Calculating cubic roots with conditions

Hello everyone
I am using Comsol 3.5a and I am trying to perform a calculation but unfortunately it seems not to work. I am using Comsol just to solve differential equations and , hence, I am using the mathematical tool that is incorporated. My domain is a square with variables x and z and side equal to 10 dimensionless units. What I want is to calculate the square root of (x^2-y^2) but only for x>y. In all other cases I want the outcome to be 0. I tryied to use absolute value (using the abs(x^2-y^2)) but it seems that in that way I also create solutions for x<y , as well.
Also I am trying to use a condition like: sqrt (x^2-y^2)*(x>y) but also is not working.
Do you have any idea what should I do?
Thank you very much
Yuri

How about sqrt((x^2-y^2)*(x>y)) ?
