Hybrid Parallel Computing Speeds Up Physics Simulations
Remember 20 years ago, when the TOP500 list was dominated by vector processing supercomputers equipped with up to a thousand processing units? Let’s take a walk through history to the future.
Multiphysics Analysis of Advanced Materials: Ceramic Matrix Composites
A guest blogger from AltaSim Technologies discusses ceramic matrix composites and how to accurately analyze the production of such an advanced material.
Modeling Electromagnetic Waves and Periodic Structures
Oftentimes, it is of interest to model an EM wave (light, microwaves) incident upon periodic structures, such as diffraction gratings, metamaterials, and frequency selective surfaces.
Modeling PSU Cooling with COMSOL
A forced convection cooling system, such as a PSU, is used for removing excess heat produced by electrical computer components. You can model this device in COMSOL Multiphysics®.
Solving Algebraic Field Equations
COMSOL Multiphysics® is commonly used to solve PDEs, ODEs, and initial value problems. However, did you know that you can also solve algebraic and even transcendental equations?
New Technology Advancements for Indoor Navigation
Global position systems, more commonly known as GPS, make it easy to navigate from place to place. But what about navigating inside an actual building? Indoor navigation makes this possible.
Differentially Pumped Vacuum Systems for Spectroscopic Imaging
X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy is an imaging technique used extensively in R&D to characterize the chemical and electronic properties at the surface of a material. Learn about this technique.
Parameterizing the Dimensions of Imported CAD Files
Learn how to modify an imported geometry with some clever usage of the Deformed Geometry interface in COMSOL Multiphysics®.
Simulating an RF MEMS Switch
An RF MEMS switch is typically made up of a micromechanical bridge or cantilever, a substrate, and an electrode or dielectric layer. You can design such a device using RF simulation.
Conjugate Heat Transfer
Get an introduction to the concept of conjugate heat transfer and see some of its applications and modeling considerations.
Red Blood Cell Separation from a Flow Channel
Lab-on-a-chip technology can be used to separate red blood cell via magnetophoresis — for example, motion induced by magnetic fields. Simulation can be used to optimize such devices.
