Compressibility Options and Buoyancy Forces for Flow Simulations
Here, we cover the various formulations for fluid flow equations in COMSOL Multiphysics® and when it’s best to use each option.
How to Build Gear Geometries in the Multibody Dynamics Module
You can use the built-in, highly parameterized gear parts in the Part Library to build a wide range of parallel and planetary gear trains for analysis in the COMSOL® software. Learn how here.
Optimizing the Hydration Operation in the Thermal Processing of Dates
To optimize the hydration process for dates, a team of researchers turned to experimental studies and simulation analyses. Learn more here.
Design an App to Efficiently Model the Flash Method Procedure
The flash method is widely used to measure the thermal conductivity of materials. The Flash Method demo app can be used to perform a numerical simulation of the flash method procedure.
How to Model Contact Fatigue in COMSOL Multiphysics®
Contact fatigue occurs when two parts in contact experience a time-dependent contact pressure. Learn how to model this structural phenomenon in COMSOL Multiphysics®.
Evaluating Microphones and Transducers with Simulation
Research teams at Brüel & Kjær, an industry leader in sound and vibration measurement, use multiphysics simulation to model their microphone and transducer designs. Read the full story.
How to Model Adhesion and Decohesion in COMSOL Multiphysics
Did you know you can simulate objects that stick together once they come in contact (adhesion) as well as those that pull apart (decohesion), including full cohesive-zone modeling?
Evaluating an Insulin Micropump Design for Treating Diabetes
Researchers from the University of Ontario Institute of Technology used simulation to develop a MEMS-based micropump that could administer insulin injections in a safe and painless way.
