Continuous Ink Jet (CIJ) printing technologies are widely used in the field of industrial coding and marking. These technologies are based on the emission of a high-speed jet of ink droplets (20 m/s) onto the surface of a moving medium. To maintain sufficient print quality, it is ... Read More
Overview We successfully simulated a template iontronic system for closed-loop neuromodulation and neurosensing. The model’s goal is to support the careful design of novel platforms for in-vitro micro-electrode-array sensors coupled to conductive polymer-based (CP) ionic actuators used ... Read More
Metasurface (MTS) antennas are based on the use of special types of scattering surfaces patterned at a sub-wavelength scale with electrically small metallic dielectric inclusions, usually called unit cells [O. Quevedo-Teruel et al., Journal of Optics, vol. 21, 2019]. The radiation ... Read More
The wide bandgap semiconductor silicon carbide (SiC) has drawn increasing attention in recent years as a promising material for high-power, high-frequency, and high-temperature operating devices. These outstanding properties of SiC make it a good candidate to replace silicon in many ... Read More
Plasma, a complex fluid consisting of electrons, ions, neutrals, and excited species, exhibits both fluid-like behavior and electrical conductivity due to the presence of charge carriers. Consequently, computational modeling of plasma requires the integration of fluid and electrical ... Read More
In the framework of the EURAMET project 16NRM05, a novel ionization gauge was developed. The goal was to develop a more stable ionization gauge that could be suitable for standardization. The AC/DC Module and the Particle Tracing Module in COMSOL® have been used to design and model the ... Read More
When polypropylene (PP) is produced it contains impurities in the form of dissolved gasses. These gasses can be removed by heating the material (in the form of pellets in a silo) and flushing with plenty of fresh air. However, one of the gasses is C9, which is flammable. We built a model ... Read More
Normally, power lines for electrical power distribution are shielded such that there is (almost) no magnetic field outside the cable. In a substation, these cables are connected to transformers via unshielded components such as switching boards and busbars. Thus, magnetic fields are ... Read More
As part of its research, the Group of Electrical Engineering Paris (GeePs) uses the COMSOL Multiphysics® software for applications in an Electrical Engineering context. At present, a multitude of problems, such as artificial intelligence and the database generation that goes with it, ... Read More
Efficient mixing and pumping of liquids at the microscale is a technology that is still to be optimized. The combination of an AC electric field with a small temperature gradient leads to a strong electrothermal flow that can be used for multiple purposes. Combining simulations and ... Read More
