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 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
This is an example of optimal control, where the input heating power to a rod is optimized to give a certain temperature on the outside of the rod. This is where the maximum water temperature occurs, while the minimum occurs at the center. Therefore this problem corresponds to the ... Read More

This model demonstrates how to design a beam without low Eigenfrequencies by combining the Density Model feature in the Topology Optimization interface with the Stationary Then Eigenfrequency study step. Read More
This app demonstrates the following: Importing measured data from a text file or use built-in functionality for data generation Automatically change solver options based on the input Dynamically update the equation display The app can be used to estimate parameters in models without ... Read More
This model demonstrates how to use the Polynomial Shell feature to increase the lowest Eigenfrequency of a shell by deforming its shape. Read More
Topology optimization for low volume fractions in 3D follows the same methodology as in 2D for medium volume fractions. The only difference is the need for iterative solvers. This model demonstrates topology optimization of a drone for a volume fraction of 12.5 %, while considering two ... Read More
This example solves the problem of finding the optimal thickness profile of a flywheel, so that the moment of inertia is maximized without increasing the mass or the maximum stress in the flywheel. Read More
Commercial heat exchangers often feature a complex design. It is significantly easier to build a design with new CAD parameters than to build designs with novel topologies. This model demonstrate how to optimize the size and position of the tubes in a tube and shell heat exchanger. It is ... Read More
