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 thermo-hydro-mechanical (THM) model of artificial ground freezing couples heat transfer, groundwater flow, and soil mechanics to capture ice formation, pore-pressure changes, and ground deformation during tunnel excavation. The freezing process is modeled with the apparent heat ... Read More
This model demonstrates how to use topology optimization with milling constraints to design a metalens that focuses a single wavelength to a point. This involves transferring the optimized results to another component so the result can be verified using an explicit geometry ... Read More
This space-dependent model describes a stirred semibatch reactor used for producing antibody–drug conjugates. The reactor is set up in 3D and the conjugation reactions, turbulent flow, and concentration fields are simulated as functions of time. The resulting yield and drug-to-antibody ... Read More
Drop tests are used to evaluate how consumer products respond to impacts and high accelerations. In this example, the Solid Mechanics, Explicit Dynamics interface is used to numerically simulate a drop test of a mobile phone, highlighting the permanent deformation of the aluminum case ... Read More
The miniaturization of electronics devices requires batteries with higher energy density and power. To increase the contact area between the electrodes and the solid electrolyte, 3D configurations such as the trench geometry are used. This example demonstrates how to model a solid-state ...

This example showcases a helical planetary gear train composed of a sun gear, ring gear, carrier, and five planet gears. Three cases are analyzed by in turn fixing the ring gear, sun gear, and carrier. For each configuration, a transient multibody analysis is performed to determine the ... Read More
This app is an example of how the poroelastic properties of a porous material can be determined based on measurement done with an impedance tube and parameter estimation. Being able to determine the characteristics of a porous material from a single and simple measurement opens the door ... Read More
This tutorial studies the etching of silicon using an inductively coupled plasma reactor with an RF bias in a mixture of CF4/O2. The etching rate is computed along the wafer as a function of the RF bias voltage. Read More
This model illustrates the dynamics of a car door assembly during a slam event. The system consists of a car body, a door, and rubber seals. Contact pairs are defined between the car body, rubber seals, and the door. The rubber seal is modeled using a hyperelastic material model. A ... Read More
This tutorial model explores the behavior of a microwave plasma torch. The plasma is generated within a dielectric tube inserted in a rectangular waveguide. The simulation solves the coupled equations for plasma transport and heating, microwave electromagnetic fields, fluid flow, and ... Read More
