Customers using LiveLink for MATLAB can get access to reduced models through a dedicated state-space export function. “The possibility of coupling BEM to FEM creates a highly versatile Simulation environment for the automotive audio industry.”Ī framework for model reduction is available with the release of two methods, modal analysis and asymptotic waveform evaluation (AWE), for the reduction of the computational complexity of mathematical models. “The recent addition of the boundary element method in COMSOL Multiphysics will enable us to model large acoustical radiation problems, such as, exterior sound reproduction for electric cars” comments Martin Olsen, principal engineer, Research, at Harman Lifestyle Audio. It features shape memory alloy (SMA) material models to a method for capacitively coupled plasma (CCP) simulations and a hybrid boundary element-finite element (BEM-FEM) method for acoustics and acoustic-structure interaction.ĬOMSOL 5.3a offers acoustics analysis based on the boundary element method. Version 5.3a provides Simulation specialists with modeling tools and increased solver performance.

COMSOL makes available the latest release of the COMSOL Multiphysics and COMSOL Server products.
