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 example demonstrates a simulation setup for exciting surface plasmon polaritons using Otto and Kretschmann configurations. The underlying mechanism is enabled by the interplay between total internal reflection and evanescent-wave coupling phenomena. It also calculates the ... Read More
A differential line is composed of two transmission lines excited by two out-of-phase signals. This configuration is known to be useful to enhance signal-to-noise ratio. This example shows how to set up the differential microstrip lines using TEM type ports. Read More
In this model, a microwave absorber is constructed from an infinite 2D array of pyramidal lossy structures. Pyramidal absorbers with radiation-absorbent material (RAM) are commonly used in anechoic chambers for electromagnetic wave measurements. Microwave absorption is modeled using a ... Read More
The study explores charge transport dynamics in polyethylene, a common solid dielectric insulation material. It employs a bipolar charge transport model to calculate the densities of electrons, holes, and their trapped counterparts. The simulation's outcomes for discharge current and ... Read More
This model illustrates the refraction of light while passing through an optical prism using s– and p–polarized incident Gaussian beams. The prism boundaries are coated with anti–reflection coatings. It also calculates the reflectance and transmittance to analyze the performance of anti ... Read More
A Mach-Zehnder modulator is used for controlling the amplitude of an optical wave. The input waveguide is split up into two waveguide interferometer arms. If a voltage is applied across one of the arms, a phase shift is induced for the wave passing through that arm. When the two arms are ... Read More
An electron gun must be able to draw a sufficient current and accelerate the electrons to the desired speed. The first part of an electron gun geometry presents unique design challenges because the emitted electron speeds are usually lowest there, and therefore the space charge density ... Read More
It is possible to shape the radiation pattern and steer the beam from an antenna array by controlling the relative phases and magnitudes of the input signal. This example shows how to design an active electronically scanned array (AESA) using arithmetic phase progression on each antenna ... Read More
Carbon corrosion is one of the important degradation mechanisms in a Polymer Electrolyte Membrane (PEM) fuel cells which predominantly occurs during start-up or shut down of the fuel cells. During carbon corrosion, carbon support to catalysts is compromised affecting the cell ... Read More
Two embedded optical waveguides in close proximity form a directional coupler. The cladding material is GaAs and the core material is ion-implanted GaAs. The waveguide is excited by the two first supermodes of the waveguide structure - the symmetric and antisymmetric modes. Two numeric ... Read More
