The FT Technologies Multiphysics Research Team advanced its commitment to innovation by participating once again in the COMSOL Conference, which took place in Amsterdam, Netherlands, last month. This year, Elisabetta Merico, Multiphysics Engineer, presented the team’s latest research on “Convected Acoustic Physics Interfaces for Acoustic Resonance Technology”.
This research showcased the development and optimisation of a comprehensive suite of models leveraging both the Linearised Potential Flow (LPF) and Linearised Navier-Stokes (LNS) interfaces within COMSOL Multiphysics. These models are purpose-built for a range of application needs, from rapid, efficient predictions to high-fidelity simulations for in-depth analysis. A key focus was on the integration of machine learning into the simulation workflow, demonstrating how these advanced techniques can accelerate simulation cycles, enabling faster prototyping and continuous innovation in FT’s acoustic sensor technology.
This forward-thinking strategy further underscores FT Technologies’ commitment to developing high-performance sensing solutions, ensuring that our acoustic resonance sensors continue to set the benchmark for global industry standards. By embracing COMSOL’s latest advancements in GPU-based computation, we anticipate even greater acceleration of our simulation processes, unlocking new levels of efficiency and enabling faster progress in our research. The collaborative environment and exchange of expertise at the conference empower the FT research and development team to remain at the cutting edge of acoustics and simulation, driving the evolution of next-generation sensor technology.

Elisabetta Merico, upon return from the conference, commented:
“It was truly exciting to take part in the COMSOL Conference for the second year in a row. I thoroughly enjoyed reconnecting with familiar faces from last year in Florence and meeting new colleagues who share a passion for acoustics and simulation. The energy and collaborative spirit of the event made it a fantastic experience, and I look forward to building on these connections in the future.”
