Hi

I am new to COMSOL. I was trying the Thermoelastic damping in MEMS resonator model [it was done on 3.5 but my version is 4.2a] provided by the comsol. Although I get the similar eigenfrequencies but not getting any Q-factor [shows error] value nor the temperature distribution correctly. How to evaluate the Q factor for TED in COMSOL? Also can some please explain the TED modelling in comsol?

Any help on TED would be appreciated. Thanks

Can someone please help me defining the atttached equation as a heat source (Q) in COMSOL? How do I write it in user defined Q source?

Refering to this model www.uk.comsol.com/showroom/gallery/1439/

why in this model strain reference temperature is set to zero? And the thermal strain is assumed as alpha*T
instead of alpha*ΔT. Please explain

ΔT = T - Tref
