The Application Gallery features COMSOL Multiphysics® tutorial and demo app files pertinent to the electrical, structural, acoustics, fluid, heat, and chemical disciplines. You can use these examples as a starting point for your own simulation work by downloading the tutorial model or demo app file and its accompanying instructions.
Search for tutorials and apps relevant to your area of expertise via the Quick Search feature. Note that many of the examples featured here can also be accessed via the Application Libraries that are built into the COMSOL Multiphysics® software and available from the File menu.
In this tutorial, the acoustics of an open-plan office space are analyzed using a wave-based approach in the time domain. An initial pulse is released and the room response is analyzed. Realistic frequency-dependent impedance conditions for the ceiling, carpet, and gypsum walls are ... Read More
This model showcases how to solve for the scattered field when knowing the incident field for three different types of scatterer, that is, an infinitely rigid one, a cavity and an elastic inclusion. This formulation can be useful when the scatterer is in the far field of the source, so ... Read More
An axisymmetric model of a rigid piston in an infinite baffle is used to exemplify the Exterior Field Calculation feature of the Acoustics Module. The radiation results provided by the COMSOL Multiphysics® software are compared to analytical results for the on-axis radiation ... Read More
Analyzing resonances is essential when designing loudspeakers. Resonances can originate from various components, with the diaphragm being a significant source. Traditional approaches to controlling diaphragm resonances have different benefits and drawbacks. A more advanced approach is to ... Read More
This model shows how to use the scattered-field formulation to compute the transmission coefficient for impinging P and S plane elastic waves onto a finite-size phononic crystal. The transmission tends to zero in the frequency ranges corresponding to P- and S-wave band gaps, as ... Read More
This tutorial shows the analysis of a car cabin in order to study the performance of a sound system in the low to mid frequency range. The model studies the transient response to an emitted Gaussian modulated harmonic signal solved with the Pressure Acoustics, Time Explicit physics ... Read More
Coupling acoustics in liquids or gases with structural mechanics has applications in many engineering fields, including loudspeakers, acoustic sensors, nondestructive testing, and medical ultrasound diagnostics. This tutorial model demonstrates how to model the interaction between sound ... Read More
When high-fidelity measurement microphones are calibrated, a pressure reciprocity calibration method is used. During calibration, two microphones are connected at each end of a closed cylindrical cavity. For the calibration procedure, it is important to understand the acoustic field ... Read More
This app demonstrates the following: Using a Java® utility class for combining several waveforms and for playing sound Using tables for presenting results The app allows you to study the design of an organ pipe and then play the sound and pitch of the changed design. The pipe sound ... Read More
In this model a Knowles ED23146 receiver (miniature loudspeaker) is connected to a test set-up consisting of a 50 mm (1 mm diameter) earmold tube and a so-called 0.4-cc coupler. The receiver is modeled using a lumped spice network and connected to the finite element domain at the tube ... Read More
