Modeling Parts Without Constraints in Your Structural Analyses

January 7, 2021

When building a solid mechanics model, there may be parts with prescribed loads but no constraints that can be reasonably applied. Learn different approaches and considerations for this scenario.

How to Run COMSOL Multiphysics® from the Command Line

December 9, 2020

Did you know that you can run repeated variations of the same COMSOL Multiphysics® model file from the command line — and automatically export data?

Accelerating Model Convergence with Symbolic Differentiation

October 29, 2020

Whenever you set up and solve a nonlinear problem in COMSOL Multiphysics, a symbolic differentiation engine is automatically used to ensure high robustness and accelerate model convergence.

Equation-Based Modeling with a Space-Time Discretization

September 24, 2020

In COMSOL Multiphysics®, almost any expression in a computational model can be modified. For example, using a space-time discretization can make optimization problems easy and fast to implement.

September 15, 2020

Get an overview of the course on Joule heating and thermal expansion. Plus, access supporting material.

Modeling a Scatterer Near an Optical Waveguide

August 25, 2020

In the real world, most structures are more complex than a 2D dielectric slab. However, if you’re designing photonic structures, you can learn a lot about wave optics modeling from this example.

Modeling Waveguides that Support Multiple Modes 

August 12, 2020

2 ways you can model a waveguide that supports multiple modes: add a PML that can be used to absorb any modes, or explicitly add ports for each possible mode.

Computational Electromagnetics Modeling: Which Module to Use?

July 28, 2020

If you work with a particular electromagnetic device or application area, you might be wondering which module in the COMSOL product suite is right for you. Keep reading for a comprehensive intro.
