Optimization of mixing in microfluidic devices is a popular application of computational fluid dynamics software packages, such as COMSOL Multiphysics, with an increasing number of studies being published on the topic. On one hand, the laminar nature of the flow and lack of turbulence in ... Read More
Atomic layer deposition(ALD) is one proven method to deposit ultra-thin films. ALD is advantageous for its atomic-level thickness control and conformity; leading to high quality films. Slow deposition rates for conventional ALD contribute to the impracticality of utilization of this ... Read More
A tapered cylindrical microwave resonant cavity, a frustum, also commonly known as an EM Drive, has been reported to produce thrust by the generation of EM radiation within a resonant cavity without using any propellants. In order to determine how a sealed microwave cavity can produce ... Read More
At the Kansas City National Security Campus (KCNSC), simulation analysts are often called upon to evaluate designs and manufacturing processes performed in the plant. Precision mechanisms need to be assembled on clean benches that provide laminar airflow to prevent dust contamination. ... Read More
Recent rapid progress in MEMS with wireless communication system has enabled low power micro sensor network for human body, Body Area Sensor Network (BASN). The information gathering from BASNs will provide a significant opportunities for various medical applications. One of the key ... Read More
Introduction Computer science has become siginificant tool for design, research and development in many industries and universities. On high-level simulation area such as multiphysics simulation area where many physics are coupled, in general, only professionals could handle such state ... Read More
The U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) is currently exploring the use of infrasound sensors to monitor the health of structures of interest. Infrasound is acoustic energy below 20 Hz and is capable of propagating many kilometers from the source with little ... Read More
Passive, one-way valves, also known as check valves, while common at the macro scale, are an essential microfluidic feature that facilitate flow rectification. These structures are also commonly used in reciprocating micropump configurations to control flow. Their operation can be ... Read More
Mechanical simulation at one pair of asperity contact has been conducted using the COMSOL Multiphysics® software and the Structural Mechanics Module to study the sliding friction of rock fractures surface as real fracture surface contact slides driven by pressure solution. The evolving ... Read More
In the present study, the performance of the two novel solar thermal collectors are modeled using COMSOL Multiphysics. Firstly, Parabola and seagull geometries are utilized as primary and secondary reflector with high concentrator(50X) for high temperature application (650°C). Secondly ... Read More
