Can the software "comsol" be used for modeling and simulating the nanocomposites?

09 September 2015 1 9K Report

Hi Colleagues, do you know if the commercial software "COMSOL" is used to do a simulation in nano-scale, especially for nano-composites with nanotubes or graphene?

I will appreciate it if you can provide me some references.

Chetan Swaroop

Yes definitely it can be done. Please refer the article "Modeling the Oxygen Diffusion of Nanocomposite-based Food Packaging Films" by Kanishka Bhunia et al. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22757716
