Hi,

I am trying to simulate a 3-D beam in COMSOL v4.3. This beam is free in one end, and in the other end, I want to applied a sinusoidal boundary displacement input D(t)= Damp*sin(2*pi*f*t).

In the Frequency Domain study, I can add varying frequencies, but how to apply that boundary excitation? I am not using structural mechanics modulus but using PDE weak forms instead.


Thank you very much

Dan

Hi

a frequency domain solver expects only amplitudes as external loads, there is no "t" time variabe,
For the equations it's using standard harmonic notations: d/dt is replaced by j*omega, and d^2/dt^2 by -omega^2, where omega = 2*pi*freq.

Good luck

Thanks a lot, Ivar.

Are "omega" and "j" the default variables defined inside COMSOL, or should I define by myself somewhere?

Hi

these are defined by COMSOL when you change the solver type, just as COMSOl defines "t" for time when you do a time solver analysis
