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 provides a walkthrough on how to simulate the basic radiated emission of a printed circuit board and its immunity response from outside noise. First, when one of the microstrip lines is excited, the crosstalk to an adjacent printed line and the radiated field, through an ... Read More
This model demonstrates how to simulate the propagation of guided waves in a dielectric S-bent optical waveguide. The model demonstrates that the phase approximation, required by the Electromagnetic Waves, Beam Envelopes interface, can be numerically calculated by solving an additional ... Read More
A distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) is a periodic structure formed from alternating dielectric layers that can be used to achieve nearly total reflection within a range of frequencies, with minimal losses. In this tutorial a Bragg reflector is modeled with a central wavelength of 550[nm] ... Read More
An evanescent mode cavity filter can be realized by adding a structure inside of the cavity. This structure changes the resonant frequency lower than the dominant mode of the unfilled cavity. A piezo actuator is used to control the size of a small air gap which provides the tunability of ... Read More
Electrical components in wireless communication systems are designed to be small and light for portability and productivity while maintaining decent performance and efficiency. Antennas are essential components in mobile devices and are required to fit in the limited space allowed by ... Read More
Developments in the last decade have made circuit quantum electrodynamics (cQED) the leading architecture for quantum computation. cQED is the solid-state version of cavity QED, which studies the basic light-matter interactions at the quantum level. This model examines one of the main ... Read More
This example demonstrates how to optimize the thickness of a microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) mirror coating material for maximum reflectivity. To reduce the simulation time, a Layered Impedance Boundary Condition is used to model the thin coating material on top of the metallic ... Read More
An Electromagnetic Band Gap (EBG) structure can be used to increase the isolation between antennas close to each other. The decoupling effect is not only a function of frequency but also polarization and coupling-plane configuration. When designing an EBG structure, one needs to make ... Read More
Microstrip filters can be fabricated directly on a printed circuit board (PCB) with a microstrip line going from the input to the output. Along the microstrip line there are a number of stubs of certain lengths and widths. The design of the filter involves choosing the impedance of the ... Read More
Frequency-selective surfaces (FSS) are periodic structures with a bandpass or a bandstop frequency response. This model shows that only signals around the center frequency can pass through the periodic complementary split ring resonator layer. Read More
