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.
The ball grid array (BGA) technology is a surface-mount technology widely used in electronic packaging. Usually, there are two types of solder balls considered in the array, including the functional balls that are required for electric connections and the support balls that are used only ... Read More
This example illustrates how to perform eigenfrequency and static analyses of a ladder frame structure for a light truck. Important modeling strategies are described. For example, how to convert a solid geometry to a shell model, how to make different types of connections, and how to ... Read More
This is a benchmark model involving stick-slip friction of a ring rolling inside another ring. The displacement of the inner ring is computed and compared to the analytical result. This model also shows how to tackle friction dominated contact problem. Read More
A cable is a structural member which has stiffness only in its tangential direction, but virtually no bending stiffness. When supported only at its two ends it deflects under gravitational load forming a curve known as catenary. This example shows how to model components such as cables, ... Read More
The reliability of a bike frame can be estimated by analyzing the structural stress subjected to different load cases. This app leverages LiveLink™ for SOLIDWORKS® to interactively update the geometry while computing stress analyses. Using this app, you can easily test different ... Read More
This example presents a homogenized model of a corrugated sheet based on a unit cell approach. The numerically obtained equivalent stiffness matrices are compared with various analytical models. Two corrugation profiles, trapezoidal and round, are considered in this example. Read More
This benchmark studies the nonlinear deformation of a spherical cap subjected to point load at center using 2D axisymmetric Solid Mechanics and Shell interfaces. The results from the Shell interface are compared with Solid Mechanics interface as well as with analytical results given in ... Read More
This model shows a full vibroacoustic analysis of a loudspeaker including driver, cabinet, and stand. It lets you apply a nominal driving voltage and extract the resulting sound pressure level in the cabinet and in the outside room, as well as the deformation of the cabinet and driver, ... Read More
This example reproduces a NAFEMS benchmark in which a plate with an angle crack is subjected to tensile loading. The J-integral is calculated and the stress intensity factors for Mode I and Mode II are compared to the benchmark results for several crack angles. Read More
Interference fit is a technique used to join or fit one part over or around another part. The internal part is cooled, so that it shrinks, and is then fitted. Once the part heats up again and expands, a contact pressure builds up at the interface between the two parts. This type of ... Read More
