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.
Users of consumer electronics with radiating devices are exposed to radio frequency (RF) emission. The amount of exposure is defined as the specific absorption rate (SAR). That is, the SAR value represents the radio frequency (RF) energy rate absorbed by a body. This model computes local ... Read More
An anechoic chamber is used to measure antenna characterization, electromagnetic interference (EMI), and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). Within the chamber are absorbers that are configured with an array of pyramidal objects that steer the propagating incident field onto their ... Read More
A demonstration of topology optimization using the Structural Mechanics Module and the Optimization Module. The classical MBB beam is solved in 2D using a Helmholtz filter and Solid Isotropic Material Penalization (SIMP) technique to recast the original combinatorial optimization problem ... Read More
A circular metal bar is subjected to uniaxial tension. As an effect, large plastic strains develop. The material is elastoplastic with nonlinear isotropic hardening. As the elongation is increased, the decrease in radius becomes strongly nonuniform, so called "necking". The development ... Read More
This is a benchmark model for flexible multibody dynamics. This model simulates the dynamic behavior of a planar four-bar mechanism when one of the joints has a defect. The out-of-plane motion in the mechanism, caused by the defect in the joint, is compared with the results from the ... Read More
Photonic crystal devices are periodic structures of alternating layers of materials with different refractive indices. Waveguides that are confined inside of a photonic crystal can have very sharp low-loss bends, which may enable an increase in integration density of several orders of ... Read More
This example uses the Shallow Water equations to model the impact of a water wave on a column. A body of water with a height of 0.3 meters is initially contained behind a gate. At the start of the simulation, the gate is suddenly released and the body of water forms a wave moving toward ... Read More
In this tutorial you will learn how to use selections when creating the parametric geometry for the analysis of a steam reformer, and set up the selections needed for the physics definitions. The multiphysics analysis of the steam reformer is described in the model Steam Reformer found ... Read More
Prevent shaking windows and enhance the sound experience by careful positioning of the loudspeakers in your room. This tutorial analyzes the low frequency response of a living room to the woofer units of two loudspeakers, and solves for the eigenfrequencies of the room. The room geometry ... Read More
In this model, compute the propagating modes in the chamber of an automotive muffler. The geometry is a cross-section of the chamber in the Absorptive Muffler example. The model’s purpose is to study the shape of the propagating modes and to find their cut-off frequencies. As discussed ... Read More
