Where do I start to make a simulation of the degradation of a syringe rubber stopper?

I am new to Comsol and barely have a week using it. I am trying to simulate the degradation of a syringe rubber stopper with liquid in the syringe. May someone give some pointer on where to start.

Does that process obey a partial differential equation (PDE)? If so, and you can identify the PDE that applies, then you'll be in a much better position to choose an approach.

Hello Roberto,

If you've never used COMSOL before, your best starting point is the Introduction to COMSOL Multiphysics Manual, version 5.2a, found under File > Help >Documentation, and also here: cdn.comsol.com/documentation/5.2.1.262/IntroductionToCOMSOLMultiphysics.pdf

Working through the tutorials it contains will help you get comfortable with the general workflow of the software and its graphical user interface. Once you're past that point, you should be able to start creating a model and ask more specific questions.
Best regards,
Jeff
