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.
Periodic microstructures are frequently found in composite materials, metallic foams, and sandwich structures. They can be described by a unit cell repeated along the three Cartesian directions. This app computes homogenized material properties of various periodic microstructures and ... Read More
This tutorial simulates the turn-off transient (reverse recovery) of a simple PIN diode with an inductive load, loosely based on the book "Fundamentals of Power Semiconductor Devices" by B. J. Baliga (p. 256, 2008 edition). Unlike the book, which assumes an initial constant current ramp ... Read More
This tutorial example is kindly provided by Dr. James Ransley at Veryst Engineering, LLC. This model continues from the base model “A Micromachined Comb-Drive Tuning Fork Rate Gyroscope”, which is also provided by Dr. Ransley. The model demonstrates how to accurately compute the effects ... Read More
This model studies the heat conduction in a building structure separating two floors from the external environment. Four materials with distinct thermal conductivities k compose the structure. The exterior and interior boundaries are facing environments respectively at 0°C and 20°C. The ... Read More
During the design of a building, environmental issues have gained considerable influence in the entire project. One of the first concerns is to improve thermal performances. In this process, simulation software are key tools to model thermal losses and performances in the building. The ... Read More

This model example shows how to model nonlinear propagation of a cylindrical wave using the Nonlinear Pressure Acoustics, Time Explicit physics interface available in Acoustics Module of COMSOL Multiphysics. The interface implements the system of nonlinear acoustic equations in the form ... Read More
This model shows how to combine different types of material nonlinearity, such as creep and elastoplasticity. In this specific example you will perform a stress and nonlinear strain analysis on a thick cylinder under a nonproportional loading: an initial temperature increase followed by ... Read More
The incompressible boundary layer on a flat plate in the absence of a pressure gradient is usually referred to as the Blasius boundary layer. The steady, laminar boundary layer developing downstream of the leading edge eventually becomes unstable to Tollmien-Schlichting waves and finally ... Read More
