In this webinar sponsored by COMSOL, Dr. James Ransley worked through a case study in which he optimized the properties of a piezoelectric bender actuator.
Modeling a complex thermomechanical process, such as welding, requires the inclusion of several coupled physics phenomena. The webinar described how multiphysics modeling enabled a simulation of a valve welding process, which was needed to determine how a toxic leak developed.
Dr. James Ransley offered a webinar on Multiphysics Modeling of MEMS. This event was sponsored by COMSOL.
Dr. Nagi Elabbasi was a panelist for a webinar on “Democratizing Simulation: From Computational Models to Simulation Applications,” hosted by COMSOL. Watch a video of the webinar.
In Dr. Jorgen Bergstrom's webinar, he demonstrated how nonlinear structural material models can be calibrated and used in multiphysics simulations, discussed what type of experimental data is required, and illustrated how to select a proper material model to get accurate results.
Analyzing nonlinear materials often requires hyperelastic, viscoelastic, and viscoplastic material models. Dr. Bergstrom discussed how COMSOL Multiphysics makes it possible to calibrate and use these material models in finite element analysis.
Dr. Matthew Hancock presented “Using COMSOL Multiphysics in Microfluidic Applications” at the COMSOL Multiphysics workshop focusing on fluid simulations. Dr. Hancock showed different ways that COMSOL simulations can support the design and performance optimization of microfluidic systems.
