Connecting the Dots Between Theory, Model, and App
We explore how the concepts of theory, model, and simulation app connect and relate to each other, using the example of analyzing buckling in a truss tower design.
How to Make Boundary Conditions Conditional in Your Simulation
In some modeling scenarios, you may want to apply a boundary condition to only part of the geometrical boundary or only under certain conditions. Learn how to do so here.
How to Model Solar Concentrators with the Ray Optics Module
Learn how to predict the concentration ratio for an idealized, parabolic solar reflector using Monte Carlo ray tracing in the Ray Optics Module, an add-on to COMSOL Multiphysics®.
Thermal Modeling of the Air Flow Inside and Around Your House
Learn step by step how to set up a thermal model of the airflow in and around a house, including how to implement tabulated meteorological data from the historical ASHRAE database.
Using the New Ray Tracing Algorithm in COMSOL Multiphysics® 5.2a
The ability to trace rays in unmeshed domains, and even release and trace rays outside a geometry, has been available in the Ray Optics Module as of COMSOL Multiphysics® version 5.2a. Learn more.
