The electromagnetic pumping (EMP) of electrically-conducting fluid is of growing interest for many industrial applications requiring precise flow control, enabling stopping or reversing flow direction without any moving parts or mechanical devices. Presented in this work are the results ... Read More
In this paper an electromagnetic solenoid actuator (EMVA) consisting of an upper and lower electromagnet, a linear moving armature and two preloaded springs is considered as a potential approach in Variable Valve Actuation (VVA) Systems for Internal Combustion Engines. In opposition to ... Read More
This paper describes the automatic optimization of an electromagnetic actuator using a genetic algorithm. The actuator modeled here is dedicated for charge changing valve actuation in internal combustion engines. In the first step of the simulation, several operating points are ... Read More
Although microwave heating has been studied in great detail, microwave combination heating has not. This work investigated this in a novel microwave combination system that heats the sample through a combination of microwaves and hot air. The study used a coupled electromagnetics ... Read More
While prosthetic joints can improve people’s quality of life, there is an unmet need for the treatment of post-surgery infections. A novel technology has been developed that can treat these infections with electromagnetic heating. A series of anatomical models of knees with implants ... Read More
This research introduces an electro-optic modulator based on a Metal-Semiconductor (M-S) junction, aimed at advancing functional plasmonic circuits through active control of surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) at the interfaces of M-S devices. To evaluate the device's performance, we ... Read More
Magnetized target fusion (MTF) is a promising approach to achieve fusion conditions that relies on the heating of a magnetized plasma by the rapid compression of a magnetic flux conserver. The compression timescale must be significantly shorter than the plasma’s thermal confinement time, ... Read More
Splitting a 3D model into two coupled components can increase performance [1]. Two offshore applications with the AC/DC module and the heat transfer module are presented, but the approach is general. The examples simulate the hotspot temperature in a three core cable with cross-sectional ... Read More
Particle In Cell (PIC) simulation tool for the simulation of 2.45GHz ECR ion source was developed tanks to Comsol Multiphysics RF module capability to compute electromagnetic field propagation imposing a tensorial permittivity with real and complex parts. A tensorial description is ... Read More
X-rays represent high-energy electromagnetic radiation capable to penetrate matter and are therefore widely used in medical diagnostics, material testing and various other applications. They are typically produced by vacuum tubes with electrons emitted from a hot cathode and accelerated ... Read More
