Visualization of a Noise Barrier for Educational Purposes Using a COMSOL App
The COMSOL® app library of the Technical University of Munich is a collection of applications for simulating acoustic phenomena. They are used in the teaching of acoustics to visually represent fundamental vibrational aspects and provide learners with a visual understanding. In the ... Read More
Add-In ‘GoalSeeker’ – Advanced Parameter Optimization in Single and Combined Models
Simulations usually depend on a variety of parameters like geometric dimensions, process parameters, loads, or material properties. Typically, some of these parameters are fixed whereas others may be varied to obtain a special result. In many cases a simple sweep can be used to examine ... Read More
Using of General Extrusion Operator in Heat Transfer Applications
In this paper, the COMSOL Certified Consultant BE CAE & Test shows as the general extrusion operators can be successfully used to simulate thermal transfers in an industrial rotating furnace. Heat transfer in translating and rotating furnaces is a topic of high interest in several ... Read More
Monte Carlo Simulation to Model Natural Variability in Food Drying
Convective drying of fruits and vegetables is a widely used preservation method and serves to reduce food waste, to make them available off-season and to reduce weight-related transport costs. However, the high energy consumption and impact of the process set-up and process settings on ... Read More
Polarizability of a Spherical Particle in an Anisotropic Medium
As part of our primary research focus, we explore the phenomenon of non-radiative resonance energy transfer (RET) between a pair of dipoles positioned within a hyperbolic metamaterial (HMM). Our investigation reveals that the presence of an HMM can fundamentally alter these non-radiative ... Read More
Quantum–Electromagnetic Coupling in Time Domain Simulations Using COMSOL Multiphysics®
INTRODUCTION The coupling of the Schrödinger and Maxwell equations allows to predict the self-generated electromagnetic (EM) field for a quantum charged particle moving in a domain. Such problem is really challenging, and it must be investigated in order to simulate the behavior of a ... Read More
Fully-Coupled Transient Modeling of a Highly Miniaturized Electrostatic Pull-In Driven Micropump
We present a problem-adapted finite element model, which enables the design of a novel type of a highly miniaturized, electrostatic MEMS membrane pump, as well as the investigation and the optimization of its operation. The electro-mechanical actuation scheme constitutes a strongly ... Read More
Numerical Simulation of Thermal Resistance and Heat Transfer Coefficients of Textile Structures
This study focuses on the prediction of thermal comfort properties such as the heat transfer coefficient, and thermal resistance coefficient of textiles structures with additional ventilation. The input mass flow rate 0.2 dm3/min and 0.8 dm3/min were taken into account. It should be ... Read More
Prediction of Douglas-Fir Sawn Timber Strength based on X-ray Computed Tomography and FEA
Due to climate change impacts and the worsening growth conditions of Norway spruce (Picea abies) the species composition of European forests is being diversified, incorporating more hardwoods as well as drought-resistant softwood species, such as Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii). As a ... Read More
Software Interface for Material Database to COMSOL® Material Library
The use of advanced manufacturing technologies expands the design scope of lightweight components for aerospace systems and enables innovative possibilities for complex structures [1, 2]. The overall approach of the AdHyBau (Additive Hybrid Construction) joint project is to develop new ... Read More
