hello everyone.
i'm a newbie on comsol.
just would like to ask if anyone knows where i could find physics on the hygro swelling component of COMSOL.
i have tried already to run thermo induced stress simulation but to no avail.
i appreciate much of your help.
thanks.

There's published work on that topic. See for instance: www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CB4QFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.comsol.com%2Fpapers%2F2502%2Fdownload%2FFretz.pdf&ei=05iSUIOZDY-70AH8_YHYDA&usg=AFQjCNFwWRKSzWf3FpWCsZr8bpSy3W-fUg

Since version 5.1, hygroscopic swelling has been available right out of the box in the Structural Mechanics Module and in the MEMS Module.
Here is a blog post on this interesting feature:
