COMSOL assistance for the modeling of cellular microsystems

چکیده

The developments of microsystems for biotechnology have been fast in the last few years, and no sign of slowing down is observed. It has begun with lab-on-chip for genomics, especially for the recognition of DNA sequences, followed by protein reactors and immunoassays, and today the emphasis is on cellomics. Cell-chips are design to monitor the behavior of cells, individually or as a group, and to estimate parameters such as cell signals, cell response to drugs, and cellular differentiation. In this paper, we present some examples of cell manipulation in chips—which is often called cellular biomicrofluidics [1]—and cell-chips, and show how their functioning and numerical simulation and COMSOL in particular can contribute to their design.

Evaluate The Behavior of PIN infrared detector via COMSOL software

Infrared detectors can be used for a variety of applications such as: using in fiber-optic communications. Conventional technology for IR detectors is using p-i-n structure based on GaAs compound. This paper reports on the design and modeling of an IR detector using a p-i-n GaAs structure. Comsol software is used to simulate the model and the detector is discussed for terminal current, dopant p...

2D inversion of gravity data in bedrock identification (case study: a part of Qotrum plain in Yazd province)

Introduction The gravity method measures the vertical component of the acceleration at the Earth’s surface. The earth’s gravity field is affected by the density of different rocks and structures. Therefore, this method can be used in mineral exploration or studying the subsurface cavities and structures such as bedrocks, channels, and dikes. Inverse modeling is useful in understanding the p...

Mathematical Modeling of Carbon Dioxide Removal from the CO2/CH4 Gas Mixture Using Amines and Blend of Amines in Polypropylene: A Comparison between Hollow Fiber Membrane Contactor and Other Membranes

In this work, a mathematical model is established to describe the removal of CO2 from gaseous mixtures including CH4 and CO2 in a polypropylene hollow fiber membrane contactor in the presence of conventional absorbents such as monoethanolamine (MEA), methyldiethanolamine (MDEA), and a blend of them. Modeling was performed in axial and radial directions under the fully-wet condition for counterc...
