NASA combines thermal modeling and experimental testing to find the best compressor design for the system that keeps the air breathable at the International Space Station. Per saperne di più
Semiconductor manufacturing and particle physics research depend on high-vacuum or ultra-high-vacuum (HV/UHV) conditions. To help develop a better ionization gauge for measuring pressure in HV/UHV environments, INFICON of Liechtenstein used multiphysics modeling to refine their design. Per saperne di più
Decaying seashells can release calcium carbonates, which help neutralize carbon dioxide in seawater. But ocean acidification threatens the shell formation process. Olivier Sulpis of Utrecht University has developed a novel reactive-transport model of deep-sea galvanization processes. Per saperne di più
The Northeast Greenland Ice Stream’s discharge of ice into the ocean has been accelerating. To help forecast future discharge, researchers at the Alfred Wegener Institute have developed an improved viscoelastic model to capture forces that contribute to glacial flow. Per saperne di più
To design three-phase inverters and DC link capacitors, two integral components of electric vehicle drivetrains, Bosch turned to thermal and EM simulation. Compared to previous designs, the optimized inverters have a 6% greater range and 200% jump in power density. Per saperne di più
