Structural safety assessment of cultural heritage masonry structures plays an important role in safeguarding their integrity and conservation. In this regard, masonry modeling is one of the most challenging tasks, since an accurate reproduction of its mechanical behavior is necessary to ... Read More
Additive manufacturing technology is becoming more popular for the fabrication of metal products as it offers rapid prototyping and large design freedom. However, part quality of components fabricated by current additive manufacturing technology is not comparable to that produced by ... Read More
Damage models can be used to simulate the quasi-brittle behaviour of cementitious materials, since they can represent cracking in a smeared-way under various loading conditions. COMSOL Multiphysics® developed a functionality to access external material models for structural mechanics in ... Read More
The block caving mine is considered by the mining industry as one of the natural replacements of the current open cut mines in the near future. The block caving technique is based on the extraction of small broken rocks, created by blasted initially large solid rocks, and the fracture of ... Read More
Fluid injection and withdrawal in deep wells is a basic procedure in mining activities and deep resources exploitation, i.e. oil and gas extraction, geothermal exploitation, geothermal permeability enhancement and waste ?uid disposal. All these activities have the potential to induce ... Read More
Bentonite based materials (BBM) are considered as ideal buffer materials for deep geological repository (DGR) for nuclear wastes because of several desirable properties, such as low permeability, high adsorption capacity and proper swelling ability (Guo and Fall 2018). However, gas ... Read More
Biomechanics of bone has drawn major concern in research due to social and economic demand. In real life, trabecular bone is subjected to multiaxial stresses during routine physiological loading. Fatigue failure of the bone accounts for various clinical implications, thus studies and ... Read More
In this study, a 2-D model has been built using COMSOL Multiphysics® to analyze a triple coupled physics problem involving simultaneous gas diffusion, heat transfer, and structural mechanics in a pipe due to the flow of high-pressure carbon dioxide. The problem geometry and boundary ... Read More
We compare the output of 2D single fracture models as well as analytical solutions of the problem. The temperature signal is evaluated with the heat transfer mode while the flow field is assumed to exhibit Darcy flow everywhere. The problem is time-dependent so we have to take into ... Read More
Geothermal heat production from deep reservoirs (5000-7000 m) is currently examined, not only in Germany. Our reference set-up consists of two pipes within a single borehole: one for pumping. We examine a design, where a single borehole splits into two legs at a certain depth. The two ... Read More
