Effect of Porosity on the Thermo-Mechanical Behavior of Friction-Stir-Welded Spark-Plasma-Sintered Aluminum Matrix Composites with Bimodal Micro- and Nano-Sized Reinforcing Al2O3 Particles
PublicationThe thermo-mechanical behavior of nanosized Al2O3 particles reinforcing aluminum was analyzed in the present paper. The material was prepared by spark plasma sintering and friction stir welding. The thermal stresses affecting the composite behavior during welding were modeled through COMSOL MultiPhysics, and the results were validated by the analyses of the composites’ mechanical properties. The spark-plasma-sintered materials...

Optymalizacja mikrofalowego generatora plazmy o strukturze współosiowej zasilanego falowodem
PublicationW niniejszym artykule przedstawiono wyniki optymalizacji transferu energii w mikrofalowym generatorze plazmy o strukturze współosiowej zasilanym falowodem WR 340. Do obliczeń posłużono się programem Comsol Multiphysics. Dla zwartego odcinka linii współosiowej o optymalnej długości 52 mm, minimalny stosunek mocy fali odbitej do mocy fali padającej mierzony w płaszczyźnie wejściowej prezentowanego generatora plazmy zmniejszył się...

Optymalizacja transferu energii w mikrofalowym module plazmowym o strukturze współosiowej zasilanym falowodem WR 340
PublicationMikrofalowy moduł plazmowy (MMP) służy do produkcji wodoru poprzez reforming węglowodorów. W pracy przedstawiono wyniki optymalizacji transferu energii w MMP o strukturze współosiowej zasilanym falowodem WR 340. W omawianym MMP wyładowanie mikrofalowe powstaje pod ciśnieniem atmosferycznym, a częstotliwość pracy wynosi 2,45GHz. Optymalizacja została przeprowadzona numerycznie za pomocą programu Comsol. Kryteria optymalizacji zostały...

Data Compression in Ultrasonic Network Communication via Sparse Signal Processing
PublicationThis document presents the approach of using compressed sensing in signal encoding and information transferring within a guided wave sensor network, comprised of specially designed frequency steerable acoustic transducers (FSATs). Wave propagation in a damaged plate was simulated using commercial FEM-based software COMSOL. Guided waves were excited by means of FSATs, characterized by the special shape of its electrodes, and modeled...

Electromagnetic Control and Dynamics of Generalized Burgers’ Nanoliquid Flow Containing Motile Microorganisms with Cattaneo–Christov Relations: Galerkin Finite Element Mechanism
PublicationIn our research work, we have developed a model describing the characteristics of the bio-convection and moving microorganisms in the flows of a magnetized generalized Burgers’ nanoliquid with Fourier’s and Fick’s laws in a stretchable sheet. Considerations have been made to Cattaneo–Christov mass and heat diffusion theory. According to the Cattaneo–Christov relation, the Buongiorno phenomenon for the motion of a nanoliquid in...

Comparative analysis of the flow control over a circular cylinder with detached flexible and rigid splitter plates
PublicationA comparative study is performed on a circular cylinder with both flexible and rigid splitter plates (SPs). This study has the novelty of using single and dual detached SPs located downstream of the cylinder. The dimensionless gap distance between the first splitter plate and the cylinder as well as the distance between the SPs are varied. The strain of flexible SPs can be used for energy harvesting from the flow. Therefore, a...

Temperature Evolution, Material Flow, and Resulting Mechanical Properties as a Function of Tool Geometry during Friction Stir Welding of AA6082
PublicationThe friction stir welding process was simulated for joining AA6082 aluminum alloy with the use of the computational fluid dynamics method. Two different tool geometries were used—a tapered cylindrical pin (simple pin) and a hexagonal pin with grooves (complex pin). The analysis of the simulations performed was discussed in terms of temperature evolution during the process, total heat input, residual stresses and material flow....
