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.
In this example, the Bergstrom–Bischoff material model is used to model the temperature and strain dependent behavior of High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) used, for example, to make liners for damaged pipes in oil and gas applications, or to make type IV hydrogen storage vessels for fuel ...

This model demonstrates how the Free Shape Boundary feature can be used to perform shape optimization on a design found with topology optimization. The model uses the same objective and constraint as the original, which results in a slightly higher stiffness for the same mass. Read More
This app demonstrates the following: Navigation system using toggle buttons in the ribbon and Back/Forward buttons in the settings window Selecting predefined or user-defined materials Using a table for input of geometry objects The app simulates a rotor bearing system consisting of ... Read More
This conceptual example shows how to calculate critical points in models with contact. The model consists of a block modeled with the Solid Mechanics interface pressing on an arch modeled with the Shell interface. The contact problem is solved using the augmented Lagrangian method. The ... Read More
Failure of reinforced concrete structures involves advanced material behavior and interaction between materials. This example demonstrates how to model various stages of the failure of a reinforced concrete beam. The material model includes a coupled damage-plasticity model for the ... Read More
This benchmark model simulates a GaAs nanowire using the self-consistent Schrödinger-Poisson theory to compute the electron density and the confining potential profiles. The predefined Schrödinger-Poisson multiphysics coupling feature is combined with the dedicated Schrödinger-Poisson ... Read More
