Modeling and Simulation: Opportunity “It’s not just what you do it’s also why you do it” – Part 2 With all these advantages of modeling and simulation that were documented in Part 1 of this blog where is computational analysis and virtual prototyping being used and what is the opportunity for future use? A […]

COMSOL Conference and 5.2 Better Than Ever It has taken us some time to share about this year’s COMSOL Conference because we have been thinking of just the right word to describe it. The problem is that there is too much to describe, and we know we cannot describe it as indescribable… so we waited.

COMSOL Workshops Over the years, our association with COMSOL has grown from one of novice user to avid user to COMSOL Certified Consultant to experts who provide Training Classes to help new and existing users maximize their use of COMSOL Multiphysics. Last fall, we had several conversations with COMSOL about a possible new association. As a result,
Training & Teaching Helps Us Grow One of the Core Values we keep coming back to is #6 – “Courage of our Convictions.” Taking into consideration our other Core Values, we understand it is a fine line we walk when we communicate confidence in our authority to operate our business and act boldly to

During our recent webinar with COMSOL on thermal-structure interaction modeling, we at AltaSim Technologies demonstrated modeling of a MEMS energy harvester that scavenges waste heat. Examples of sources for waste heat range from microprocessor chips, to internal combustion engines, to chemical processing plants. If the waste heat generated from these cases could be used to

Wave propagation problems require sufficient mesh refinement to ensure twelve degrees of freedom per wavelength. This requirement develops from the error associated with approximating a sine wave with a polynomial. AltaSim Technologies shares this type of information regularly with users of the COMSOL Multiphysics software through our Tips and Tricks. If you are interested in
Mesh Refinement for Wave Problems Read More »
As part of our efforts to assist COMSOL users in performing high-quality analysis, we recently used our bi-monthly email to provide a COMSOL Tips and Tricks update. In this tip, we remind users to include twelve degrees of freedom per wavelength when meshing wave problems. The following video demonstrates why twelve degrees of freedom per
