Hi all,
I am calculating the stress change due to several point loads in the subsurface designed mainly in component 1 (solid mechanics module). I am expecting to calculate some other parameters which are related to the stress tensor (sig11, sig12, sig13, etc) based on the results of those stress components from component 1. I have my own equations to accomplish the above calculation.
My questions are:
Should I create a new component 2 and include those own-designed equations for following on calculations or should I just define a variable in global definitions in order to use results from component 1 (comp1.sig11?)?
I have multiple points designed in the geometry. For each point, I have a loading force. Instead of manually adding several point load in the physics. Can I possibly adding different loading forces for different points automatically from reading a file? I can easily do this in matlab but I am a beginner in comsol. So I am looking for useful suggestions!
Thanks, Shanshan
