Hi,
My name is Fernanda. I have made a simulation where I apply a DC voltage to particular electrodes. In my real experiment, I am switching the voltage of the electrodes every 1ms. I have done the simulation in DC for the two cases; however, I would like to do it with time dependent. I don't know how to do. I would appreciate if you can help me.

Hi

so you say you ave managed to solve it in stationary, then you have two choices for time dependent:

Either you want to look at a transient so you express your "force" values with a time dependent function and you use a transient solver.

Or you you are in a constant frequency oscillation scheme, then you can use the frequency domain solver that does a harmonic development (à la Fourier if you want) and you define the amplitude and the frequency (the latter in the solver settings) You might also efine a frequency range start, step,stop) to get a fequency response.

Sorry I do not have COMSOL with my just now cannot look up your model

Good luck
