Simulating the Insertion of a Snap Hook
Snap hooks, a type of fastener that involves the insertion of a hook into a slot, are found in the automotive industry. Simulation can be used to analyze their insertion and removal.
Instability in Portable Washing Machines
A varied distribution of clothing can cause walking instability in both traditional and portable washing machines. Multibody dynamics analysis can be used to avoid this effect in machine designs.
Improving Your Meshing with Partitioning
It can be tedious to subdivide your CAD geometry into a finite element mesh. In this blog post, we demonstrate how to use a manual meshing method called geometric partitioning to do so.
Vivaldi Antenna Design Analysis
Did you know the Vivaldi antenna was invented by someone named Peter Gibson? As the story goes, he had a passion for music and chose to name the antenna after Antonio Vivaldi, a Baroque composer.
Tears of Wine and the Marangoni Effect
Have you ever noticed that when drinking a glass of wine, sometimes “tears” fall down in the inside of the wine glass? This is the Marangoni effect in action! Learn more and see examples…
Simulating Injection Mold Cooling
Injection molding is the most common form of polymer manufacturing because large amounts of products can be produced quickly. By simulating this process, we can avoid defects in these products.
Modeling with Linearly Polarized Plane Waves
We use the Detecting the Orientation of a Metallic Cylinder Embedded in a Dielectric Shell model to demonstrate a specialized background field feature designed for linearly polarized plane waves.
Curve Fitting of Experimental Data with COMSOL Multiphysics
