Using Simulation in the Race Against Corrosion
A German research institute and a well-known car manufacturer joined forces to investigate the corrosion occurring in automotive rivets and sheet metal. Get the full story.

Changing the Dimensions of a Model Using Shape Optimization
If your model has a single objective function to be improved, a set of geometric parameters to be changed, and a set of constraints, you can find the optimal structure without any remeshing.

TNO Advances Virtual Material Design in 3D Printing
Researchers at the Netherlands Organization for Applied Scientific Research (TNO) are investigating how 3D printing can be applied to material design. Get the full story.

Modeling the Dynamics of a Gyroscope
Gyroscopes and spinning tops aren’t just old-fashioned toys. Using models of these 2 structures, we illustrate the remarkable properties of rotating bodies.

Testing the Safety of Reinforced Concrete Beams with an App
The Parameterized Concrete Beam demo app is based on a model of a reinforced concrete beam. It can be used to easily compute the beam’s deflection and axial stress over a range of parameters.

Simulate Three-Phase Flow with a New Phase Field Interface
The Three-Phase Flow, Phase Field interface, used for modeling separated three-phase flow, computes the shape of the interfaces between the 3 phases and accounts for interactions with walls.

COMSOL Server™ Version 5.2 Supports Faster, Focused Apps
As of version 5.2 of the COMSOL® software, there are major improvements to COMSOL Server™: launch apps much faster and configure the browser to run only one dedicated app.

Parade Technologies Improves Workflow Efficiency with Apps
Researchers at Parade Technologies create simulation apps and distribute them to colleagues — saving time and more effectively communicating with their customers as a result.
