This session addresses some common challenges in electromagnetic modeling and simulation. The introductory presentation will cover how to pick and choose between a large number of available formulations in three separate modules including the AC/DC Module, RF Module, and Wave Optics ... Read More
This work highlights the use of COMSOL Multiphysics software for simulating the fundamental electromagnetic mode in a single mode optical fiber, and analyze the effect of refractive index profile , on the overall dispersion of a launched signal . For long haul communication, it is of ... Read More
Nondestructive Testing (NDT) refers to a wide group of methods used in industry to evaluate the properties of a material, component or system without causing damage. These include radiography, ultrasound, electromagnetic and visual, among others. Eddy-current testing (ECT) is one such ... Read More
Microwave plasma sources with a resonant cavity have been widely used in microwave electrothermal thrusters as an electric propulsion device, in which free-floating plasma is ignited and sustained in a propellant gas. The resonant cavity microwave plasma has become increasingly ... Read More
Fusion devices (tokamaks, stellarators) require hundreds of millions degree Celsius temperature to reach the plasma state when the fusion reactions start to occur. Ion cyclotron resonance heating (ICRH) is a method of energy transfer to the ions in the plasma from electromagnetic ... Read More
The Multiphysics design of a 130 GHz klystron Buncher cavity is described in this paper. In this high frequency range, dimensions are critical and expose the device to multiple physics effects, due to the power dissipations, affecting the electromagnetic performances. The proposed device ... Read More
Modeling the effects of electromagnetic fields on biological structures on the order of the body and tissues to the micro (1e-6)-and nano (1e-9) level of cells and sub-cellular structures presents formidable challenges. We share the major lessons we have learned using COMSOL ... Read More
The state of the art technology is moving towards more complex and multidisciplinary processes and systems. There is a growing interest in using Multi-physics simulations to have a better understating of the underpinning science of the processes as well as providing cost-effective ... Read More
Induction heating is used in lot of applications: forging, brazing, hardening, melting, bonding. The main advantage is ability to heat quickly, efficiently, and locally with a good repeatability. It leads to productivity and energy efficiency improvement. These solutions are often used ... Read More
Superconducting Magnet system have great application at places which require high magnetic fields, such as the accelerator systems, Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Mag Lev systems to name a few. The superconducting state exists at cryogenic temperature and it is defined by its critical ... Read More
