Problem with Conditional Statement

I am working on a dissolution and multiple precipitation problem. I am using Diffusion and Moving Mesh (ALE) application modes in COMSOL 3.4 v. I have to set a conditional statement on one of the boundary in such way that it should stop moving after it reaches a value.
for example,
if r<1.5 then v=dr/dt=k*c
if r >1.5 then v=dr/dt=0
So, I am using a conditional statement like this: if((r<1.5),k*c,0). But the problem is it is stopping the whole simulation when it reaches the value of 1.5.
What i expected is :It should stop moving that boundary and it should take 0 and have to run the simulation for later times but it's not doing that. I have no answer.
I tried using the smooth function "flch1s" (like this: flch1s(1.5-r,1e-8)*k*c) instead of if, and it's working but there is a slight variation in my solution due to smoothing. if increase the error from 1e-8 to 1e-20, then it is behaving just like if statement.
I would greatly appreciate, if some one come up with an answer.
Thanks,
Manohar

I am dealing with a very similar problem. Did you figure it out ?
Thanks in advance,
