Electron Energy Distribution Function
The electron energy distribution function (EEDF) strongly influences the results of a plasma model. But what are some ways we can numerically describe the EEDF in the COMSOL® software?
Just Published: Paper on Modeling Spinal Column Stimulation
To determine the effect of scar tissue on electrical current distribution during the treatment of chronic pain, researchers from Beth Israel Deaconess modeled the spinal cord stimulation process.
AltaSim Simulates Mie Scattering of Electromagnetic Waves
Researchers from AltaSim Technologies used simulation to analyze the Mie scattering of electromagnetic waves and how it compares to the Mie solution. Get the full story >>
Acoustic Levitation Puts a Pure Spin on Medicine Fabrication
Engineers from Argonne National Laboratory used multiphysics simulation and trial-and-error prototyping to optimize the effectiveness of an acoustic levitator for medical fabrication.
Exploiting Symmetry to Simplify Magnetic Field Modeling
Get an introduction to the types of symmetry boundary conditions that you can exploit in your EM models.
Modeling an RF Anechoic Chamber Using Periodic Structures
Anechoic chambers can be either acoustic or electromagnetic. These noise-canceling rooms are designed to absorb sound or electromagnetic waves. Simulation can be used to design these devices.
New Book on Topology Optimization for Electromagnetics
Whether you’re a student or an industry engineer, read Multiphysics Simulation: Electromechanical System Applications and Optimization, a reference guide on simulation and topology optimization.
Modeling Convective Cooling of Electrical Devices
We developed a model that includes all of the important details of thermal management in a high-power electrical device. To do so, we needed to use high performance computing with hybrid modeling.
