How to simulate electrostatic attraction force without MEMS module

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi, simulation folks

As written in the title, I'd like to know how to simulate the electrostatic attraction between two charged plates only using "Solid Mechanics" and "Electrostatics" modules? I know it can be done using MEMS module but I don't have its license.

Please refer to the attached simple example file.

Thanks,

James

Add a Force Calculation subnode. It is in Electrostatics, quite obvious?
