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.
MEMS scanning mirrors are a type of MEMS device that realizes optical path control by controlling mirror torsion through a microdriver. The torsion can be single axis or double axis. MEMS scanning mirrors are widely used in laser projection, laser radar, laser processing, and other ... 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 demonstrates the use of boundary element method in the Electromagnetic Waves, Boundary Element interface to model an optical Yagi-Uda antenna. The antenna is driven by an electrical point dipole, which is implemented through the background field. The field distribution around ... Read More
This tutorial model presents a study of a double-headed streamer in nitrogen at atmospheric pressure. An initial seed of electrons is placed between two electrodes which apply an initial electric field of 52 kV/cm to the gas. A negative and positive streamer propagate toward the ... Read More
This example shows how to set up a piezoelectric transducer problem following the work of Y. Kagawa and T. Yamabuchi. The composite piezoelectric ultrasonic transducer has a cylindrical geometry that consists of a piezoceramic layer, two aluminum layers, and two adhesive layers. 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
Ferroelectric materials exhibit nonlinear polarization behavior such as hysteresis and saturation at large applied electric fields. Many piezoelectric materials are ferroelectric. This model analyzes a simple actuator made of PZT piezoelectric ceramic material, which is subjected to ... Read More
The dielectric shielding boundary condition is meant to approximate a thin layer of material with high relative permittivity compared to its surroundings. This boundary condition is available for electrostatic field modeling. This example compares the dielectric shielding boundary ... Read More
One-sided magnets are magnets designed to have both magnetic poles emerging from the same side of the magnet. This results in the magnetic flux being concentrated on one side of the magnet. These kinds of magnets are found in many applications from the common fridge magnet to particle ... Read More
The model utilizes a dedicated mesh refinement study, Frequency Domain RF Adaptive Mesh, which dynamically refines the mesh in the region of interest. For the Application Library model Microstrip Patch Antenna, it increases the mesh resolution around areas with high field variations. The ... Read More
