Theoretical investigation on polar dielectric with large electrocaloric effect as cooling devices

Polar dielectric based cooling devices are
modeled as a system with two degrees of freedom and represented by either an
entropy-temperature or electric displacement-electric field plane. A typical
thermodynamic energy cyclic path is proposed for polar dielectric as cooling
devices to experience. With the influence of temperature taken into
consideration, the free energy of a thermal electrical coupling system of polar
dielectrics is formulated, and the variation of temperature and entropy, the
absorption of heat, and the work under different electric fields are calculated
for BaTiO3, Pb(ZrxTi1-x)O3, P(VDF-TrFE), and water. And the simulation results
obtained agree well with the recently published experimental data [B. Neese, et

Free FEM-pack development for everybody

Dear All! If it will be interesting
for you please look at my FEM-pack FASTRAN. This software was developed for
dynamic analysis of the thin-walled shell-type structures and includes:
preprocessor (only for view early-developed FEM-models), processor (fast sparse
solver) and postprocessor (for view calculation results). Your opinion will be
very interesting for me.

Are there some examples about membrane large deformation simulation used FEAP?

I try to use FEAP7.4 to simulate membrane large deformation. But there are some difficulties. I want to learn from some examples.
