The performance of magneto-impedance sensors to detect the presence and concentration of magnetic nanoparticles is investigated, using finite element calculations to directly solve Maxwell’s equations. In the case of superparamagnetic particles that are not sufficiently magnetized by an external field, it is assumed that the sensitivity of the magneto-impedance sensor to the presence of magnetic nanoparticles comes from the influence of their magnetic permeability on the sensor impedance, and not from the stray magnetic field that the particles produce. The results obtained not only justify this hypothesis, but also provide an explanation for the discrepancies found in the literature about the response of magneto-impedance sensors to the presence of magnetic nanoparticles, where some authors report an increasing magneto-impedance signal when the concentration of magnetic nanoparticles is increased, while others report a decreasing tendency. Additionally, it is demonstrated that sensors with lower magneto-impedance response display larger sensitivities to the presence of magnetic nanoparticles, indicating that the use of plain, nonmagnetic conductors as sensing materials can be beneficial, at least in the case of superparamagnetic particles insufficiently magnetized in an external magnetic field.

Basic Statements of Research and Magnetic Field of Axial Excitation Inductor GeneratorIn this work the main features of axial excitation inductor generators are described. Mathematical simulation of a magnetic field is realized by using the finite element method. The objective of this work is to elucidate how single elements shape, geometric dimensions and magnetic saturation of magnetic system affect the main characteristics of the field (magnetic induction, magnetic flux linkage). The main directions of a magnetic system optimization are specified.

The paper presents research on magnetic field exciters dedicated to testing magnetocaloric materials (MCMs) as well as used in the design process of magnetic refrigeration systems. An important element of the proposed test stand is the system of magnetic field excitation. It should provide a homogeneous magnetic field with a controllable value of its intensity in the MCM testing region. Several concepts of a magnetic circuit when designing the field exciters have been proposed and evaluated. In the MCM testing region of the proposed exciters, the magnetic field is controlled by changing the structure of the magnetic circuit. A precise 3D field model of electromagnetic phenomena has been developed in the professional finite element method (FEM) package and used to design and analyze the exciters. The obtained results of the calculations of the magnetic field distribution in the working area were compared with the results of the measurements carried out on the exciter prototype. The conclusions resulting from the conducted research are presented and discussed.

The paper reported a study on an effect of the point charge of the bio-interface of a nanowire field biosensor on the conductance of the nanowire, through finite element calculations using COMSOL Multiphysics. A model with 5 layers starting with silicon nanowire of radius 10nm surrounded by a 2-nm oxide layer, and the oxide layer were surrounded by a 5 nm thick functional layer and 2 points charge were considered for this study and last layer is for electrolyte. The results shows that is different voltages with points change is that effected on the conductance of nanowire that is clear from different of potential distribution of point charge.

Classical beam models do not account for partial restraint of anticlastic bending and are therefore inherently inaccurate. This article proposes a modification of the exact Bernoulli–Euler equation which allows for an exact prediction of the beam's deflection without the need of two-dimensional finite element calculations. This approach offers a substantial reduction in the computational effort, especially when coupled with a fast-solving schema like the circle-arc method. Besides the description of the new method and its validation, this article offers an insight into the somewhat disregarded topic of anticlastic bending by a short review of the published theories and a selection of representative numerical results.

Non-linear finite element calculations are indispensable when important information of the material response under load of a rubber component is desired. Although the material characterization of a rubber component is a demanding engineering task, the changing contact range between the parts and the incompressibility behaviour of the rubber further increase the complexity of the investigations. In this paper the effects of the choice of the numerical material parameters (e.g. bulk modulus) are examined with regard to numerical stability, mesh density and calculation accuracy. As an example, a rubber spring is chosen where contact problem is also handled.
