A guest blogger from Veryst Engineering demonstrates the modeling of a cantilever beam immersed in a fluid to study its natural frequencies. Read it here >>
What Kinds of FSI Problems Can COMSOL Multiphysics Solve?
We discuss the various techniques for modeling fluid–structure interaction (FSI) in the COMSOL® software, as well as highlight the add-on modules you need for these various types of analyses.
Modeling the Hydrostatic Pressure of a Fluid in a Deformable Container
Picture a water balloon being compressed at the center. As you squeeze the balloon, the locations of the highest point and depth of fluid change, altering the hydrostatic pressure distribution.
