Dear sir, This is dhanunjay, I am doing micromechanics analysis by representative volume element method and periodic boundary conditions for the fiber of circular and elliptical cross-sections. I am able to perform both separately for different cross-sections if I try to solve in a single file by taking another component and all it is showing only one result and unable to connect the compared graphs between them. But I want both cross-sections to be done in a single file and also need to show the comparison in the form of graphs for the fiber volume fraction and material constants. So in this context, I am seeking your help in performing both RVE models in single file and need comparisons. I hope a positive reply from you. Thanking you very much.

Dear Dhanunjay,
It is possible to solve for two or more RVE models in a single file but in different components. The only limitation for now is that the homogeneous material created under global definition corresponds to any one of the RVE models. Apart from that, you can plot or derive any quantity from all the RVE models.
If you still face any issues, feel free to send your query and .mph file to support@comsol.com
