Treating Time as a Space Dimension
In this blog post, explore a particularly important approach to solving the time-periodic steady state of a system that can be described by a set of algebraic equations.
Using Differential Inductance and Coils in COMSOL Multiphysics®
Differential inductances are useful for building simplified lumped models. Explore 4 examples of how to extract differential inductance in COMSOL Multiphysics® here.
Learning from the Two-Capacitor Paradox: Do Capacitance and Inductance Exist?
What is the two-capacitor paradox? How can it be resolved with modeling and simulation? Do capacitance and inductance exist? Get answers here.
Understanding Higher-Order Diffraction
Explore how to use the Ewald sphere to study diffraction from planar periodic structures. (Interact directly with the model to get the full picture!)
Modeling Dispersion in an Electric Currents Model
As of COMSOL Multiphysics® version 6.2, new electrical dispersion modeling capabilities are available. This functionality is especially important for modeling insulators and living tissues.
Modeling Periodic Electric Signals and Their Thermal Effects
Electrical pulse trains can be applied to human tissue for electroporation and thermal ablation. Learn how to model such signals via a Fourier transform approach.
