Investigating Damage to Cultural Heritage Sites with Simulation

May 3, 2016

To find out why paintings in Saint Catherine’s Chapel in the Netherlands are deteriorating, researchers from the Eindhoven University of Technology combined physical measurements and simulation.

Simulating a 3D Multilayered Graphene Biosensor Design

May 2, 2016

A team from the Polytechnic University of Bucharest designed and analyzed a 3D multilayered graphene biosensor with COMSOL Multiphysics®. Get the full story here.

Building More Effective Water Treatment Basins with Apps

April 18, 2016

Fluid flow simulation is an efficient way to optimize the design of water treatment basins to ensure their overall effectiveness. Apps expand these capabilities to a wider audience.

Evaluate Characteristics of a Periodic Finned Pipe with an App

April 11, 2016

We go over how to model a finned pipe setup in COMSOL Multiphysics®, as well as how to transform the model into a user-friendly simulation app.

Making a Recipe for the Perfect Soft-Boiled Egg with Simulation

March 31, 2016

In a physics course at the Technische Universiteit Eindhoven (TU/e), students investigate the science behind cooking the perfect soft-boiled egg using simulation and real-world experimentation.

Modeling Thermal Ablation for Material Removal

March 30, 2016

When certain materials are heated to a certain point, they go directly from the solid to the gas phase in a process called ablation. Learn how to model the thermal ablation process here.

Viscosity Ramping Improves the Convergence of CFD Models

March 29, 2016

Viscosity ramping can help decrease the computation time for your models by solving for higher viscosities and using the solutions as initial conditions for the problem at lower viscosities.

Model How the Bubbles in a Glass of Stout Beer Sink, Not Rise

March 17, 2016

Ever notice how the bubbles in certain kinds of stout beer sink to the bottom of the glass instead of rising to the top? We explain this phenomenon using fluid flow simulation.
