Do Hybrid and Electric Vehicles Have the Pulling Power?
Designers of hybrid and electric vehicles need to have a good understanding of how the car’s lithium-ion battery operates to ensure both performance and safety.
Phase Decomposition Analysis of Loudspeaker Vibrations
A guest blogger from Dynaudio A/S discusses using COMSOL Multiphysics® to perform a phase decomposition analysis of the vibrations in a loudspeaker.
Evaluating a UHF RFID Tag Design with Simulation
Did you know that ultrahigh-frequency (UHF) RFID tags have a wider range than other types of RFID tags? This is why they are often used to identify animals.
Implementing the Weak Form with a COMSOL App
First we implement the weak form equation and examine its matrices. Then we create a simulation app that displays all relevant matrices at once, arranged logically on one screen.
What to Expect from COMSOL Multiphysics Version 5.1
COMSOL Multiphysics® version 5.1 introduced 20 demo apps and many new features and functionality updates to numerous products. Get an overview of what’s new here.
Which Module Should I Choose for Working with My CAD Data?
We go over which add-on module or LiveLink™ interfacing product is best for your modeling scenarios involving CAD data. Get a comprehensive overview here.
