Example for a geometry sequence to deduce a shell model from an imported solid CAD file. The model demonstrates how to generate parameters from dimensions of a geometry and how to convert a solid CAD geometry into a shell representation using midsurface and extract Read More
This model demonstrates how to solve an ordinary differential equation for the motion of a spacecraft about a planet. In addition to computing the path, it is possible to use several results presentation features to make interesting visualizations. For a full description of this model, ... Read More
Fractals exhibit self-similarity at different scales and are often found in nature. Fractal noise is a technique used to emulate organic-looking textures, such as to achieve realistic visualizations of various materials in COMSOL Multiphysics®. These models demonstrate how to ... Read More
This model demonstrates 3D topology and shape optimization for an extruded geometry. This can be achieved using equation-based modeling and extrusion operators. The model considers stiffness maximization of a beam subject to a constraint on the mass, but the method can be used with any ... Read More
This tutorial model compares the results between a domain approach and the Thin Moisture Barrier feature to simulate the moisture transport in a wall with a vapor barrier. The Thin Moisture Barrier feature neglects diffusion, two studies are proposed, a first one where diffusion is ... Read More
This model demonstrates the ability to simulate Multibody Dynamics in COMSOL. It comprises a multilink mechanism that is used in an antique automobile as a gearshift lever. It was created out of curiosity to find out how large forces are on the individual components. The model uses ... Read More
A ribbon mixer (sometimes referred to as a ribbon blender) is a mechanical device that is commonly used to mix different types of granular material. Ribbon mixers are widely used across various industries including food processing, pharmaceuticals, chemical industries, agriculture, ... Read More
The model shows how to estimate the Young's modulus and Poisson ratio based on a tensile test. The test measures the tensile force and the radial displacement. Typical numerical values of these quantities differ with around 10 orders of magnitude. Using a maximum likelihood strategy ... Read More
An interesting question was raised in the 1950s by the mathematician Ernst Straus that, in an arbitrarily shaped empty room with side walls made of perfect mirrors, will a point light source always illuminate the whole room? This question was answered by the Nobel Prize-winning ... Read More
