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 the wrinkling phenomenon in a thin sheet stretched uniaxially. The modified membrane theory, which incorporates the wrinkling model, ensures noncompressive principal stresses in the wrinkled region. The analytical results are compared to the numerical results. Read More
This tutorial demonstrates a full electro-vibroacoustic analysis of a conceptual electrostatic speaker driver, composed of thin conducting plastic diaphragm residing between two perforated metal sheets called grids or stators. When an audio signal is applied to the grids (out of phase), ... Read More
This suite of examples illustrate the modeling of selective NO reduction, that occurs as flue gases pass through the channels of a monolithic reactor in the exhaust system of a motored vehicle. The simulations are aimed at finding the optimal dosing of NH3, the reactant that serves as ... Read More
When simulations are involved in the development of mobile devices, consumer electronics, hearing aids, or headsets, it is necessary to consider how the transducers interact with the rest of the system. Here, we show an analysis of the interaction between a vibration isolation mounting ... Read More
Active magnetic bearings are often used for controlling the vibration level in mechanical systems. In this example, a motor driven rotor system in which the speed of the system is gradually increased is considered. The system vibrates due to existing imbalances. As the rotor speed ... Read More
Cryer's problem is a three-dimensional consolidation benchmark. A porous sphere is subjected to a uniform boundary pressure. The pore pressure at the center of the sphere rises due to the Mandel-Cryer effect that is captured by a two-way coupling between Darcy's law and solid mechanics. Read More
This small tutorial model shows how to set up a model with a solid mechanics and a pressure acoustics domain including a common perfectly matched layer (PML). The PML is used to model an open or infinite domain for both the elastic waves and the pressure waves. Three configurations of ... Read More
This model analyses the noise generated by an electric motor during its operation at different speeds of rotation. The type of electric motor analyzed, a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) uses permanent magnets in the rotor and a variable frequency current traveling through the ... Read More
This model demonstrates topology optimization for a problem involving acoustic-structure interaction for a sound partition problem. The objective being to reduce sound transmission for a fixed solid material fraction. The design domain is modeled with a mixed formulation using the Solid ... Read More
This tutorial example of a comb drive tuning fork gyroscope is kindly provided by Dr. James Ransley at Veryst Engineering, LLC. The model demonstrates fully parameterized geometry, extensive use of selection features, implementation of analytic formulas for the electromechanical forces ... Read More
