Veryst assists clients in addressing problems involving transport of species or chemical substances. Our experience includes transdermal drug delivery and permeability of polymer systems. We employ advanced computational methods which allow us to model the complex coupled interactions between solute concentrations and carrier material properties.
Veryst can specify a test program—a standard combination of tests—that captures your material’s response for use with a particular material model in a variety of finite element software packages. We have developed packages for many common constitutive models, but can customize the test plan to any model.
Veryst offers clients consulting services in thermal modeling of both solid and fluid systems, including interactions between these systems. We employ state-of-the-art finite element analysis and computational fluid dynamics methods both to analyze and visualize the thermal profiles within client systems. Our simulation capabilities also include hard-to-solve coupled problems, including the interactions between thermal and structural effects and fluid movements resulting from thermal gradients.
Veryst is pleased to welcome Eric Schmitt, M.S. to its engineering team. Mr. Schmitt is a mechanical engineer who has worked in simulation, prototyping, testing, and product development roles.
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 vari
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.
Veryst Engineering, in collaboration with Nordson EFD, published an article in the 2012 COMSOL News magazine titled "Modeling of Laminar Flow Static Mixers."
"Stress-free Simulation: The Art of Accurate Polymer Modelling" is the title of an article by Veryst's Eric Schmitt and Jorgen Bergstrom. The article appears in the October 2016 issue of Benchmark magazine, published by NAFEMS.
Veryst’s modeling and simulation work was featured in a COMSOL blog that describes how Veryst modeled the way in which a heart valve opens and closes in response to fluid flow, providing insight that can be used to improve the design of artificial heart valves.
Veryst’s modeling and simulation work was featured in a COMSOL blog titled “Preventing Bubble Entrapment in Microfluidic Devices Using Simulation.” The blog describes how Veryst modeled different microchannel geometries and simulated bubble movement, providing insight that can be used to improve the design of microfluidic devices.
COMSOL offers an “inside look” at how Veryst’s engineers collaborate to produce accurate and reliable simulations.
The makers of ADINA software have announced that “in response to customers’ requirements,” ADINA supports the Bergstrom-Boyce and Three-Network viscoelastic material models, saying, “These sophisticated material models allow users to capture complex viscoelastic behaviors of polymeric components.”
Meta Reality Labs (MRL), a subsidiary of Meta (formerly Facebook, Inc.), recently published an article describing their research conducted with support from Veryst's Dr. Alireza Kermani. MRL modeled ultrasound sensor integration into a glasses form factor augmented reality device, using a COMSOL model built by Veryst.
Dr. Jorgen Bergstrom’s book is now available! Mechanics of Solid Polymers: Theory and Computational Modeling explains how solid polymers behave, how they can be experimentally characterized, and how to predict their behavior in different load environments. This comprehensive book reflects the latest advances in the understanding of polymers, and shows that with the right knowledge and tools it is possible to predict accurately the response of ALL polymers.
