Why Support Choices Matter in COMSOL

When modeling a structural component in COMSOL, the type of support you choose—fixed, pinned, roller, or simple contact—can dramatically change your results. Even if you’re only analyzing one part of a larger assembly, its boundary conditions define how it behaves. Fixed supports allow no rotation or movement.Pinned supports permit rotation but restrict translation.Roller supports prevent

MRI Compatibility Testing: How Simulation Saves Time and Cost

MRI scanners are marvels of modern medicine, non-invasive, widely used, and indispensable for diagnosis. However, they can also serve as a developer’s stress test. Magnetic field intensities of 1.5 to 3 Tesla leave no room for error; one misplaced conductive material can cause heating, displacement, or interference that jeopardizes both your device and your reputation.

Engineering for Patient Outcomes: The Role of Simulation in Real-World Safety

When it comes to medical device development, patient outcomes are our unwavering focus. No matter how innovative or elegant a design might be, if it doesn’t deliver safe, reliable performance in the human body, it’s not doing its job. Fortunately, AltaSim Technologies’ engineers, with their extensive expertise, have a powerful ally in the mission to
