Hi

How could I define attenuation(dB/meter) in wave propagation in PDE module of comsol ?

cheers

Hi

what do you mean ?

to plot

20*log10(myVar)

or to find the expression of myVar ?

Good luck

Hi,

Thank you for your reply? I mean how could I enter attenuation in system? what is myvar and how could I obtain it?

cheers,

Hi

"myVar" is just a quick name I use to represent any "user" variable. In your case you must then define
myVar = attenuation.

For me attenuation is model dependent, ie. could be the ratio of the integral of the input field to the output field, or the ratio of the values at two locations ...
