You are invited to join us at COMSOL Day Aachen for a day of minicourses, talks by invited speakers, and the opportunity to exchange ideas with other simulation specialists in the COMSOL community.
Build a sound foundation for your modeling work. This demonstration will illustrate best practices for the entire workflow in COMSOL Multiphysics® through geometry creation, setting up your physics, meshing, solving, and postprocessing the results.
This introductory demonstration will show you the fundamental workflow of the COMSOL Multiphysics® modeling environment. We will cover all of the key modeling steps, including geometry creation, setting up physics, meshing, solving, postprocessing and highlights of the new version.
Depending on the steel grade and concentration, hydrogen might strongly affect the mechanical properties of steel, leading to so-called hydrogen embrittlement. A deep understanding of hydrogen transport and trapping in steels is crucial to the prevention of hydrogen embrittlement and can only be gained from a combination of experiments and finite element method (FEM) simulations. In this talk, a short overview of the main hydrogen-related use cases of the COMSOL Multiphysics® software will be given.
Developing innovative products requires new technologies, development tools, and methods. We will show possibilities and opportunities to transfer simulation expertise from the simulation engineer to users in product development, supplemented by some examples.
Dr. Valentin Kokotin is currently an engineer for the Modeling and Simulation team at ThyssenKrupp Steel Europe AG, where his main focus is on hydrogen embrittlement. At ThyssenKrupp Steel Europe, he has also worked on developing and optimizing hot-rolled products as part of the Conventional Steels group. He earned his master's degree from the Moscow Institute of Steel and Alloys in 2006 and his doctorate degree in solid-state physics from the Technical University of Dresden in cooperation with Leibniz Institute for Solid State and Materials Research Dresden in 2010.
Dr. Matthias Richwin is the director of virtual development/simulation at KOSTAL and has been responsible for simulations in R&D since 2007. He received his PhD from the University of Wuppertal in experimental physics in the field of X-ray optics and studied physics at the University of Dortmund and RWTH Aachen University before.
Erik Bornhöft is a technical sales engineer and joined Comsol Multiphysics GmbH in 2010. He studied physics with a focus on fluid dynamics at the University of Göttingen. His thesis work at the DLR Göttingen involved experimental and numerical research into active control of supersonic flow.
Friedrich Maier is an applications engineer at Comsol Multiphysics GmbH. Previously, he studied geophysics at the University of Göttingen, where he also received his PhD in 2014. As a researcher, he focused on electromagnetic and physicochemical methods, investigating the properties of georeservoirs.
Ad van der Linden works as an applications engineer and joined Comsol Multiphysics GmbH in 2008. Prior, he studied applied physics at the Technical University Delft in the Netherlands. He has more than 20 years of experience in electromagnetic applications combined with numerical simulations.
Niels Clausen is an applications engineer who joined Comsol Multiphysics GmbH in 2016. He received his PhD in physics from the University of Göttingen, where he studied tidal friction in stars and planets.
Lars Drögemüller has been an applications engineer at Comsol Multiphysics GmbH since 2016. He obtained his MSc in experimental solid-state physics at the University of Göttingen, where he studied the interaction of electrons and optical near fields using an ultrafast, low-energy electron diffraction experiment.
Johannes Gräwer is a technical sales engineer at Comsol Multiphysics GmbH. He earned a PhD in physics from the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organization. His research focus was the theory and simulation of complex systems and biophysics. He created the first fundamental model of food distribution in ant colonies.
