Modeling Microfluidic Separations Using COMSOL Multiphysics
Infrared spectroscopy can be used to identify chemicals in a stream provided the signal is strong enough. A microfluidic device is modeled here with the objective of separating serum components so as to enhance the metabolite/protein concentration ratio. Serum contains creatinine (a ... Read More
Implementation of the Perfectly Matched Layer to Determine the Quality Factor of Axisymmetric Resonators in COMSOL
Due to the inseparability of the wave equation, numerical methods are needed to develop an accurate electromagnetic model for various axisymmetric resonators such as micro-discs and micro-toroids. Our purpose is the implementation of a perfectly matched layer to determine the quality ... Read More
Analysis of Multiconductor Quasi-TEM Transmission Lines and Multimode Waveguides

A Biological Gear in the Human Middle Ear
To support high frequency transmission, the mammalian middle ear construction is unique. The middle ear bones are connected through two mobile joints, the malleus-incus joint (MIJ) and the incudostapedial joint (ISJ). These synovial joints, consisting of joint capsule and synovial fluid ... Read More
