This theoretical study describes the optical multilayer structure models leading to investigate Surface Plasmon Polariton (SPP) to an extern applied magnetic field at visible wavelenght using a 3D-FEM based on Comsol Multiphysics software. The layered structures include the amorphous silicon c-Si octahedral nanocrystals on the interface SiO2/dielectric were investigated to enhance the SPP inten...

The paper presents an analytical method for the determination of the magnetic force produced by a mini – actuator with permanent magnets. The results are compared with those obtained by performing a numerical field analysis with COMSOL Multiphysics, showing a very good agreement. The study reveals that the actuator has two equilibrium points, one of which is stable and the other one unstable.

Organogenesis is a tightly regulated process that has been studied experimentally for decades. We are developing mechanistic models for the morphogenesis of limbs, lungs, and kidneys with a view to integrate available knowledge and to better understand the underlying regulatory logic. In our previous paper on simulating organogenesis in COMSOL (German et al COMSOL Conf Procedings 2011) we discu...
