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 model illustrates the process of evaluating the radar cross section (RCS) of a metallic sphere through the utilization of the boundary element method (BEM). By taking advantage of a vertical symmetry plane that is parallel to the polarization of an incident background field, the ... Read More
This verification model uses the Electromagnetic Waves, Boundary Elements interface to simulate the RCS of perfectly conducting sphere. The simulated result is compared to analytical calculation to verify the accuracy. Read More
This model shows how to perform a submodeling analysis in order to evaluate structural stress. Using a submodel helps to compute the results in a refined geometry detail while applying loads and constraints in the global model. Read More
In this tutorial model, you will see how to set up an eigenfrequency analysis of a rotor with multiple disks and bearings. The example illustrates how to use Campbell and stability diagrams to identify the critical speeds and the stability threshold. The rotor is modeled using the Beam ... Read More
The first model describes the simultaneous flow of two immiscible fluids in porous media - here air displaces water in a multi-step inlet pressure experiment. We solve for the pressure and the degree saturation for the air and water within a representative volume and so track saturation ... Read More
In this example, two model for brittle damage are used to evaluate the fracture of a notched concrete beam subjected to three point bending. The results are compared with experimental data. Read More
A classic benchmark example in computational electromagnetics is to find the resonant frequency and Q-factor of a cavity with lossy walls. Here, models of rectangular, cylindrical, and spherical cavities are shown to be in agreement with analytic solutions. Read More
This tutorial shows how you can use the Electromechanics interface in COMSOL's MEMS Module to model Electrostriction. Electrostrictive materials (e.g. PMN-PT) exhibit nonlinear strain as a function of electric field. This 2D axisymmetry model uses a parametric sweep of voltage to ... Read More
This example demonstrates how to model moisture transfer and induced swelling in a paperboard roll subject to varying ambient conditions. The material properties of the paperboard are anisotropic. Read More
In this model the high speed turbulent gas flow in a converging and diverging nozzle is modeled using the High Mach Number Flow interface. The diffuser is transonic in the sense that the flow at the inlet is subsonic, but due to the contraction and the low outlet pressure, the flow ... Read More
