We present a FEMLAB modeling study of an integrated, high-flow rate microfluidic pump for ferrofluids. Initial studies of these microfluidic devices have been performed using a onedimensional setup in MATLAB and later confirmed by corresponding simulations with FEMLAB 3.1 in partial differential...

Around 1950 V.L. Ginzburg and L.D. Landau proposed a phenomenological theory for phase transitions. One of the more successful applications of the theory is to superconductivity and in particular to superconductors placed in a magnetic field. Some superconductors allow for magnetic field...

Crevice corrosion of stainless steel in chloride media was investigated based on an 11 species model. The role of parameters such as pH inside the crevice, external potential, chloride concentration of the bulk solution and crevice geometry was studied.
A thermodynamic criterion for...

A three dimensional numerical simulation of the fluid dynamics of a swirling gas jet is proposed in this study. In the present paper we discuss a three-dimensional numerical simulation of a turbulent swirling jet entering a combustion reactor. Swirl effect is obtained by introducing the flow...

A method for the solidification of a free surface liquid phase is presented and solved with COMSOL Multiphysiscs using a fixed grid. In this case, the Level set method with phase re-injection for mass conservation is used to prescribe the movement of the free surface of the liquid droplet,...

Integration of surface acoustic wave (SAW) devices with nanostructures has gained interest in the development of sensors with high sensitivity. To better design nanostructure integrated SAW devices, it is essential to model three dimensional (3-D) SAW devices and analyze the wave propagation...

The Oldroyd-B family of viscoelastic fluids are notoriously difficult to model numerically. Standard Galerkin finite element methods are prone to numerical oscillations, and solutions break down as fluid elasticity increases. The situation can be remedied to a certain degree however through...

In this paper, we discuss simulation of one-port Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) resonators using COMSOL Multiphysics. Resonator action can be achieved in one of the two ways; a single Inter-digital Transducer (IDT) having several fingers over a piezoelectric substrate or a short IDT with...

Flows in highly heterogeneous media are found in many practical fields, such as hydrology, petroleum engineering, and chemical engineering. The case of two-region heterogeneous media (fractured media, catalytic beds, etc.) plays a fundamental role. The different questions associated to this...

In this paper we study the natural convection for Dual In-Line Memory Module (DIMM) systems. Numerical models are developed using COMSOL Multiphysics. The results, obtained for imposed ambient temperature and operative conditions (power supplied to the CPUs) were produced and complex fluid...
