Keynote: Multiphysics Models and Magnetostrictive Transducer Design

In the COMSOL Conference 2013 Boston keynote presentation, Julie Slaughter of ETREMA Products, Inc. showcased the use of multiphysics modeling in magnetostrictive transducer design. In this video of her speech, you will learn about the different models used during each of the development stages, from ideation to design verification. Slaughter discusses techniques for diagnosing design problems and the importance of system-level modeling to new and existing hardware designs. Furthermore, she presents comparisons of multiphysics simulation to experimental magnetostriction data and gives a glimpse into future modeling efforts that are predicted to improve product performance, costs, and manufacturability.
