What Kinds of FSI Problems Can COMSOL Multiphysics Solve?
We discuss the various techniques for modeling fluid–structure interaction (FSI) in the COMSOL® software, as well as highlight the add-on modules you need for these various types of analyses.
Characterizing the Flow and Choosing the Right Interface
No matter the focus of your modeling project, you have probably had to consider fluid flow at some point. Here, we discuss how to characterize the flow and choose the correct CFD interface.
Simulating Kelvin-Helmholtz Instability and Climate Dynamics
Q: What do heated soap bubbles, wavy clouds, and Jupiter’s Great Red Spot have in common? A. An unstable motion called Kelvin-Helmholtz instability.
Buoyancy-Driven μPCR for DNA Amplification
True crime + simulation: The more DNA in a sample, the easier it is to accurately test and identify biomolecules, cells, and even an entire person during forensic investigations.
Modeling PSU Cooling with COMSOL
A forced convection cooling system, such as a PSU, is used for removing excess heat produced by electrical computer components. You can model this device in COMSOL Multiphysics®.
Solving Algebraic Field Equations
COMSOL Multiphysics® is commonly used to solve PDEs, ODEs, and initial value problems. However, did you know that you can also solve algebraic and even transcendental equations?
Simulating Viscous Fingering Using Equation-Based Modeling
A prospective user of COMSOL approached me about modeling viscous fingering, which is an effect seen in porous media flow. He hadn’t found a satisfying solution elsewhere, so he turned to COMSOL. I’d like to share with you some of my insight on how to go from idea to model to simulation by taking a “do-it-yourself approach” and utilizing the equation-based modeling capabilities of COMSOL Multiphysics.
COMSOL Multiphysics Version 4.4 Released Today
You’ve seen glimpses of our new software release at the COMSOL Conference and perhaps engaged in commentary around it in social media. Today marks the official release of COMSOL Multiphysics version 4.4, and you can now learn about the software updates in detail and download it if you are on subscription.
