Users will benefit from a solid-beam connection feature as well as a new technique to model thread forces for bolts using a dedicated type of contact pair boundary condition. A SMA material can be coupled to other physics such as heat transfer. New Shape Memory Alloy Material Models and 3D Solid-Beam ConnectionsĮngineers designing smart metal devices, from biomedical to consumer products, can now include a shape memory alloy (SMA) material in their simulations. Those working in electromagnetics can now use the boundary element method to analyze magnetic fields in models with large volume-to-surface ratio, including infinite domains, with great accuracy. Revolutionary Method for Plasma Simulations, BEM for Magnetic Field AnalysisĪ revolutionary new method for modeling capacitively coupled plasmas (CCP), based on a non-linear time-periodic formulation, reduces solution times of CCP simulations from weeks to hours. A predefined multiphysics coupling has been introduced for the modeling of heat and moisture transport in building materials and moist air. There is a new realizable k- turbulence model available for a more accurate description of fluid flow features. The dramatic increase in usability also includes the use of external thermodynamic property packages that may link through standard formats to COMSOL Multiphysics,” comments Ed Fontes, CTO, COMSOL. “The built-in thermodynamic and transport properties feature allows for a rapid, accurate, and user-friendly model definition of fluid flow, heat transfer, and reacting flow models. Thermodynamics Properties Library, New Turbulence Model, and Moisture Flow Multiphysics CouplingĬhemical engineers will benefit from the built-in library for thermodynamics properties, which features models for gases, liquids, and phase equilibria (gas-liquids).
