Theory of Current Distribution

February 7, 2014

Here, we discuss one of the building blocks that make up hybrid parallel computing, namely shared memory computing, as well as when and how to use shared memory with COMSOL Multiphysics®.

Intro to the What, Why, and How of Shared Memory Computing

February 6, 2014

A couple of weeks ago, we published the first blog post in a Hybrid Modeling series, about hybrid parallel computing and how it helps COMSOL Multiphysics model faster. Today, we are going to briefly discuss one of the building blocks that make up the hybrid version, namely shared memory computing. Before that, we need to consider what it means that an “application is running in parallel”. You will also learn when and how to use shared memory with COMSOL.

Rocket Innovations for Private Space Flight

February 5, 2014

Did you know that up until the 1920s, rockets were powered by solid propellants and oxidizers? Enter the invention of the liquid-fuel rocket. Learn more about innovations in modern rocketry.

Simulating Thermal Performance in Windows

February 4, 2014

Windows must be able to keep heat out during the summer and heat in during the winter in order to keep the inside of a building at a comfortable temperature, a process called thermal insulation.

Computing and Controlling the Volume of a Cavity

February 3, 2014

See a method for modeling enclosed volumes containing incompressible fluids (under the additional assumption that the momentum and energy transfer via the fluid is small) in COMSOL Multiphysics®.

Improving Bioreactor Performance with COMSOL Multiphysics

January 31, 2014

A guest blogger from Continuum Blue gives an overview of what the consultancy can do using simulation for their biomedical engineering clients.

Size Parameters for Free Tetrahedral Meshing in COMSOL Multiphysics

January 30, 2014

COMSOL Multiphysics® has 9 built-in size parameter sets when meshing. In this blog post, we’ll discuss size parameters for 1 of these sets: free tetrahedral meshing.

Overview of Integration Methods in Space and Time

January 29, 2014

Integration is an important mathematical tool for numerical simulations. For example, partial differential equations are usually derived from integral balance equations.
