Defining Curvilinear Coordinates for Anisotropic Materials
Consider a carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer with woven fibers embedded in an epoxy matrix. How can you express the anisotropy by referring to the well-known Cartesian coordinate system?
Buckling, When Structures Suddenly Collapse
The easiest way to approach a buckling problem — like a bridge collapse or crushed soda can — is by performing a linearized buckling analysis. See how to do so in COMSOL Multiphysics® here >>
Plotting Spatial Derivatives of the Magnetic Field
Radiology, magnetophoresis, particle accelerators, and geophysics are all areas where it is useful to compute the spatial derivative of the magnetic field or magnetic flux density.
How to Model Thermoviscous Acoustics in COMSOL Multiphysics
Want to solve your acoustics model for acoustic pressure, velocity, or temperature variation? Enter the Thermoviscous Acoustics interface, which offers a simple and accurate way.
Theory of Thermoviscous Acoustics: Thermal and Viscous Losses
Here’s your comprehensive introduction to thermoviscous acoustics. Topics covered include theory, physics, boundary layers, bulk losses, attenuation, and narrow region acoustics.
Buoyancy-Driven μPCR for DNA Amplification
True crime + simulation: The more DNA in a sample, the easier it is to accurately test and identify biomolecules, cells, and even an entire person during forensic investigations.
Optimizing Heater Power for Thermal Processing
We demonstrate a useful approach for process control modeling and optimization using COMSOL Multiphysics® and the Optimization Module.
Piezoelectric Materials: Crystal Orientation and Poling Direction
