Safety and Effectiveness Evaluation of Medical Therapeutic and Diagnostic Devices Using EM Fields
Currently, there are a number of promising applications of electromagnetic fields in medical diagnosis and therapy. Some, such as non-invasive monitoring of blood glucose concentration in patients with diabetes or temperature monitoring during hyperthermia, are in the phase of ... Read More
Ionic Neuromodulation and Neurosensing Platform for In Vitro Studies
Overview We successfully simulated a template iontronic system for closed-loop neuromodulation and neurosensing. The model’s goal is to support the careful design of novel platforms for in-vitro micro-electrode-array sensors coupled to conductive polymer-based (CP) ionic actuators used ... Read More
Modeling of Oxygen Metabolism in 3D Cell Constructs with LiveLink™ for MATLAB®
In silico models can be exploited to predict cellular dynamics, such as resource uptake, migration and proliferation. Continuum modelling strategies such as finite element (FE) simulations are amongst the most common, but cannot exhaustively describe the metabolic consumption of cells, ... Read More
Degassing of PP Pellets in a Silo: Keeping C9 Concentrations Below the Lower Explosion Limit
When polypropylene (PP) is produced it contains impurities in the form of dissolved gasses. These gasses can be removed by heating the material (in the form of pellets in a silo) and flushing with plenty of fresh air. However, one of the gasses is C9, which is flammable. We built a model ... Read More
Modeling and Simulation Study of a Fixed-Bed Catalytic Reactor for the Hydrogenation of CO2 to CH4
The "Power to Gas" technology is a promising alternative for storing renewable electrical energy through energy carriers. This technology involves using surplus energy from renewable sources to obtain green hydrogen through water electrolysis. Since hydrogen storage and transportation ... Read More
Modeling of Iron Ore Reduction Above the Cohesive Zone of the Blast Furnace
The blast furnace shaft is a huge counter flow reactor in which heat and mass exchange play a significant role in its mathematical modelling. The heat exchange model is already available in COMSOL Multiphysics® via the Local Thermal Non-Equilibrium interface. This multiphysics coupling ... Read More
Thermal Conduction in Anisotropic Granular Mixtures
