One way to extract piezoelectric material data from measurements is to utilize vibrational eigenmodes of block-shaped test specimens (Rupitsch 2015). Within a simulation-aided approach this results in optimizing the values of the material data parameters to fit the experimental result, ... Read More
Acoustic Resonance (Acu-Res®) Technology [1] is at the core of FT wind sensors, operating by measuring phase shifts between a pair of transducers caused by fluid flow within an acoustic resonator. Three piezoelectric transducers are placed in a triangular formation on the top reflector ... Read More
To achieve a deeper understanding of the mechanism of the Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) scientists use more and more numerical simulations. DBS inhibits overreaching brain activity via electric pulses that send into the brain by electrodes. Different electrode parameters such as geometry, ... Read More
The RF matching network is a critical component positioned between the RF generator and the plasma chamber, designed to transform the plasma impedance to a value suitable for the RF generator. Because the matching network design must be highly customized based on the specific conditions ... Read More
A model of a cell counter sensor based on Impedance Spectroscopy (IS) has been implemented in COMSOL Multiphysics. The cell counter is a silicon-based microdevice consisting in 3D electrodes placed in a wide microchannel: cells flow in the microchannel through the electrodes to be ... Read More
Balises are an essential part of pointwise train control systems ensuring the operational safety. Combined with a corresponding onboard unit, it represents an inductive transponder system (Fig. 1). During a crossing, the balise is activated by the 27 MHz magnetic field of the vehicle ... Read More
For active Structural Health Monitoring (SHM), one popular sensor type is the piezoelectric wafer active sensor (PWAS) due to its multi-purpose application as actuator and sensor and its low cost. It is used to generate a wave field, which interacts with the structure and is recorded by ... Read More
Due to the increase on the academic and industrial interest on thermal energy storage (TES) systems, the EU Horizon project HYSTORE is developing 4 different solutions. In these solutions, the use of thermochemical materials (TCM) and phase-change materials (PCM) are proposed. We ... Read More
Common mode chokes are used in electrical circuits to filter out the electromagnetic interference (EMI). The goal of this study is to simulate the impedance of the choke within a range of frequency from 0.01 MHz to 50 MHz. In this simulation model the COMSOL® AC/DC Module with magnetic ... Read More
Focused Impedance Method (FIM), a new technique of electrical impedance measurement having high sensitivity in the central region, can sense the change in transfer impedance of an object embedded at a shallow depth within a volume conductor of unchanging background conductivity, using ...
