Faraday Cages Say ‘Do Not Pass’ to Electromagnetic Waves
Faraday cages are found in microwave ovens, protection suits worn by electrical line workers, and even novel “boxes” that are meant to eliminate distractions from cellphones and other devices.
A Multilevel Approach to Modeling Planar Discharge in CO2 Lasers
Check out the multilevel approach to plasma modeling used by a researcher in the laser industry, who used the flexibility and functionality of COMSOL Multiphysics® to optimize a gas laser design.
Analyzing the Design of a New Generation of Midinfrared Fiber Optics
Semiconductor simulation software is a promising method for advancing the design of midinfrared fiber optics because it can be used to measure propagation losses in the optical fibers.
Studying an Innovative Wireless Power Transfer Method with Simulation
Current wireless power transfer technology involves charging pads or stands. Disney Research is using simulation to investigate an innovative method called quasistatic cavity resonance (QSCR).
Predict Thermal Drift in Microwave Filters Using Multiphysics Simulation
When subjected to high-power loads and harsh environmental conditions, microwave filters can experience thermal drift. One way to predict this unwanted effect is with multiphysics simulation.
Designing and Optimizing MRI Birdcage Coils Using Simulation
An MRI birdcage coil should have an optimized magnetic field distribution around a patient’s head. Using RF simulation, we can design such biomedical systems.
Assessing a Radome Design’s Ability to Improve Antenna Directivity
Bad weather and harsh environmental conditions can negatively effect antenna directivity, and in turn, wireless communication. Using simulation, you can design radomes that improve this quality.
Designing CSRR-Based Sensors to Monitor Chronic Kidney Disease
Chronic kidney disease can be effectively diagnosed, prevented, and treated through the use of noninvasive CSRR-based sensors. Researchers optimized the design of these sensors with simulation.
