A Practical Sedimentation App for Toxicology Analysis
Sedimentation is widely used in toxicology, biochemistry, and biomedicine. You can study how gravity affects this physical phenomenon with simulation.
Visualizing the Emergence of Turing Patterns with Simulation
Turing patterns are often found in nature. The conditions behind the emergence of these patterns can be studied with chemical modeling.
Extracting DNA: From Pumpkins to Mammoths
Here, we go over how to recover DNA from a pumpkin using a simple experiment, as well as how scientists made a recent breakthrough in DNA extraction research.
The History and Science Behind Vinyl Records
As vinyl records explode in popularity, we take a look back at the history of records, as well as the interesting science behind how they are produced — and how they play music.
How to Model Metabolic Reaction Networks with COMSOL®
Certain ice creams, puddings, and candies have an extremely vivid yellow color that comes from vitamin B2. The manufacturing of this supplement is one example of a metabolic reaction network…
Modeling Pitting Corrosion in COMSOL Multiphysics®
When the process of generalized corrosion is allowed to continue, the initialization of a pit may occur on the metal surface, which is also referred to as the Evans drop experiment.
Modeling Two-Phase Flow in a PEM Electrolyzer
From transportation to industrial applications, hydrogen-based energy storage has shown promise in many fields. Well-designed electrolyzers help make these applications possible.
