Hi

good remark there seem to be no ceil(), floor(), integer() or frac(),
funny, have you asked "support" ?

Good luck

Hi,

abs, ceil, floor, and round exist among the built-in mathematical functions in COMSOL Multiphysics. I'm not sure what the definition of an integer function would be. COMSOL Multiphysics uses floating-point arithmetic.

Best regards,

Hi Magnus

good to hear, I just couldnt find them in the V3.5a doc, didnt look at the right place ?,

I forgot to check in the V4 ) Now I see them there (p86, 87 CMPUserGuide.pdf v4.1)

Hi Magnus, Ivar and others,

I came across this posting because I ran into situation where V 42a requires
and integer not a floating point and that is "Sector Symmetry" from "Rotating Machinery, Magnetic"
in the AC/DC module.

I want to define a global parameter to define the number of sectors 'nsect' and use this
parameter to define geometry and in "Sector symmetry". This does not work because
CMP complains about 'nsect' being a floating point number. How can I cast this
to an integer.

thanks for any ideas

regards

Jens

Hi

have you checked the help/doc on operators such as ceil() and round() ?

But these make the solution spiky so depending on how you use the variable the solver might have issues getting derivatives

Yes I did, but these functions return integer numbers in floating
point format and Comsol expect a real integer here.

Hi

good point, I would say then ask "support"

And report back ;)

Hi,

Comsol suppor told me that in the next release the entry for
the number of symmetry sectors accepts global parameters.
