2D Axisymmetric Model of a Conical Horn Antenna
Did you know that you can save time setting up your electromagnetics models by taking advantage of axisymmetry? We discuss the benefits of this approach using a conical horn antenna example.
The Hygroscopic Swelling Effect
If you put a quarter cup of rice in a pot of water, you end up with half a cup of rice. This isn’t magic — it’s simply hygroscopic swelling at work. Learn more about this phenomenon.
Eat First, Research Later: Exploring the Role of Eggs in Baking
Leavening, binding, moistening: 3 of the roles eggs typically play in baking. Learn more about the science behind baking with eggs, and how vegan baked goods compare, on the blog.
Modeling Lithium-Ion Batteries for Quality and Safety Assurance
Intertek Semko AB assesses more than 20,000 lithium-ion batteries per year. Learn about how they use COMSOL Multiphysics® to understand and analyze their battery and fuel cell designs.
Happy Birthday, Nikola Tesla
From discovering the rotating magnetic field to inventing the Tesla coil, Nikola Tesla made countless contributions to science and physics. Learn about the life and work of this household name.
New Book on Topology Optimization for Electromagnetics
Whether you’re a student or an industry engineer, read Multiphysics Simulation: Electromechanical System Applications and Optimization, a reference guide on simulation and topology optimization.
Vacuum Tube Plus MOSFET Equals Vacuum Transistor
One potential way to replace traditional silicon transistors? Develop vacuum transistors, which combine vacuum tubes and metal oxide semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs).
Studying Sonar Systems on a Component Level
Did you know that “sonar” stands for sound navigation and ranging? Using simulation, you can study the individual components of a sonar system, including its electroacoustic transducer.
