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 example, a random vibration test of electronic equipment is simulated. Three analyses are performed, one for acceleration in each global direction. Accelerations in the components and forces in clamping bolts are evaluated. Read More
This tutorial shows how to model a miniaturized magnetostrictive antenna developed for use inside living cells. The stress in the antenna, the magnetic flux density, the current density, and the displacement of the tip of the device are investigated at the resonance frequency. Read More
Tutorials in this series deal with creating and manipulation of boundary layer meshes. In these tutorials you will learn how to set up a boundary layer mesh and modify the settings for an automatically created boundary layer mesh. For physics-controlled meshing a boundary layer mesh is ... Read More
The classical forward problem of geoelectrics (includes electrical resistivity tomography, ERT and earlier techniques as vertical electric sounding, VES) is the calculation of potentials at a given set of electrodes (M,N) while current is injected at other electrodes (A,B) into the ... Read More
This tutorial illustrates how to use a reduced order model to compute the response of a structure subjected to three simultaneous loads having independent time histories. Reduced order models provide an efficient way to analyze problems within linear structural dynamics. Read More
This example models a small reverse osmosis water desalination unit. The unit consists of a spirally wound semi-permeable membrane through which the water is forced under high pressure. The membrane retains the salt, such that on the permeate side fresh water is produced and on the ... Read More
This model demonstrates how to set up a dynamic simulation that includes several contact interactions, including friction, using a single general contact pair. The dynamics is solved using explicit time stepping. Read More
Just like optical lenses focus light, electric and magnetic lenses can focus beams of charged particles. Systems of magnetic quadrupole lenses find a common use in focusing both ion and particle beams in accelerators at nuclear and particle physics centers. This model shows the path of ... Read More
This model investigates the wave propagation in a photonic crystal that consists of GaAs pillars placed equidistant from each other. The distance between the pillars determines a relationship between the wave number and the frequency of the light, which prevents light of certain ... Read More
This is a tutorial model that demonstrates how to use mesh parameters such as Minimum element size Resolution of curvature Resolution of narrow regions Maximum element growth rate The instructions also detail how to access the mesh statistics and how to create a mesh plot. Read More
