Can sequential boundary conditions be applied in COMSOL 3.5?

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi,

I have a plate that will be under two different loads. The sequence of the loadings is important and makes difference. I was wondering if the sequence of 1-applying the first force, 2- saving the solution, and lastly using the solution for the initial values of the second loading, can be automated.
I was hoping that the Solver Sequences option in the Solver Manager of COMSOL 3.5 could let me do this, but my impression is that this option is not applicable for change in boundary condition, but the solver type.

Any advice on how to do this is appreciated.

Thanks.
Manuel
