The Rotordynamics Module has a new model of a turbocharger that includes cross-coupled bearing forces.As seen here, you can couple beams to solids in 3D, and it is easier than ever with a new connection type in the Structural Mechanics Module.Now, you can include the friction effects from threads on cylindrical surfaces with the Structural Mechanics Module.

Modeling bolt thread contact has been made easier.This Bessel panel tutorial model has been updated with a BEM-FEM hybrid modeling technique for the Acoustics Module.A new vibroacoustic loudspeaker model has six multiphysics couplings to employ a hybrid BEM-FEM approach, for solids and shells.Model sonar systems, such as this tonpilz transducer array, with a new hybrid BEM-FEM modeling approach in the Acoustics Module.Images from the Release, Highlighting Physics-Specific News All of these features and more can be found on the COMSOL Server Updates page in the Release Highlights. Notifications can be sent to users to inform them of new or updated apps. A new app has been added to validate cluster setup to test settings for cluster and remote computing. App creators can edit the title, description, and thumbnail for an app directly from the COMSOL Server user interface. Administrators can set up automatic login for repeat users, eliminating the need to sign in every time they want to run an application. The release of COMSOL Server version 5.3a also provides the most comprehensive list of new features since its debut. (We are also publishing an in-depth blog post about Cividis soon, so stay tuned!)Ī loudspeaker model visualized with the new Cividis color table. Find more info on the Cividis color table on the Postprocessing and Visualization Updates page in the Release Highlights. The color table was designed for people with color vision deficiency, optimized for those with red-green color blindness, but useful for everyone when showing scalar values. It’s called Cividis and was created by Ryan Renslow, Chris Anderton, and Jamie Nuñez of the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. This could become the most used feature of the 5.3a release (learn more about it on the COMSOL Desktop® page in the Release Highlights).ĭemonstrating the copy-paste functionality.Ī new color table has been added that may be the most interesting new feature. For example, when working on a model that has multiple components running similar but varied analyses, instead of redefining several of the same physics boundary conditions over again, you can copy your already defined physics interface into a different component and make slight changes. The copy-paste functionality has been extended to physics interfaces and even entire model components. Read on for a brief introduction to some of the significant updates to the COMSOL Multiphysics® and COMSOL Server™ platform products and add-on modules.ĬOMSOL Multiphysics® and COMSOL Server™ Version 5.3a Updatesīefore getting into the physics-specific updates, let’s take a look at a couple of the features that can be employed by every COMSOL Multiphysics user. Today marks the release of a new version of the COMSOL® software, which includes core functionality updates and major updates to the add-on modules.
