The mixing characteristics and residence time distributions (RTDs) of a staggered herringbone microchannel have been investigated numerically by COMSOL Multiphysics and by particle tracking algorithms that incorporate diffusion via a random walk. All simulations were validated with ... Read More
The Constrained Vapor Bubble is a fundamental fluid mechanics experiment that is scheduled to run aboard the International Space Station starting in August 2009. The experiment is focused on looking at evaporation and condensation processes at the contact line, where vapor, liquid and ... Read More
Parallelization of droplet microfluidics is a challenging task because of the complex fluid mechanics coupling between parallel devices. Failure of few droplet generators can influence the size distribution of the final product and the correct operation of the neighbor devices. One of ... Read More
COMSOL Multiphysics software was used to simulate the working of the electrode. The piezoelectric device physics was used to evaluate the displacement created and the potential generated due to piezoelectricity of PDMS. The potential created due to the flow of bio-signals between neurons ... Read More
The Laser Metal Deposition process (LMD) is a rapid free form fabrication method which can be used to manufacture new near net shape metallic components, to repair used ones or to add functional parts on existing ones. This process is composed by multiple gas streams flowing inside a ... Read More
The paper presents 3D finite element simulation of Love wave based SAW delay line using COMSOL Multiphysics software. The device consists of a 36° YX Lithium Tantalate substrate covered with 4.7 μm thick SiO2 waveguide layer operating at λ = 12 μm. Time response study is used to ... Read More
This work describes the design and optimization of three prototypes of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) capacitive accelerometer-based middle ear microphone. The microphone is intended for middle ear hearing aids as well as future fully implantable cochlear prosthesis. The analysis ... Read More
A dielectric multilayer structure, with a grating profile on the surface layer, can couple light into a strongly confined surface wave, known as a Bloch surface wave. These surface modes can be used to design bio-sensors. The corrugated surface structure also enables azimuthal angular ... Read More
Ionic polymer-metal composite (IPMC) materials are promising candidates for soft robotics and artificial muscle applications. The primary actuation mechanism in such devices is ion migration in a polymer membrane, localized swelling, and a corresponding overall material deformation, ... Read More
Introduction: Medical devices undergo a series of evaluations in order to determine their performance and level of safety in a magnetic resonance (MR) environment. The standard of focus for this work is ASTM F2052-15 which measures the induced displacement of a device due to the ... Read More
