Using General Extrusion Operators to Model Periodic Structures

August 11, 2015

If your multiphysics model includes a periodic solution to one physics and nonperiodic solutions to other physics of interest, you can exploit the periodicity to reduce computational requirements!

Computing Design Sensitivities in COMSOL Multiphysics

August 5, 2015

You can compute design sensitivities via the core functionality of COMSOL Multiphysics®. We show you how with a parallel plate capacitor example.

Should We Model Graphene as a 2D Sheet or Thin 3D Volume?

August 4, 2015

Graphene is a 2D sheet of carbon atoms that is 1 atomic layer thick. However, is graphene actually 2D or is it just incredibly thin, like a very fine piece of paper? How should it be modeled?

How to Model Magnetic Bearings in COMSOL Multiphysics®

July 28, 2015

Get an in-depth introduction to the different types of magnetic bearings and then learn how to compute their magnetic force, torque, magnetic stiffness, and more.

Verify Simulations with the Method of Manufactured Solutions

July 27, 2015

The Method of Manufactured Solutions involves assuming a solution, obtaining source terms, solving the problem, and comparing the results with the assumed solution. Use it to verify your models.

Tracking Material Damage with the Previous Solution Operator

July 21, 2015

We demonstrate how to use the Previous Solution operator to track material damage in your simulation, using an example of “baking off” of a thin coating on a wafer heated by a laser.

Studying Impedance to Analyze the Li-Ion Battery with an App

July 14, 2015

Check out the Lithium-Ion Battery Impedance demo app, which is an example of how apps can be used to interpret the impedance of specific lithium-ion battery designs — with minimal effort!

Building an IR Microscope App at ZINK Imaging

July 9, 2015

A guest blogger from ZINK Imaging shows off a simulation app he built from a simple thermal model of an IR microscope. Learn more and see his step-by-step process for creating an app.
