Studying Transient Heat Transfer in a Fin Design with an App
A guest blogger and author presents a simulation app that he designed to study transient heat transfer in a nonprismatic fin.
Control Current and Voltage Sources with the AC/DC Module
Did you know that you can use the Terminal boundary condition to dynamically switch between excitation types during a transient simulation? This is useful for modeling power supply, for example.
Multiphysics Simulation Provides Accurate Muffler Designs
A guest blogger from Lightness by Design, a COMSOL Certified Consultant, shares how multiphysics simulation provides accurate results when designing automotive mufflers.
Newtecnic Creates Better Building Façades with Simulation
Engineers at Newtecnic use COMSOL Multiphysics® to balance elements such as stability, efficiency, and comfort when creating building façades that are both eye-catching and functional.
Simulation Improves Range of Motion in Piezoelectric Actuators
We highlight 1.) some of the fundamental elements of piezoelectric theory and basic simulations and 2.) a novel design for improving the range of motion for piezoelectric actuators.
Efficiently Study Noise Distribution in a House with an App
Simulation apps can be used by those with little knowledge of simulation to run their own acoustics analyses. Learn about one example, the One-Family House Acoustics Analyzer, here.
Reaching New Heights in Pole Vaulting: A Multibody Analysis
We perform a multibody dynamics analysis of the different phases of pole vaulting using COMSOL Multiphysics®.
Design Safe Wearable Technology with Heat Transfer Modeling
Wearable technology is more than just fitness-tracking bracelets and smartwatches. It is important to consider heat transfer when designing wearables that are safe for consumer use.
