help: using ODE to define porosity change with time

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi everyone,

I'm a beginner in COMSOL and I have a very easy question.
The function I need to calculate is: dpore/dt=(1-pore)*(dz/dt), where pore is the target variable, z is the shrinkage rate in z direction.

I use domain ODE to calculate porosity change with time, what I input is :
f=(1-u)*(duz/dt).

I don't know how to define the shrinkage rate, so the error is that undefined variable duz.
Does anyone can help me with this problem? Thanks a lot!
