Structural and Fatigue Analysis of a Car Wheel Rim
This example shows two structural analyses of a car wheel rim.
Firstly, the parametric solver is used to simulate a varying load along the boundary of the rim. The model solves for both the anti-symmetric and symmetric load cases. The two solutions...
Emulsions consist of small liquid droplets immersed in an immiscible liquid and widely occur in the production of food, cosmetics, fine chemicals, and pharmaceutical products. The quality of the product is typically dependent on the size of the droplets....
This is a model exemplifying how fluid-structure interactions can be modeled using COMSOL Multiphysics. Viscous forces and the system’s pressure impose forces to the surface of a structure. The deformation in the soft structure is not small and the fluid...
In this model, continuous casting processing of a metal rod from melted to solid state is modeled.
The model describes the fluid and solid flow and heat transport, including the phase transfer from melt to solid. This phase change causes momentum changes,...
People that use piezoelectric transducers are interested in phased-array microphone, ultrasound equipment, ink-jet drop actuators, drug discovery, Sonar transducers, bio-imaging and acousto-bio-theraputics. Basically anyone who is trying to create sound...
When modeling boiling flows, the mass transfer across the phase boundary, as well as the absorption of latent heat as the liquid evaporates, needs to be accounted for.
Here, a liquid is initially at rest above a thin layer of vapor, where the temperature...
This model refers to a portion of the vascular system of a young child - the upper part of the aorta artery. The blood vessels are embedded in a biological tissue (the cardiac muscle) and, during the flow of blood, pressure is applied to the internal...
This model treats the free convection and heat transfer of a glass of cold water heated to room temperature. Initially, the glass and the water are at 5 °C and are then put on a table in a room at 25 °C.
The nonisothermal flow is coupled to heat transfer...
Snap hook fasteners, where a hook is inserted into a groove, are common in the automotive industry, for example in the control panel of a car.
To obtain the magnitude of the forces necessary to insert and remove the hook, this model solves a nonlinear...
In this model, you will study a part of a shell-and-tube heat exchanger, where hot water enters from above. The cooling medium flows through the tubes that, in this model, impose a constant temperature at the walls. Furthermore, the tubes are assumed...
