well as bending losses. This paper evaluates some of commercially available solid core photonic crystal fibers. The dispersion coefficients and ... Read More
With the rising predominance of diabetes, successful management of blood glucose levels is increasingly important. Key efforts have focused on the development of optical microscale glucose sensing systems based on the encapsulation of glucose oxidase within microspheres coated with ... Read More
Water adsorption in highly porous materials can be used in heat transformation processes for the efficient use of energy in heat and cold production. One technology for such a thermal heat transformation is the use of water adsorption in highly porous adsorbents like zeolite. To ... Read More
Temperature and residual moisture content of a stationary Textile in a home tumble dryer are simulated in a 2D model with COMSOL Multiphysics. Moisture migration to the textile surface is modeled in the form of capillary flow and vapor diffusion along with heat transfer in the form of ... Read More
In this paper a finite element method(FEM) study of a surface acoustic wave (SAW)device excited by electrostatic coupling method is performed by using COMSOL Multiphysics. We have modeled a Rayleigh wave type SAW device by choosing YZ Lithium niobate as the substrate. The effect of ... Read More
We present a Finite Element Method simulation procedure that allows rapid development of prototype devices comprising novel self-referenced interference SPR (surface plasmon resonance) biosensing microstructures. The procedure takes advantage of COMSOL Multiphysics and MATLAB software ... Read More
Ultra-thin chips of less than 20µm become flexible, allowing integration of silicon IC technology with highly flexible electronics. This combination allows for highly intelligent products of unprecedented thinness, flexibility and cost. Examples include sensor systems integrated into ... Read More
