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 model simulates the propagation of a positive streamer in a weak electric field where the process of photoionization is essential to provide seed electrons at the front of the streamer head. The simulated electric field and electron density as a function of time agree well with that ... Read More
This tutorial demonstrates how to model ultrasound imaging in human tissue using an imaging probe composed of piezoelectric arrays that generate steered and focused beams. Simulating this process requires a transient multiphysics model to accurately capture sound generation, propagation, ... Read More
Freefrom optics has generated renewed interest due to advances in fabrication and manufacturing technology. In this Application Library example, we are going to look at a specific design called the Alvarez lens where two complementary conic surfaces are shifted laterally with respect to ... Read More
This model is based on the Metasurface Beam Deflector model. The performance is improved using shape optimization by allowing both the radii and the position of the individual pillars to change. Read More
This model demonstrates an efficient approach to simulating a thin, spherical, large radome using a 2D axisymmetric formulation with cubic discretization. The axisymmetric method captures full 3D behavior for azimuthally symmetric geometries at only a fraction of the computational cost. ... Read More
This example studies heat transfer in a square column. Cold and hot temperature conditions are applied to the boundaries. Due to the symmetry of the problem, the geometry is simplified to half of the square. The temperature field is compared with the analytic data. This example ... Read More
This model simulates the propagation of a double-headed streamer in nitrogen at atmospheric pressure. Initially, electron-positive ion clusters were introduced between two parallel electrodes, subjecting the gas to a strong background electric field of 52 kV/cm. Subsequently, both the ... Read More
In this model a plane wave with circular polarization is reflected off an interface between air and glass. The model demonstrates three different ways of defining this problem. The first part shows how to define user-defined port mode fields. The second part uses the predefined circular ... Read More
This tutorial model demonstrates the use of the multiphysics coupling feature Thermal Connection, Layered Shell, Edges. In this model, three layered shells are connected to heat domains by edges at difference locations related to the heat domains. The results obtained with the Heat ... Read More
This example exemplifies how to model the Beer-Lambert law using the core functionality of COMSOL Multiphysics. A more detailed description of the phenomenon and the modeling process can be seen in the blog post "Modeling Laser-Material Interactions with the Beer-Lambert Law". Read More
