Synopsis

This book focuses on the geometry creation techniques for use in finite element analysis. Examples are provided as a sequence of fin designs with progressively increasing complexity. A fin was selected as it is a feature widely employed for thermal management. As the content progresses, the reader learns to create or import a geometry into a FEM tool using COMSOL Multiphysics^®. The fundamentals may also be applied to other commercial packages such as ANSYS^® or Abaqus^TM. The content can be utilized in a variety of engineering disciplines including mechanical, aerospace, biomedical, chemical, civil, and electrical. The book provides an overview of the tools available to create and interact with the geometry. It also takes a broader look on the world of geometry, showing how geometry is a fundamental part of nature and how it is interconnected with the world around us.

Features:

• Includes example models that enable the reader to implement conceptual material in practical scenarios with broad industrial applications
• Provides geometry modeling examples created with built in features of COMSOL Multiphysics^® v. 5.4 or imported from other dedicated CAD tools
• Presents meshing examples and provides practical advice on mesh generation
• Includes companion files with models and custom applications created with COMSOL Multiphysics^® Application Builder.

From the Back Cover

This book focuses on the geometry creation techniques for the purpose of finite element analysis. Examples are provided as a sequence of fin designs with progressively increasing complexity.A fin was selected as it is a feature widely employed for thermal management. As the content progresses, the reader learns to create or import a geometry into a FEM tool--COMSOL Multiphysics. However, the fundamentals may be applied to other commercial packages such as ANSYS or Abaqus FEM. The content can be utilized in a variety of engineering disciplines including mechanical, aerospace, biomedical, chemical, civil, and electrical. Mathematicians,engineers, and analysts may equally benefit from the content as it provides the reader with an overview of the tools available to create and interact with the geometry.

This work also takes a broader look on the world of geometry, showing how geometry is fundamental part of nature and how it is interconnected with the world around us. The historical background provided shows the progression of geometrical science from the dawn of civilization to the multiple specialized disciplines that geometry has evolved into today.
