The use of thermoplastic materials is increasing and it is becoming more important during the design process to accurately represent the non-linear material response in relevant loading conditions. The COMSOL Multiphysics® software supports advanced modeling capabilities for large ... Read More
One challenge with converting nuclear research reactors to low enrichment fuels is the thermal-fluid performance. Local areas of high temperature, known as hotspots, limit reactor performance and thus require accurate modeling. A simplified fuel plate model is eveloped to compare ... Read More
The velocity field of a fluid flow in an unbounded domain, R, in which the spin of fluid elements is nonzero only within a bounded subdomain, Ri---namely, the interior of a sphere of radius, a---is simulated by equation-based modeling. A change of independent variable motivated by Kelvin ... Read More
Airborne particles or aerosols are an unstable system with distributed properties among its individual particulate members. Its fundamental property such as particle size, composition, electrical conductivity, magnetic susceptibility, and morphology could change in response to ... Read More
Optical fibers that can deliver mid-infrared light in a wide wavelength range are in high demand due to their significant potentials in sensors, chemical imaging, optoelectronics and nonlinear optics applications. Semiconductors such as Ge, ZnSe and Si are good infrared-transparent ... Read More
Currently, there are approximately 3,400 deepwater wells in the Gulf of Mexico (GoM) having depths greater than 150 meters, and a worldwide undiscovered deepwater reserves estimated to exceed 200 billion barrels and 25% of the total US reserves (BOEM, 2016), while others are in regions ...

Power transmission through power cables installed in ventilated tunnels has been increasingly used worldwide and offers a complex thermal environment. These cables are placed on supports or fixed close to the tunnel walls. Established correlations currently in use have been deduced from ... Read More
The four foot diameter class A evaporation pan is used by the scientific community as the standard for determining evaporation rates for a number of purposes. The COMSOL Multiphysics® software provides the necessary tools to adequately develop synthetic estimates of evaporation values ... Read More
This paper presents a generic interface for reactive transport process modeling that was developed between the COMSOL Multiphysics® software Java API (transport model) and GEMS3K (reaction model). While the transport of different species, kinetics of dissolution/precipitation, system ... Read More
The influence of the energy (heat) stored in the earth as a major factor in environmental soil processes is recognized by the soil science community. The heat (energy) supplied by the earth is known to fluctuate with depth below ground surface and time of year, obviously as a function ... Read More
