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.
When a droplet is placed on a substrate on which surface acoustic waves (SAWs) are traveling, the energy of the SAWs is transferred into the droplet to form an acoustic field. The transferred energy is attenuated and generates a streaming flow. This type of streaming enables contactless ... Read More
An established method for benchmarking the atmospheric corrosion resistance of materials is the use of accelerated corrosion tests (ACT) performed in climate chambers. The main purpose of the ACTs is to make reliable and fast predictions of the long time behavior. The tests expose ... 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
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
In this example, the External Stress feature in the Solid Mechanics interface is used to provide the material model with the nonsymmetric stress required in the design of an elastic invisibility cloak. The cloak is a domain with special material properties aimed at shielding a region of ... Read More
This model uses the Semiconductor and RF modules to describe a photoconductive antenna (PCA). A laser pulse is applied on the surface of undoped LT-GaAs to generate electron-hole-pairs, which move under the influence of an external E-field creating a transient electric current pulse. ... Read More
The triaxial test is one of the most common tests used in laboratory soil testing. The soil sample is normally placed inside a rubber membrane and then compressed maintaining a radial pressure. In this model, a vertical displacement and a confinement pressure are applied on the sample ... Read More
The common electroanalytical method of exhaustive amperometric detection in a microscopic thin layer is modelled as a 1D-symmetric diffusion problem. The simulated result agrees with the analytical Cottrell equation at short times, and deviates as expected at long times when the ... Read More
It is possible to engineer the structure of materials such that both the permittivity and permeability are negative. Such materials are realized by engineering a periodic structure with features comparable in scale to the wavelength. It is possible to model both the individual unit cells ... Read More
In this example, monotonic and cyclic triaxial tests are simulated using the Hardening Soil Small Strain material model. The model captures the effects of small strain stiffness and hysteresis under cyclic loading. The stress-strain relationship matches the hyperbolic curve reported in ... Read More
