Understand the Dynamics of the FitzHugh-Nagumo Model with an App
In 1961, R. Fitzhugh and J. Nagumo proposed a model for emulating the current signal observed in a living organism’s excitable cells. This became known as the FitzHugh–Nagumo model.
Integrals with Moving Limits and Solving Integro-Differential Equations
Learn how to analyze spatial integrals over variable limits, whether they are prescribed explicitly or defined implicitly. (Part 2 of 2)
Improved Capabilities for Meshing with Tetrahedral Elements
In this blog post, we guide you through the process of generating a tetrahedral mesh for your COMSOL Multiphysics® models.
Sampling from Phase Space Distributions in 3D Charged Particle Beams
Learn how to sample the initial positions and velocities of 3D beam particles from the transverse phase space distribution. Part 3 of a series on modeling charged particle beams.
Understanding the Paraxial Gaussian Beam Formula
The paraxial Gaussian beam formula can be used to describe the Gaussian beam. We go over the theory behind this mathematical formula, as well as its limitations.
Phase Space Distributions and Emittance in 2D Charged Particle Beams
We discuss the concepts of phase space and emittance as they apply to the release of ions or electrons in beams. Part 2 of a series on phase space distributions in beam physics.
Sampling Random Numbers from Probability Distribution Functions
Get a comprehensive background on probability distribution functions and the different ways you can sample random numbers from them in COMSOL Multiphysics®. Part 1 of a series on beam physics.
