Hello everyone,

I am beginner to comsol physics.I am trying to simulate a task which contains implemented lift force of water on a solid structure(nickel).

I need to know where to start from? Which modules should i use and which steps should i take?

I looked up an example from comsol site and tried to do that. which steps can i change to make it correctly and suitable for my task?

Thanks in advance:)
