Patent number: 12099787Abstract: A system and method for implementing, on one or more processors, a bidirectional link between a design system and a multiphysics modeling system includes establishing via a communications link a connection between the design system and the multiphysics modeling system. Instructions are communicated via the communication link that include commands for generating a geometric representation in the design system based on parameters communicated from the multiphysics modeling system. One or more memory components can be configured to store a design system dynamic link library and a multiphysics modeling system dynamic link library. A controller can be operative to detect an installation of the design system, and implement via the dynamic link libraries, bidirectional communications of instructions between the design system and the multiphysics modeling system.Type: GrantFiled: February 13, 2023Date of Patent: September 24, 2024Assignee: COMSOL ABInventors: Eduardo Fontes, Lars Langemyr, Jean-Francois Hiller, Svante Littmarck, Nils Malm, Tomas Normark, Björn Sjödin, Daniel Smith

Patent number: 11934752Abstract: A graphical user interface includes GUI elements configured for defining discretized base geometry data for a model of a physical system, receiving a first input representing a user instruction to add a perfectly matched layer to the model, receiving a second input representing the user selection of boundaries that define a base geometry, and receiving a third input representing extra geometry meshing instructions. Extra geometry line segment data is discretized representing an outward direction of a PML from the boundary according to the extra geometry meshing instructions. Weak form expressions representing a wave-related phenomena are formed based on received PML settings and physics settings parameterized using discretized base geometry data and discretized extra geometry data. Matrix data are generated based on the formed weak form expressions. A solution to a simulation of the wave-related phenomena of the model is generated based on the formed weak form expressions.Type: GrantFiled: September 14, 2020Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: COMSOL ABInventors: Arne Nordmark, Eduardo Fontes, Hans Rullgãrd, Henrik Sõnnerlind, Johan Öjemalm, Lars Langemyr, Daniel Bertilsson, Nils Malm, Johan Thaning, Eduardo Gonzalez, Niklas Rom, Simon Erlandsson

Patent number: 11893318Abstract: Simulation methods and systems are described for topology and shape optimization of a geometrical representation of a physical object being modeled. An initial geometry of the physical object is represented. Equation data representing physical properties for portions of an initial geometry are defined. User inputs are received through a GUI for optimization settings and user selections of portions of the geometry being optimized. For topology optimization, various material properties and solver settings may be defined. For shape optimization, various solver settings and optimization objective may be defined. A discretized model is generated of the physical object. Solutions of the topology or shape optimization are generated and updated values are determined. Iterative operations are then performed for solving the topology or shape optimization objective expressions. The solutions are stored and graphical representations of the solutions may be generated.Type: GrantFiled: September 21, 2020Date of Patent: February 6, 2024Assignee: Comsol ABInventors: Kristian Ejlebjærg Jensen, Nils Malm, Grigori Grozman, Gunnar Andersson, Björn Bretz, Lars Langemyr, Erik Melin, Eduardo Fontes
