Hello,

I need to apply a Heaviside function difference to simulate a Acoustic emission burst signal. Can help, how can I do this? What model should I use? I'm new working with COMSOL.

Thanks,

Nuno Gueiral

Hi

the Heavyside functions of 3.5 are now readily available as Definitions - Functions : such as step, or rectangle or ramp ... , all with smoothing

Good luck

Hi

in v4 look under Model - Definitions - Functions, and check the step, rect or ramp functions, these have Heavyside smoothing included

Hi

The ramp function worls perfectly fine, but if your lazy like me and u use the Heaviside function often, its easier to use COMSOL's inbuilt Heaviside function


flc1hs(X,scale)

Hello,

Tank you Stevie for your answer.
I need to insert in COMSOL a function or a expression like this:
f is a impact force
f = F_max [flch2(t,t_rise )-flch2(t-t_width ,t_fall )]
where
F=max( F )/ S_max ( N / m 2 )
and
S_max=pi*(2.5e-3/2)^2

F : maximum force (2-5N)

and I don't know how? Could you help me?

Best Regards

Nuno
