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.
Nanoparticles have become widely used in a range of applications. For example, in pharmaceuticals, particles on the nanoscale, such as nanocrystals, are often used as an effective means of drug delivery. Meanwhile in material sciences, nanoparticle coating is an increasingly common way ... Read More
The propagation of elastic waves in the ground after a seismic event is simulated using a 2D model. The effect of the ground surface topology on the wave propagation is illustrated when an ideal half-space is modified with the presence of a small mountain. The model is a variation of ... Read More
This model demonstrates how to optimize the charging profile of a battery using gradient based optimization. The optimization solver minimizes the time required for charging the battery from 0% to 90% state of charge, while at the same time constraining the amount lithium inventory lost ... Read More
This example exemplifies how to optimize the design of a capacitor through optimization. A more detailed description of the phenomenon and the modeling process can be seen in the blog post "Changing the Dimensions of a Model Using Shape Optimization". Read More
This example demonstrates an app that utilizes the LiveLink™ interface for SOLIDWORKS® to run simulations on CAD designs. Read More
Electron transport in low-temperature plasmas depends strongly on the electron energy distribution function (EEDF), which is often approximated as Maxwellian but is frequently nonequilibrium in reality. Incorporating nonequilibrium EEDF behavior into spatially dependent models often ... Read More
Electrochromic devices (ECDs) may be employed in ”smart” windows, for instance in buildings or motor cycle visors, where the transparency of the device can be controlled by applying a voltage. ECDs make use of the fact that the absorbance of visual light for a chemical species in a ... Read More
This model demonstrates the simulation of surface dielectric barrier discharges (DBDs) using the Electric Discharge interface. The formulation incorporates a comprehensive set of physical processes, including charge transport, impact ionization, electron attachment, recombination, and ... Read More
This tutorial shows how to simulate coupled heat and moisture transport in a wall. The wall is modeled considering an air flow between interior and exterior varying with time. The 1D model is the third benchmark test defined in HAMSTAD-WP2 Modeling for the validation of numerical ... Read More
This model simulates the electrohydrodynamic (EHD) flow of a dielectric liquid around a wire electrode positioned between two parallel flat-plate electrodes. The ion transport is described using the Poisson–Nernst–Planck equations, while fluid motion is governed by the Navier–Stokes ... Read More
