This model shows the workflow to define a transfer orbit trajectory with user defined orbit option. The direct solar, albedo, and Earth radiative thermal loads are analyzed during the transfer from low Earth orbit to geostationary orbit. Read More
This example shows how to model the behavior of a thermostat where a delay in its reaction has been implemented. A more detailed description of the phenomenon, and the modeling process, can be seen in the blog post "How to Implement a Delay in Your Thermostat Simulation". Read More
This 3D model example demonstrates the use of the Lead-Acid Battery interface for modeling current distribution in full cell employing a lead-acid battery chemistry. The lead acid battery chemistry uses PbO2 as the positive porous electrode and Pb as the negative porous electrode and ... Read More
Example for a geometry sequence to deduce a shell model from an imported solid CAD file. The model demonstrates how to generate parameters from dimensions of a geometry and how to convert a solid CAD geometry into a shell representation using midsurface and extract Read More
Mechanical precession prevents bicycle pedals from falling off. The model captures this effect using a multibody dynamics simulation together with a contact analysis. A friction coefficient is associated with the contact in order for the model to capture the effect. Read More
This model is used to demonstrate the solution to a classic brainteaser in electromagnetics. A long loop of wire is connected to a source and a receiver, which are placed 1 meter apart. The objective of the model is to compute how long it takes for the receiver to sense when the source ... Read More
This example model simulates the long-path echo of trumpet sounds reflected from a building 500 m away. The echo can only be heard at night because of the acoustic ray refraction in the atmosphere with different temperature profiles. The model is solved using the ray tracing in the ... Read More
This model demonstrates how to solve delay differential equations in the context of modeling a population dynamics problem. To learn more about this model, see our accompanying blog post “Solving Delay Differential Equations to Model…Marmots? ”. Read More
A demultiplexer is a device that directs different frequency bands to different outputs. In this tutorial model, we will design a demultiplexer by performing shape optimization on all initial circular boundaries in a sonic crystal (phononic crystal) configuration. The model uses shape ... Read More
This model presents a way to compute projected area using the Surface-to-Surface Radiation interface of the Heat Transfer Module. By computing illuminated area from a set of directions on a discretized sphere, it is possible to interpolate the projected area onto any angle of incidence. ... Read More
