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.
Capacitively coupled RF discharges can operate in two distinct regimes depending on the discharge power. In the low power regime, known as the alpha regime, the electric field oscillation is responsible to heat and create electrons. In the high power regime, known as gamma regime, the ... Read More
In mode analysis it is usually the primary goal to find a propagation constant. This quantity is often, but not always, real valued; if the analysis involves some lossy part, such as a nonzero conductivity or an open boundary, the eigenvalue is complex. In such situations, the real and ... Read More
This tutorial minimizes the mass of a bracket that is synchronized from Solid Edge® via the LiveLink™ interface. There are limits both for the lowest natural frequency, and for the maximum stress in a static load case. The size and position for a number of geometrical features ... Read More
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
Electrochemical codeposition is a common low-cost method for producing metal alloys. This tutorial model demonstrates electrodeposition of a nickel (Ni)–phosphorous (P) alloy. The model accounts for charge and mass transport of a multitude of species along with multiple electrode ... 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
Crystallization is a key separation process in e.g. pharmaceuticals production. It is the process by which a chemical species is separated from solution by forming a crystal. To achieve the required product properties, control over the crystal particle size distribution is necessary. ... Read More
This application shows how mass transfer out from a thin 3D domain can be approximated using a 2D component with the domain feature Out-of-Plane Flux. This feature is useful when the concentration gradient in the out-of-plane direction (along the thickness) is small, and decreasing the ... Read More
In this example, wrinkling is studied in a cylindrical membrane of nonuniform thickness under axial and pressure loading. The membrane is modeled as an incompressible Mooney–Rivlin material. During axial stretching, certain portions of the membrane undergo wrinkling; however, the ... Read More
A fractal is a mathematical form showing self-repeating patterns. By virtue of its geometrical properties, a fractal structure can generate multiple resonances in RF applications. This antenna model uses a 3rd order Sierpinski triangle and the calculated S-parameters shows good input ... Read More
