Finite Element Analysis Of Permeation Tests On Articular Cartilage Under Different Testing Conditions Using COMSOL Multiphysics

G. Spatafora[1], and F. Boschetti[1][2]
[1]Structural Engineering Department, Politecnico di Milano, Milan, Italy
[2]IRCCS Istituto Ortopedico Galeazzi, Milan, Italy

Articular cartilage is composed by a charged solid matrix (proteoglycan and collagen fibres) and an interstitial fluid phase. The permeability of articular cartilage is a function of compression load applied on the tissue, the solid matrix underwent a compaction that decreased its value ... Read More

Design Of Acoustic Metamaterials Based On The Concept Of Dual Transmission Line

A-S.Moreau[1], H.Lissek[1], and F. Bongard[2]
[1]Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, Switzerland
[2]JAST SA, Antenna Systems, Lausanne, Switzerland

In this context, a one-dimensional acoustic transmission line, exhibiting metamaterial properties, is presented. It is composed of an acoustic waveguide, periodically loaded with membranes having the function of series capacitances, as well as transversally connected open channels ... Read More

Thermal Simulations of Naturally Ventilated Buildings

C. K. Kuruba [1], R. C. Thiagarajan [1],
[1] ATOA Scientific Technologies Pvt Ltd, Bangalore, Karnataka, India.

Ventilation is mainly used to control indoor air quality and for the purpose of thermal comfort by diluting and displacing pollutants. Because of the effects it has on health, comfort, and serviceability, indoor air quality in our homes is becoming of increasing concern to many people. ... Read More

Mathematical Model for Prediction of Transmission Loss for Clay Brick Walls

J. Ratnieks[1], A. Jakovics[1], J. Klavins[1]
[1]Laboratory for Modeling Technological and Environmental Processes, University of Latvia, Riga, Latvia

A 2D numerical model for determination of sound reduction index is set up in this work. Results are in good agreement in middle and high frequency range when using solid structure approximation. Results are compared with experiment. Read More

Poroelasticity Benchmarking for FEM on Analytical Solutions

E. Holzbecher[1]
[1]Georg-August Universität Göttingen, Göttingen, Germany

We examine the poroelastics mode, which couples hydraulics and mechanics by some basic benchmarks. For cases with analytical solutions we check the accuracy for changing meshes and calculate the convergence rate. Read More

Non-Newtonian Hemodynamics and Shear Stress Distribution in Three Dimensional Model of Healthy and Stented Coronary Artery Bifurcation

M.M. Zarandi[1], R. Mongrain[1], and O.F. Bertrand[2]
[1]McGill University, Montreal, QC, Canada
[2]Laval University Quebec City, QC, Canada

In this paper, a three-dimensional model of the coronary artery bifurcation is developed and physiological flow in the both healthy and stented coronary artery bifurcation is modeled using COMSOL Multiphysics. Wall shear stress induced by endovascular stents in the coronary artery ... Read More

Thermal Study of Valve Regulated Lead Acid Batteries and Electronics Chamber Used in Stand-Alone Street Lighting Applications

D. Groulx[1], J. Skaalum[1], T. Jamieson[1]
[1]Mechanical Engineering, Dalhousie University, Halifax, NS, Canada

This paper presents a study on the heat generation of Valve-Regulated Lead Acid (VRLA) batteries used in off-grid streetlighting applications from PoleCo, a Halifax based company. One goal of the project was to produce validated COMSOL® models of the enclosure that holds these VRLA ... Read More

Numerical and Experimental Studies of a Capillary Channel

M. Xu[1], Z. Wu[1], X. Wang[1]
[1]Tsinghua University, Beijing, China

Capillary effects are common in microfluidics due to large surface-to-volume ratio of flows inside microchannels. In biological or chemical analysis, capillary flow is used for the transport of liquid and mixing enhancement, without applying any external means. It’s used in biochemical ... Read More

A Computational Approach for Optimizing the First Flyer Using COMSOL Multiphysics

A.H. Aziz[1], H. Pourzand[1], A.K. Singh[1]
[1]Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA, USA

COMSOL Multiphysics software was used to structurally optimize the Wright brothers’ flyer. The flyer was drawn in SolidWorks, imported and meshed in COMSOL. COMSOL Solid Mechanics module was used to analyze the flyer. Four of the sixteen struts were removed yet the structural ... Read More

Actively Controlled Ionic Current Gating In Nanopores

G. Zhang[1], S. Bearden[1]
[1]Clemson University, Clemson, SC, USA

It is necessary to understand and control nanopore behavior in order to develop biosensors for a variety of applications including DNA sequencing. The fluidics of nanopore devices we fabricated exhibits a range of interesting phenomena, such as enhanced conductance and current ... Read More
