PML option in COMSOL version 4.3

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi,

I am working through the tutorial "Antenna decoupling using an electromagnetic band gap metamaterial" and stuck at the point to create the PML layers. This tutorial was set up for version 4.2a and I am using version 4.3 where the PML option is not showing up at the EM waves menu. Could someone please explain how to configure PML for version 4.3?

Thanks in advance,
Rad

Can't you just open 4.2 example in 4.3 and see how it's done? I haven't looked at 4.3 myself yet...

Hi

read the doc its in there, some explanations to in the release doc,
In v4.3 all PML has been regrouped to better unify between the physics, they are now defined in the top Model Definition (and not Global) node right-click.

This is a feature I still have not tested in my new v4.3 version

Good luck

I can`t find the PML feature anywhere in version 4.3. Does somebody know where did it go?
Thanks, Fernando
