Coil Optimization of an ICP Reactor

This model shows how shape optimization can be used design the coils of an ICP reactor to obtain plasma uniformity. The reactor in study is a planar ICP with the coils distributed along the radial direction. The Optimization study step is used to find the best coil placement so that the ... Read More

Ion Cyclotron Motion

This model computes the trajectory of an ion in a uniform magnetic field using the Newtonian, Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formulations available in the Mathematical Particle Tracing interface. Read More

Circular Waveguide Filter

A circular waveguide filter is designed using a 2D axisymmetric model. Six annular rings added to the waveguide form circular cavities connected in series, and each cavity cutoff frequency is close to the center frequency of the filter. The simulated S-parameters show a bandpass ... Read More

Electromagnetic Force Calculation Using Virtual Work and Maxwell Stress Tensor

The model compare the electromagnetic force calculated by virtual work and maxwell stress tensor methods on the axial magnetic bearing. The forces is evaluated by studying the effect of a small displacement on the electromagnetic energy of the system. This is done by using the Magnetic ... Read More

Zernike Polynomial Fitting of a Deformed Surface

This tutorial shows how the displacement field of a deformed surface can be fit to a Zernike polynomial basis. The method of linear least-squares fitting is made significantly easier when fitting to an orthonormal basis, such as the Zernike polynomials on a circle. The displacement ... Read More

Generating a Simulation Mesh From Scanned Data

See how to generate a mesh from scanned data via two different workflows. For both examples, the data file is imported in an Interpolation function. In the first workflow, the data is applied on a Grid dataset and a Filter dataset is used to filter out the data to represent the femur. ... Read More

Test Bench Car Interior

Sound is generated by a point source located in the wall of this test bench car interior. The sound pressure level response at a point of measurement is investigated for a range of frequencies and four different mesh resolutions. The model is first solved with the default direct solvers. ... Read More

Polynomial Hyperelastic Model

This model shows how you can implement a user defined hyperelastic material, using the strain density energy function. The model used is a general Mooney–Rivlin hyperelastic material model defined by a polynomial. In this example, you will see two material models based on the defined ... Read More

Ray Release Based on a Plane Electromagnetic Wave

This tutorial shows how to set up a ray release based on the incident electric field at a boundary. First the Electomagnetic Waves, Frequency Domain interface is used to solve for the electric field of a plane wave. Then rays are released with initial intensity and polarization matching ...
