I'm using COMSOL 4.0a. Whenever I apply a free tetrahedral mesh, I can see it on the structure immediately. However, now I need to use a moving mesh to combine the results of structure deflection and fluid flow. I cannot get the solver to compute without errors. Am I supposed to immediately...

3.there are cilia inside the fluid, which move with a time and space-varying...
I'm using comsol 4 for plasma modeling but I've read that this module is just for low temperature plasma, does anybody knows the temperature limitation of the plasma in this module? I mean how much is the upper limitation of plasma temperature?
Hello
I am trying to validate my model by comparing a simple axisymetric 2D

The geometry is simple: a cylindrical (diameter d=26.5e-3[m]) jet of air
(debit Speed Ud=13.46[m/s]) is impacting a surface at distance H=0.2833[m].
Flow temp is Tj=20°C Wall...

Hi all:
The solution to my problem requires solving 16 PDE's at once. This shouldn't be hard - but you'll know what my problem is in a minute. The 16 PDE's :
∂/∂t (I+i) + Kn*μi ∂/∂x (I+i) + I+i = I0
∂/∂t (I-i) + Kn*μi ∂/∂x (I-i) + I-i = I0
for i's ranging from 1 to 8.
That comes...
