For a specific project in downhole tools for oil and gas wells, we have to weld the tool before shipping and the tool must be programmed during installation on the rig location. For this reason we decided to use magnetic communication and power transmission as well. We have used COMSOL ... Read More

Model calibration and validation were implemented using experimental data from literature. We utilized a microfluidic electrochemical cell that was configured with parallel, rectangular, and multi-layered channels, which is operating in a co-flow mode. CO2 gas stream enters the cathode ...

This work explores the implications of wholly random and non-linear nanostructures on electromagnetic wave propagation within a multiphysics simulation environment. Showcased is a way to noticeably bypass the inaccuracies drawn from the linearity dependency of traditional simulation ... Read More

This contribution aims to demonstrate a method of application of COMSOL Multiphysics®to solve a multi-scale problem whose essential feature is a kink with an unknown configuration. The search for its shape and details of its structure is the main task of the study. This task I studied ... Read More

New methods of generating high-frequency magnetic fields of tens or even hundreds of millitesla at frequencies exceeding 2 MHz are allowing important new applications for induction heating. These include heating low conductivity ionic solutions in situations where electric or ... Read More

Introduction In recent years there has been a focus on using topology optimization in the field of acoustics [1,2], whereas previously the technique has been applied mostly within structural mechanics, thermodynamics, and fluid dynamics [3]. This paper describes the mathematical basis ... Read More

A wide variety of engineering applications, such as electronics, solar collectors, and internal combustion engines produce heat. This heat can be a positive or negative aspect for a particular application. Enhancing heat transfer has encouraged many researchers to investigate various ... Read More

Here we present a simulation for evaluation of novel obscurant candidates under high-energy laser (HEL) illumination. This approach incorporates thermal modeling into obscurant characterization, allowing for evaluation of the temperature increase of the candidate obscurants as well as ... Read More

As a part of the Pan-Canadian framework for clean growth, Canada is intent on meeting its 2030 emission targets for which 17% of Canada’s total Green House Gas emissions come from buildings. Given this challenge, emphasis is being placed on developing building designs having greatly ... Read More

The yield and selectivity of a chemical reactor are controlled by the rates of desired reactions relative to those of undesired side reactions. These reaction rates are controlled by the local concentration of reactants, as often described by elementary rate laws. Chemical engineers ... Read More
