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.
When computing ray intensity in 2D axisymmetric models, the wavefront associated with the propagating ray is treated as a spherical or ellipsoidal wave, instead of a cylindrical wave. This tutorial example illustrates how to set up several important features using the Ray Acoustics ... Read More
Diesel particulate filters (DPFs) are designed to remove and filter soot (diesel particles) from the exhaust of diesel engine vehicles. The filters in such systems are typically structured with long, air-filled channels surrounded by a porous medium that retains the soot. Although the ... Read More
This version of the balloon inflation example demonstrates how the Shell and Membrane interfaces can be used to model thin structures made of hyperelastic materials. The example is identical to the Model Library model 'Inflation of a spherical rubber balloon', except that the Membrane ... Read More
This is a small 2D demonstration model that couples the Linearized Navier-Stokes, Frequency Domain, Solid Mechanics, and Turbulent Flow (k-epsilon) physics interfaces to model the vibrations of a plate located in a 2D viscous parallel plate flow. This type of model is used to model fluid ... Read More
The problem of a plane wave scattering off a cylinder-shaped object suggests the use of the 2D axisymmetric formulation. This can save computation time and reduce the memory usage compared to the model in 3D space. This example demonstrates the use of the built-in plane wave expansion ... Read More
This tutorial investigates the acoustic properties of a porous layer made of glass wool. The porous material has transverse isotropic properties and is modeled with the full anisotropic poroelastic material model. Read More
This app demonstrates: Light theme This app allows you to evaluate cross-section data for a wide range of American and European standard beams. Given a set of forces and moments acting on the section, you can also compute a detailed stress distribution. Calculated cross-section data ... Read More
In his example, the lowest natural frequency of a 3D bracket are maximized using shape optimization. Read More
This model demonstrates how to use the Interior Contact feature to model the contact pressure at a bolted joint connecting two copper busbars. The AC current flowing through the assembly is induced to flow close to the outside boundaries of the conductors, but the contact resistance is ... Read More
Cross-coupled forces present in a hydrodynamic bearing often act as a negative damping in a rotor. Near the critical speed, this may lead to uncontrolled vibration of the turbocharger causing a risk of bearing failure. In this example, the influence of the cross-coupling forces on the ... Read More
