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.
Multiscale modeling is a challenging issue in modern simulation. This occurs when there are vastly different scales in the same model. For example, your cell phone is approximately 10 cm, yet it receives GPS information from satellites 20,000 km away. In these models we examine several ... Read More
This application demonstrates how the Application Builder in the COMSOL Multiphysics® software can be used to make advanced cable modeling available to a general audience. At its core is a multiphysics model based on the technology introduced in the Cable Tutorial Series. The ... Read More
These models illustrate some important topics when modeling buckling imperfection. The Euler 2 Buckling Imperfection model shows a simple case with a cantilever beam buckling under compression. Three different buckling modes are combined as initial imperfections. The other model, ... Read More
This model shows one approach for obtaining a broadband impulse response by combining ray-tracing and finite element methods. The combination is done all within COMSOL® and uses idealized filters. In this example, the simulation results are further compared to an analytical solution ... Read More
The model features the optimization of the geometry of a complex-shaped coil similar to those for induction heating applications. The geometry if fully built and parametrized in COMSOL Multiphysics (taking advantage of Geometry Parts; geometrical construction requires Design Module). The ... Read More
This example model consists of a two-hot-arm thermal actuator made of polysilicon. The actuator is activated through thermal expansion. The temperature increase required to deform the arms, and thus displace the actuator, is obtained through Joule heating (resistive heating). The greater ... Read More
This is a template MPH-file containing the physics interfaces and the parameterized geometry for the model Electrical Heating in a Busbar. Read More
This model computes the temperature distribution in a battery pack that is in use at a specified power. The current is controlled in Simulink® to ensure constant power during usage. Read More
A magnetic brake consists of a permanent magnet, which induces currents in a rotating copper disk. The resulting eddy currents interact with the magnetic flux to produce Lorentz forces and subsequently a braking torque. The disk angular velocity is computed using Simulink®. Read More
This model illustrates the charge/discharge control of a Lithium-Ion battery in a Simulink® simulation. Read More
