In this paper we present a new model for computing the current density and field distributions in superconductors by means of a periodic space-time formulation for finite elements (FE). By considering a space dimension as time, we can use a static model to solve a time dependent problem. ... 詳細を見る

Medium- and high-voltage circuit breakers and reclosers are important grid protection devices that connect different grid sources and increase the network/grid reliability. Currently, there is a clear need of increasing the numbers of switching operation. Therefore, the optimal design of ... 詳細を見る

This paper describes the implementation of an app for calculating low frequency electric fields outside electrical installations. The app is based on a 2D parametric geometry chosen in such a way that it approximates a large class of electrical installations, which consist of a tower or ... 詳細を見る

Intracardiac Echocardiography (ICE) ultrasound imaging of cardiac cavities is a known diagnostic and monitoring technique, used during interventional cardiology and electrophysiology procedures. The SOUNDSTAR® Catheter, manufactured by Biosense Webster, Inc., enables locating the ... 詳細を見る

Surface engineering is a key technology used in a wide range of sectors in industry. Among other techniques, it involves adding functionality to a surface. This can be performed by creating a specific topography to a surface using laser texturing. The objective of the work presented in ... 詳細を見る

High temperature thermodynamic data are crucial for a wide variety of applications in nuclear and aeronautic domains as well as material production processes like glass formation or casting. Contactless acquisition methods are preferred to avoid chemical interactions with the container. ... 詳細を見る

The paper describes the use of COMSOL Multiphysics to simulate an ECT (Eddy Current Testing) sensor, designed to inspect the elements of the reinforcement of concrete structures. The paper describes the steps for the COMSOL simulation, and analyze the results for three configurations ... 詳細を見る

The use of microwaves for heating purposes of dielectric materials is encountered in many industrial applications (food processing, chemistry, material engineering and medical applications). In most of these thermal applications, the prediction of the temperature evolution within the ... 詳細を見る

The Levitron offers an interesting demonstration of natural magnetic levitation using permanent magnets. It is composed by a small magnetized top and a circular magnetized base with a hole on its center. The top is placed in an area where magnetic field configuration and gyroscopic ... 詳細を見る

Cogging torque in permanent magnet motors and generators is characterized by a torque ripple. These torque fluctuations cause vibrations, noise and speed fluctuations. This paper presents finite element (FE) analyses results that show a previously unaddressed low frequency modulation of ... 詳細を見る
