Simulations That Stick: How In Silico Evidence Is Winning Over Regulators

Simulation has always been an engineer’s best friend. Now, it’s becoming a regulatory ally, too. From the FDA to the EMA, agencies are increasingly open to in silico evidence to support design validation, safety assessment, and performance claims for medical devices. If you’re using COMSOL Multiphysics, you’re sitting on a mountain of valuable, submission-ready data, […]

Revolutionizing Post-Surgical Infection Treatment with Multiphysics Simulation

Every year, hundreds of thousands of people in the U.S. undergo life-changing knee replacement surgeries. These procedures, while meant to restore mobility and ease chronic pain, can lead to a postoperative battle with infections, particularly those surrounding metal implants. These infections remain one of the most serious and urgent complications. Traditionally, treatment involves invasive revision

Clean Implants, Zero Residue: Laser Ablation for Orthopedic Sterilization

Sterility is everything in the OR, and orthopedic implants are no exception. Whether it’s a hip prosthesis, spinal rod, or knee replacement, even a microscopic contaminant can lead to infection, inflammation, or rejection. Enter laser ablation: a precise, residue-free sterilization technique gaining traction for orthopedic components. And COMSOL, a leading simulation software, is playing a

Heart of the System: Designing MRI-Compatible Pacemakers Using Simulation

Pacemakers have long been a marvel of medical engineering, but for decades, they had one fatal flaw: MRI machines. Strong magnetic fields and radiofrequency (RF) energy can heat leads, distort images, or cause dangerous malfunctions. That’s no longer acceptable. Today, engineers must design pacemakers to be MRI-safe, and simulation is their most powerful tool. The

COMSOL Multiphysics vs. ANSYS: Selecting the Optimal Solution for Multiphysics Simulations

When creating something built to last, it is imperative to have the right tool for the job. A four-year-old once told me that while wearing a Fisher-Price Tool Belt and helping his grandpa sand his grandma’s kitchen worktop. It was sage advice then, and it is sage advice now. Having the right tool for the

Mini, Mighty, Precis: Microfluidics and the Evolution of Insulin Pumps

Insulin pumps have come a long way from pager-sized clunkers. Today’s designs are slim, smart, and powered by microliters, not milliliters. At the core? Microfluidics, the epitome of precision in insulin delivery. Engineers using COMSOL Multiphysics are not just using simulation, they are leveraging it to perfect fluid dynamics, sensor integration, and closed-loop control in
