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.
A Gaussian beam is incident on a 45-degree thin-film stack embedded in glass material prisms. The thin-film stack is designed from alternating high and low refractive index materials. The wave will be refracted at the Brewster angle at each internal interface. Thus, mainly p-polarized ... Read More
In the Vibration in an Induction Motor tutorial model, eddy currents are induced in the rotor by time-harmonic currents in the stator windings and rotation of the rotor. Induced currents in the rotor interact with the magnetic field that is produced by the coils to generate the driving ... Read More
FEM simulation can be used to obtain a SAW velocity and some related parameters (squared electromechanical coupling coefficient, reflectivity, etc.) for different typical configurations. Such parameters are input data for various analytical and semi-analytical methods of SAW device ... Read More
The Cathodic Protection Designer application is an example of how an application can be used to simplify the simulation process by featuring a way to import a generic CAD file with certain requirements. Using this app, the user can select each part of the geometry and set boundary ... Read More
In this model, a full transient analysis of a loudspeaker driver is performed, which allow the modeling of nonlinear effects. It extends the linear frequency domain analysis done in the Loudspeaker Driver tutorial model. The analysis accounts for nonlinear behavior of the soft iron in ... Read More
Planar photonic waveguides in silica (SiO2) have great potential for use in wavelength routing applications. The major problem with this type of waveguide is birefringence. Anisotropic refractive indices result in fundamental mode splitting and pulse broadening. The goal is to minimize ... Read More
A Gaussian beam is launched into BK-7 optical glass. The material has an intensity-dependent refractive index. At the center of the beam, the refractive index is the largest. The induced refractive index profile counteracts diffraction and actually focuses the beam. Self-focusing is ... Read More
This model demonstrates how to perform simulations of an absorbing bandstop color filter, based on a hexagonal array of holes in a thin aluminum layer. The structure is hexagonally periodic but this example also shows how to set the model up as rectangularly periodic. Read More
A waveguide filter is designed using shape optimization by moving and scaling rectangles in the geometry. The irises of the initial geometry are optimized to ensure good bandpass response and out-of-band rejection, while maintaining the double mirror symmetry. Read More
