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.
The bidirectional formulation of the Beam Envelopes interface can be used not only for counter-propagating wave simulations but also for waves propagating to up to two directions. In this model, an almost collimated Gaussian beam is excited at the left boundary and exhibits total ... Read More
Electromagnetic waves that are confined to propagate along a surface, such as surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs), are of great research interest due to their potential applications in nanoscale manipulation of light. This model demonstrates how to set up a simulation of the propagation ... Read More
We have all noticed the Doppler effect when an ambulance passes by with its sirens blaring. The siren’s pitch suddenly drops the moment the ambulance starts moving away from you. Another effect you can notice is how the siren’s sound is very loud when nearby, but as soon as the ... Read More
Classical MHD benchmark problem was solved analytically by J. Hartmann. He considered laminar incompressible flow between two planes (in planar duct) in transversal imposed magnetic field under next assumptions: * fully developed flow (far from inlet) * fluid properties are constant * ... Read More
Linear motors are used in many applications in need of translational motion. Typical characteristics of linear motor designs are high precision or quick acceleration. This model investigates a synchronous motor with three-phase winding on the stationary part and permanent magnets on the ... Read More
This is the transient model of a single phase E-core transformer using a homogenized approach for the multi-turn primary and secondary coils. The model includes the effect of magnetic saturation (B–H curve) in the core and shows how to connect the transformer model to the external ... Read More
This is a model of a moving-coil loudspeaker where a lumped parameter analogy represents the behavior of the electrical and mechanical speaker components. The Thiele-Small parameters (small-signal parameters) serve as input to the lumped model, which is represented by an Electric Circuit ... Read More
A stent is a wire-mesh tube used to open a coronary artery during angioplasty, a process for the removal or compression of plaque. Their design is of significance for percutaneous transluminal angioplasty with stenting. During this procedure, a stent is deployed into the blood vessel by ... Read More
This model shows how to simulate carburization and quenching of a steel gear. Diffusion of carbon into the surface of the gear affects the onset of martensitic transformation. Residual stresses are computed, and it is shown that high residual compressive stresses appear at the root of ... Read More
This model illustrates the operation of a swashplate mechanism used in helicopters to translate the input of helicopter flight control into the motion of the rotor blades, and hence controls the orientation of the rotor blades. In this model, the rotor blades are modeled as either rigid ... Read More
