In view of an energy system based on fluctuating renewable sources, the use of thermal energy storage (TES) systems plays a crucial role. In particular, large-scale underground water-based TES represent a promising solution as demonstrated by a number of cases currently being established ... Read More
Fusion is a form of nuclear energy which has impressive advantages from the point of view of fuel reserves, environmental impact and safety. If successful, fusion energy would ensure a safe, resource conserving, environmentally friendly power supply for future generations. In a world ... Read More
High power consumption chips have already become a major challenge for modern processors causing low thermal performances. Existing thermal solutions are not able to solve these high temperature issues efficiently. Two-phase cooling devices such as heat pipes and vapor chambers have ... Read More
Simulation of laser processes are more and more efficient. In some cases, as welding and additive manufacturing, the physical phenomena are complex, multi-physics and multi-phases, thus some assumptions have to be done. For Laser Powder Bed Fusion, a laser beam melts and vaporizes the ... Read More
Solid-state batteries have emerged as a viable alternative to traditional liquid-based lithium-ion batteries, offering improved cost efficiency, safety, and environmental impact. Chlorine-rich lithium argyrodite (Li6PS5Cl) has emerged as a promising solid-state electrolyte, presenting ... Read More
It is common knowledge to readers of these COMSOL conference proceedings that COMSOL (as well as other established CFD codes) produces unstable numerical solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations without "consistent stabilization" and/or "inconsistent stabilization" (or similar ... Read More
Electroactive actuators are widely used in precision optical systems to control the position and shape of optical elements, such as telescope mirrors. However, the optimal position of the electroactive actuator for a given optical mirror design is not obvious, and numerical optimization ... Read More
Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is a solid-state joining technique that has become increasingly popular and efficient for welding both similar and dissimilar metallic materials. Despite its success in joining dissimilar materials, further development is necessary to meet industry ... Read More
The experience of the eruption in Montserrat in 1997 has shown that the resistance of openings of buildings represents a crucial factor in the evaluation of vulnerability to the stresses caused by pyroclastic flows, although the static nature of the building itself is not compromised. ... Read More
The building sector, especially considering existing buildings, requires an enormous part of a country's energy demand. In the course of the renovation of buildings, therefore, less emphasis is placed on the protection of the appearance of historical/older buildings than on their future ... Read More
