This tutorial analyzes the case of elastic contact between a cylinder and a flat plate, with a uniformly distributed load on the top of the cylinder. Analytical expressions are available for the width of the contact region, and the maximum compressive and tensile stresses (Roark and Young).

Electrokinetic injection is an alternate method of loading DNA sample onto the capillary separation matrix for capillary electrophoresis compared to hydrodynamic or manual loading.This transfer is directly dependent on the magnitude and duration of voltage applied across the capillaries. This tutorial investigates the electrokinetic injection and separation of analytes in a cross channel under the influence of an electric field.

This simulation models a two-dimensional cross channel geometry connecting four sample reservoirs. The process considered is electroosmotic driven flow from reservoir 1 to reservoir 2. The model examines the coupled fluid flow and electrostatic field at steady state. Electroosmotic flows are being considered for possible use in a number of biomedical applications involving flow in flow channels such as needless blood sampling for glucose testing.

The actuation characteristics of a torsion micromirror are investigated using CFD-ACE+.

This tutorial describes the steps for handling desired patches on a bounding box.

The geometry to be created in this tutorial is a generic semiconductor reactor. It has one large inlet on the top, a small outlet port and a side port. Four blocks or domains are used in this geometry. The central portion under the large inlet is a single block with a C topology and a polar singularity. A second C topology block surrounds this block. The side port and outlet pipe are filled with the final two blocks of H topology.

The objective of this tutorial is to find the optimum bend radius R such that the pressure drop in the pipe is minimum for given a two-dimensional pipe with fixed velocity inlet.

This tutorial describes the steps for generating a multiple domain cartesian grid with box domain specification and how to assign different grid resolutions for each domain.

The objective of this tutorial is to create structured and unstructured grids for a generic bio-sensor model with the ultimate aim of running a binding-kinetics simulation for it. The grid-generation proceeds from the geometry creation stage which is covered in this tutorial.
