Multiphysics computation of electrified tissue

On September 25, 2023 from 17:30 to 19:30 at the Mossa Hall (S2b) of the Santa Chiara Complex will be held the lecture Multiphysics computation of electrified tissue by Bilen Emek Abali (Uppsala University).

Abstract: Electrically induced tissue damage is a coupled phenomenon in multiphysics. Conducting electricity produces heat and this increases the temperature. Electromagnetism, thermomechanics, and damage modeling creates a set of coupled and nonlinear field equations, by solving them with the aid of the finite element method, we compute a realistic example where the tissue absorbs the electric energy, converts to heat, and gets burnt due to the excessive temperature increase.

Short bio: After studying and working at the universities in Istanbul, Munich, Berlin, Berkeley, and Ghent, B. E. Abali joined the faculty at Uppsala University in Sweden. His first research monograph in Springer is entitled as Computational Reality, presenting thermodynamical derivation of coupled phenomena involving thermomechanics with electromagnetism in solids and fluids as well as their computation via the finite element method with the aid of open-source codes developed under the FEniCS project.
