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.
Grain compaction is the process by which granular material is placed in a container and compressed with an external pressure. It can be used to increase the packing density and alter the mechanical and thermal properties of the resultant samples, and it is thus a crucial step in many ... Read More
A classic way of estimating pi is by using the Monte Carlo method. This involves randomly placing points inside a square and counting how many lie within a circle inscribed in the square. The ratio of points inside the circle to the number of points in total can be used to approximate ... Read More
Surface plasmon polariton (SPP) as well as other types of surface electromagnetic waves is of great interest due to unique physical properties and application potentials. The models here demonstrate how to simulate SPP propagation and its frequency-momentum dispersion relation. The ... Read More
Electrical cables, also called transmission lines, are used everywhere in the modern world to transmit both power and data. These cables carry electromagnetic energy, but instead of dealing with the full complexity of the electromagnetic fields, they are more commonly classified ... Read More
This model shows how to model a simple Shockley diode— a four-layer PNPN semiconductor device. The Shockley diode is also named as thyristor. In this model, the Analytic Doping Model node is utilized to define the doping profiles for each domain. A time-dependent study is employed to ... Read More
This tutorial demonstrates how to create domains for modeling inside and outside of an imported CAD assembly. You will also learn how to use the defeaturing tools for deleting details from the imported geometry. Read More
This example exemplifies how curve fitting can be performed in COMSOL Multiphysics®, and how this can be applied to your modeling. A more detailed description of the phenomenon and the modeling process can be seen in the blog post "Curve Fitting of Experimental Data with COMSOL ... Read More
Creating irregular geometries can be a good solution, even the only option, for some types of applications. These files present a way to use a text file with material properties defined in coordinates to assign different materials even though there is only one regular domain. The same ... Read More
Usually limited to a specific region, corona discharges appear as a consistent luminosity. The attributes of steady glow corona discharges change depending on their polarity. Positive glow corona, also referred to as Hermstein's glow or ultra corona, presents a direct current (DC) aspect ... Read More
This file shows how to create a surface of an irregular shape based on text, image, or elevation data. This approach is best suited for data where the height (or elevation) is a function of x- and y-coordinates. The data is of the Matterhorn, a European mountain located in the Alps. In ... Read More
