im doing a 3d beam that have a prescribed displacement in the z direction but I needed to be with respect to time using this function below 200sin(120pi*t)[um] how do it add it on comsol
also how do i do a frequency domain study because it giving me a error that t is not defined.

Start out with a frequency domain study (steady-state). Your frequency is seemingly 60 Hz, so that is what you input. Then go to a time-domain study.

that correct my frequency is 60 Hz so i need to do a
- frequency domain, then using the result use
- frequency to time domain as the next step?

Frequency dependent gets you the sinusoidal steady state solution.
Time dependent with sin(wt) gets you the initial transient when the sinusoidal excitation is turned on at t = 0.
Which one do you want??

when t = 0

OK if you are doing a time-dependent study then t is automatically time and the driving function should be written 200[um]sin(2pi60[1/s]t).
(If you do a frequency dependent study all quantities are phasors and time does not explicitly appear.)
(The website seems to remove asterisks from equations so you need to put them where they belong).

A comment on the formatting: The forum uses the 'Markdown' syntax. Asterisk then means italic. If you want the asterisk to be shown as is, put a backslash ( \ ) in front of it. For more details, see https://www.comsol.com/forum/formatting-guide
The expression should then look like 200[um]*sin(2*pi*60[1/s]*t).
Entered as
200[um]\*sin(2\*pi\*60[1/s]\*t)
