A numerical model of a human body with an intramedullary nail in the femur was built to evaluate the effects of the implant on the current density distribution in extremely low frequency electric and magnetic fields. The intramedullary nail was chosen because it is one of the longest high conductive implants used in the human body. As such it is expected to alter the electric and magnetic field...

in this paper, numerical investigation of a flat passive micromixer with heterogeneous surface properties that the flow through it, is driven by the electroosmotic flow have been presented. the governing equations, which consist of a laplace equation for the distribution of external electric potential, a poisson equation for the distribution of electric double layer potential, modified navier-s...

abstract study of turbidity current hydrodynamics plays an important role in increasing the economical life of dams though reduction in sediment accumulation. in the present experimental study, the effect of entrance densimetric froude number of turbidity current in sub and super critical conditions (fr =0.6-3.5) have been tested through effect of channel slope and change related to opening hei...

A new three-component measured equation of invariance (MEI) boundary condition is developed and applied to the hybrid edge/nodal vector finite element method. The electric field distribution on the cross section of various lossy transmission lines is calculated. The propagation constant of a lossy transmission line with coated conductor strip is also calculated. The three-component MEI boundary...

A numerical technique is proposed for determining the distributions of electric field and charge density in the case of a positive corona discharge in gas in the point–plane geometry. This technique is based on the boundary and finite elements methods for obtaining the harmonic and space charge components of the electric field, respectively, and on the method of characteristics to determine the...

Traditional macro and micro-electroporation devices utilize facing electrodes, which generate electric fields inversely proportional to their separation distance. Although the separation distances in micro-electroporation devices are significantly smaller than those in macro-electroporation devices, they are limited by cell size. Because of this, significant potential differences are required t...
