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.
This example consists of a 2D analysis of propagation modes in the chamber of a muffler. In this case, the muffler walls are considered to be made of a linear elastic material and account for their influence on the modes propagating through the cross section of the chamber. This analysis ... Read More
Underground train grids span large areas under London, Paris, New York, and other cities. The building regulations require strict noise standards, and failure to comply could result in significant losses in the market prices of developments. Therefore, train-induced noise has to be ... Read More
Whenever dimensions in waveguides become small compared to the viscous and thermal boundary layers it is necessary to model acoustics using thermoacoustics. In the present model the thermoacoustic wave field in a shallow uniform waveguide is modeled and compared to an analytical solution. Read More
This app demonstrates the following: Reading and importing data from an Excel®-file Exporting data to an Excel®-file Light theme The app computes the beam section properties and true stress distribution in a designated steel beam section. A broad range of American and European beam ... Read More
This app demonstrates the following: Using the knob form object Updating the geometry by rotating a knob Provides info if the results are above or below certain critical values Many trucks are equipped with cranes for handling loads and such cranes have a number of hydraulic ... Read More
This model shows how to set up a uniaxial compression test on a prestressed soil sample. Due to uniaxial compression and simple initial stress values, it is possible to determine the vertical yield stress analytically. The soil sample is modeled with soil plasticity and the Mohr–Coulomb ... Read More
In this example, the Bergstrom–Boyce material model is used to capture the nonequilibrium behavior of carbon-black-filled chloroprene rubber under a strain history that alternates compression with relaxation. Results are verified against experimental and numerical results taken from ... Read More
In this example, monotonic and cyclic triaxial tests are simulated using the Hardening Soil Small Strain material model. The model captures the effects of small strain stiffness and hysteresis under cyclic loading. The stress-strain relationship matches the hyperbolic curve reported in ... Read More
A thin-walled container made of rolled steel is subjected to an internal overpressure. As an effect of the manufacturing method, one of the three material principal directions — the out-of- plane direction — has a higher yield stress than the other two. Hill’s orthotropic plasticity is ... Read More
In this model, compute the propagating modes in the chamber of an automotive muffler. The geometry is a cross-section of the chamber in the Absorptive Muffler example. The model’s purpose is to study the shape of the propagating modes and to find their cut-off frequencies. As discussed ... Read More
