Multiscale Model of the PECM with Oscillating Cathode for External Geometries Using a Virtual Switch

I. Schaarschmidt [1], M. Zinecker [1], M. Hackert-Oschätzchen [1], A. Schubert [1], G. Meichsner [2],
[1] Professorship Micromanufacturing Technology, Chemnitz University of Technology, Chemnitz, Germany
[2] Fraunhofer Institute for Machine Tools and Forming Technology, Chemnitz, Germany

The machining of hardened steel or powder metallurgical steel, for example to manufacture impact extrusion punches, is a big challenge for conventional machining technology as milling or turning. A non-conventional machining technology is Electrochemical Machining (ECM), which allows ... Read More

Approximation of the Flow Field in Electrochemical Machining Incorporating Pressure Drop Calculation

R. Paul [1], M. Zinecker [1], M. Hackert-Oschätzchen [1], A. Schubert [1],
[1] Professorship Micromanufacturing Technology, Chemnitz University of Technology, Chemnitz, Germany

Electrochemical Machining (ECM) is a non-conventional machining technology which allows for surface structuring and shaping of metallic workpieces with high accuracy and surface quality. The machining principle of ECM is electrolysis. Hence, the mechanical properties of the workpiece ... Read More

A Numerical Heat Transfer Analysis on an Implantable Phase-Change Actuated Peristaltic Micropump

F. Forouzandeh [1], D. A. Borkholder [1],
[1] Rochester Institute of Technology, Rochester, NY, USA

Advances in protective and restorative biotherapies have created new opportunities to address vestibular disorders, deafness, and noise induced-, sensorineural-, and age-related hearing loss. Controllable and implantable drug delivery micropumps are essential for therapy development in ... Read More

Simulating Organogenesis in COMSOL Multiphysics®: Comparison of Methods for Simulating Branching Morphogenesis

L. D. Wittwer [1], M. Peters [1], S. Aland [2], D. Iber [1],
[1] ETH Zürich, Zurich, Switzerland
[2] University of Applied Sciences, Dresden, Germany

Organogenesis, the genesis of organs during embryonic development, is an active research field involving biologists, mathematicians and computational researchers. Fundamental questions of the formation of shape and the control of growth are still not answered. We focus on the development ... Read More

Computational Fluid Dynamics Approach to Evaluate Electrostatic Precipitator Performance

M. Ahmadi [1]
[1] Faculty of Engineering Technology, University of Twente, Enschede, The Netherlands

Electrostatic precipitation is an extremely efficient way of filtering fine particles from the airstream. Electrostatic precipitators (ESPs) can control airborne emission without significantly slowing down the rate of flow, because of the low pressure drop across this type of filters. A ... Read More

Radiofrequency Ablation and Its Effect on Heat Generation on Ground Pads

J. J. Barrett [1], M. Brown [1,][2],
[1] Halyard Health, Alpharetta, GA, USA
[2] Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, GA, USA

Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a minimally invasive procedure that can be used to treat chronic pain. Radiofrequency (RF) energy is emitted through a probe that is placed near a sensory nerve in the region of pain. The RF energy excites the nearby ions in the tissue causing them to ... Read More

Electroceutical Modeling with Advanced COMSOL® Techniques

K. Carlson [1,][2], J. Begnaud [3], J. L. Shils [4], S. Dokos [5], L. Mei [1,][2], J. E. Arle [1,][2]
[1] Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston, MA, USA
[2] Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, USA
[3] Livanova Neuromodulation, Houston, TX, USA
[4] Rush Medical Center, Chicago, IL, USA
[5] University of New South Wales, Sydney, NSW, Australia

Neuromodulation is the use of electromagnetic fields to modulate the human nervous system, typically to treat neurological disorders. Electroceuticals is an ambitious program to modulate any nerve, anywhere, anytime, for any reason — to treat disease, disorders, and enhance or interface ... Read More

Gas Permeation Through the Polymeric Membrane – Fluid Behavior in the Permeate Channel

M. Szwast[1]
[1] Department of Chemical and Process Engineering, Warsaw University of Technology, Warsaw, Poland

For membrane gas separation modeling, some assumptions are made. One of the most typical approaches in such modeling is to assume a plug flow in the feed/retentate channel and ideal mixing conditions in the permeate channel. For membranes with high permeation, the permeate flux could be ... Read More
