Article in NASA Software Tech Briefs

Veryst Engineering published an article in the September 2013 issue of NASA Software Tech Briefs titled "Conjugate Thermal Analysis of a Generic LED Light Bulb."  The article illustrates how a coupled thermal CFD (computational fluid dynamics) analysis is used to predict the temperature variation and airflow around an LED bulb.  Thermal management is a challenge in the design of compact LEDs since the higher power density results in high temperatures that negate the other benefits of LEDs.  This multiphysics modeling approach is essential for exploring a wide range of design

Article in the 2012 COMSOL News magazine

Veryst Engineering, in collaboration with Nordson EFD, published an article in the 2012 COMSOL News magazine titled "Modeling of Laminar Flow Static Mixers." 

Interview with Veryst Principal on how to "Succeed as an engineering consultant"

Dr. Stuart Brown provided "Tips to Succeed as an Engineering Consultant" in an ASME interview. Dr. Brown says "you have to be bipolar" to be successful, explaining that "you have to be an expert, and then have to be able to do everything else."

Article in R&D Magazine features Veryst

Dr. Jorgen Bergstrom was featured in an R&D Magazine article titled “The Indispensable Biomaterial.” Silicone elastomers have grown in importance to the medical device industry, yet their design is particularly challenging given their physical complexity. Dr. Bergstrom discusses how nonlinear finite element analysis and advanced material are facilitating the design process.

Participation in ASTM Medical Device Committee

Dr. Stuart Brown attended the ASTM Medical Device Committee (F04) meeting in Tampa, Florida, November 16-17, 2011. He participated in subcommittee meetings involved in standard development on absorbable polymers, PEEK, tissue-engineering medical products (TEMPS) and orthopaedic devices.

Patents issued to Stuart Brown

Stuart Brown, Ph.D. was issued Patent 7,740,595 titled "Tissue and Fluid Sampling Device.”   This patent describes a biopsy needle with multiple sampling ports, enabling both multiple samples in a single procedure and the ability to map tissue samples spatially during a biopsy.

Conference presentations

Dr. Jorgen Bergstrom presented papers on a variety of topics at conferences around the world in 2009 and 2010.

Publication: Veryst develops advanced constitutive model for UHMWPE

Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) is used extensively in biomedical devices due to its mechanical properties, including high impact and wear resistance. Veryst developed an advanced thermomechanical constitutive model for UHWMPE where the microstructure of the material is represented using three structural domains that capture the experimentally-observed, nonlinear, time- and temperature-dependent response at small and large strains.
