Modeling Electromechanics in a Capacitive Pressure Sensor
Duration: 17:50
For devices that perform electrical operations through the use of moving parts, it is necessary to simultaneously conduct both structural and electrical analyses.
In this step-by-step instructional video, you will learn how the Electromechanics interface in COMSOL Multiphysics can be used to solve solid mechanics and electrostatic problems through simulation.
