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.
One of the possible formats when working with scanned data is images for the slices of an MRI or CT scan. This is an example with images from the cross sections of the different levels of a human head. In short, the procedure includes creating curve objects of each of the images using ... Read More
This model computes the fundamental eigenfrequency and eigenmode for a tuning fork that is synchronized from SOLIDWORKS® via the LiveLink™ interface. The length of the fork is then optimized so that the tuning fork sounds the note A, 440 Hz. Read More
This example shows how to set up an ionic polymer-metal composite (IPMC) as an actuator for a robotic manta ray. Two IPCM beams are integrated into the fin and can be controlled independently. The chemomechanical effect is achieved with the Shrinkage and Swelling multiphysics ... Read More
This model, dealing with the current and potential distribution around one pair of electrodes, demonstrates how to synchronize and modify geometry in SOLIDWORKS® by using the LiveLink™ interface with a parametric sweep. Read More
You can use the Moving Mesh or the Deformed Geometry interface to implement wrapping of a CAD part around one axis. This model demonstrates both how to implement this wrapping, as well as how to subsequently mesh the surrounding volume around the deformed part. A more detailed ... Read More
Switched reluctance motors work on the principle of reluctance torque. The stator and rotor will interact to minimize the reluctance for the flux path. This application simulates the behavior of the motor when the stator winding is excited with a step voltage and when the rotor is at a ... Read More
This model demonstrates how to use a space-time formulation to optimize a heating profile over time. Get an overview in the accompanying blog post Equation-Based Modeling with a Space-Time Discretization. Read More
Example for a geometry sequence to create a ship hull using Loft. The different cross sections are defined using Dimensions and Constraints. Read More
This model demonstrates how to create a rotated helix geometry, i.e., a helix that is winded to form a torus. This is done sweeping a circle along a parametric curve. The radius of the torus and the radius of the coil are given as parameters as well as the number of windings of the coil. Read More
This model analyzes Joule heating and thermal expansion in a bond wire in an LED. Its purpose is to estimate the temperature increase and the resulting mechanical stresses in the bond wire due to thermal expansion. The magnitude of these stresses can be used to assess the risk of fatigue ... Read More
