How to Import an ECAD Geometry for Printed Circuit Board Design
We demonstrate how to import an ECAD geometry into COMSOL Multiphysics® for the design of a printed circuit board. The example features an actual PCB geometry from a company in the industry.

Studying Stress in Threaded Pipe Fitting Designs from CAD Assemblies
Threaded pipes are durable, reliable, and resistant to damage from heat and stress. You can combine a CAD assembly of a threaded pipe with a COMSOL Multiphysics® analysis to study its design.

Analyzing the Mechanical Performance of a Tricycle Frame Design
Tricycles have 3 wheels and countless uses due to their extra support and load capacity. Design a tricycle that meets safety requirements by analyzing its mechanical performance.

Designing a Sensor Package for a High-G Accelerometer via Simulation
To design a piezoresistive sensor package for a high-G accelerometer, researchers turned to multiphysics analysis. They then verified the simulation results with experimental data.

How to Analyze Beam Sections Using the Beam Section Calculator
Simulation applications can be used as utility tools to compute the properties and parameters of a component or device. In this example, the application analyzes beam section geometries.

How to Analyze Your SOLIDWORKS® Designs with an App
Combining the power of a CAD design tool with a simulation app in the same modeling environment enables the simulation to work with both in synchronicity. Learn how to do so here.
