Air Pressure Sensor Performance Relies on a Solid Design
Ever wonder how your car can tell when there’s low pressure in a tire? Sensors are placed at the bottom of each tire hub and measure air pressure automatically while the car is in motion.
Improving Your Golf Swing with a Multibody Analysis
The outcome of a golf stroke is determined by the movement of the club head just prior to impact with the ball. Therefore, one theoretically could improve their golf swing via multibody analysis.
How to Model Residual Stresses Using COMSOL Multiphysics
