How to Use Topology Optimization Results as Model Geometries
Oftentimes, topology optimization is not the last step in your design process. In fact, you can use the results from a topology optimization study as model geometries for your next analysis.

Which Study Type Should I Use for My Electrothermal Analysis?
What’s the best interface to use when implementing electrothermal analyses in COMSOL Multiphysics? We go over the interfaces, study types, and multiphysics couplings for high and low frequencies.

What Is the Curl Element (and Why Is It Used)?
When solving some electromagnetics problems, the curl element (also called the edge element or vector element) can be used in the finite element method.

How to Simulate Impressed Current Cathodic Protection
2 common methods for protecting metal structures against galvanic corrosion are sacrificial anode cathodic protection (SACP) and impressed current cathodic protection (ICCP).

Using Web Browser Translation Tools for COMSOL Documentation
COMSOL documentation includes a lot of helpful information. Most web browsers include an automatic translation tool that enables you to read the documentation in the language of your choice.

Introducing the Metal Processing Module
The Metal Processing Module includes 2 interfaces for analyzing diffusive and displacive metallurgical phase transformations: Metal Phase Transformation and Austenite Decomposition.

How to Automate the Setup of Your Multibody System Models
The Automated Model Setup functionality includes 2 features that will speed up your modeling process for multibody systems: Create Rigid Domains and Create Gears.

Three Semiconductor Device Models Using the Density-Gradient Theory
You can use the density-gradient theory to model semiconductor devices. Here are 3 examples: a Si inversion layer, Si nanowire MOSFET, and InSb p-channel FET.
