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 tutorial simulates a standard test and benchmark model for nonreflecting conditions and sponge layers for linearized Euler-like systems. It involves the propagation of a transient Gaussian pulse in a 2D uniform flow. The Convected Wave Equation, Time Explicit interface solves the ... Read More
A square airbag is inflated using constant air pressure. In some regions of the airbag the material wrinkles during inflation, as negative principal stresses develop. The wrinkling membrane model within the tension field theory gives a correct description of the stress distribution and ... Read More
In this example, a spring-loaded valve-opening mechanism consisting of a rocker arm and a radial cam is studied. All of the system components are modeled as rigid and are connected through prismatic, hinge, and slot joints. The cam-follower connection as well as other joint connections ... Read More
Solid-state batteries (SSB) are a promising technology that could suffer from internal mechanical stresses due to the growth and shrinkage of the electrodes within all-solid components. With this model, the charge-discharge cycling of an SSB is simulated with a focus on the interaction ... Read More
A benchmark model for the fatigue module. A cylindrical test is subjected to non-proportional loading. Three stress based models: Findley, Matake, Normal stress, are compared to analytical values and to each other. The non-smooth behavior of the Matake model is captured and discussed. Read More
Roll forming processes are widely used in metal processing, battery electrode production and manufacturing processes. The model demonstrates the process of roll forming, where a workpiece is pressed after passing through a pair of rollers. The workpiece is carried between rollers by ... Read More
Anisotropic hyperelastic materials are used for modeling collagenous soft tissue in arterial walls. The Arterial Wall Mechanics application describes a section of an artery based on the Holzapfel–Gasser-Ogden hyperelastic material model. In this example the dynamic behavior of the artery ...

Anechoic coatings are used on submarines to reduce sonar reflections. This model calculates the reflection, absorption, and transmission properties of an anechoic coating on a steel plate. The calculated results from this sub-model can be used in larger system scale models, for example, ... Read More
The Highly Accelerated Stress Test (HAST) is a testing technique to precipitate failure of electronic devices under elevated temperature and high humidity environment. This model demonstrates the structural analysis of a plastic encapsulated IGBT module under the HAST testing condition. ... Read More
This tutorial model shows a virtual test setup of a conference speaker. The speaker system consists of a loudspeaker as well as three microphones. The model instigates the loudspeaker sound radiation, feedback, as well as the ability of the system to detect sound (speech) emitted from a ... Read More
