I want to update boundary condition as variable in matlab

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi, I am solving inverse heat problem . I am using comsol to solve, and matlab to calculate the new boundary condition. I want to update the boundary condition with new one in every 'for' cycle. I used the help inside the comsol but it gives me error i cant use it.

Hi

why cant you use COMSOl for everything ? thta is what the math part of COMSOL is all about, no ? solving means square optimisation problems

Add a general equation dependent on your variable to be optimised define possibly a weak condition too, ensure initial conditins are OK and if possible a derivative and off you go

Good luck

Hi again
I countered a problem during my modeling how I will include experimental data to comsol.
thanks for your time

Hi

experimental data can be entered as a "Definition Function", either with an interpolation or a piecewise function, the former has a derivative that helps the solver to not to get stuck on the steps

I thank you very much for what you are doing you are life saver I am working on it. But as matter of curiosity . Is there a way to update boundary condition as matlab variable in a 'for' loop. The boundary condition is like 'p*sin t '
which 'p' up to dates in a loop it will be fun to compare to results.
thanks

Hi

normally your boundary conditions can also be driven by equations, so long i's mathematically correct without circular loops

I appreciate your answer again however I want to define P as a variable that changes during each loop when I'm doing that it gives me error.
thank you
