This tutorial model shows the setup of a 2D axisymmetric stress analysis, through contact, of a 3D threaded pipe fitting. The example involves synchronizing the 3D PTC Creo Parametric™ geometry and selections, which specify the faces in contact, with the 2D geometry in COMSOL ... 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
This example shows how to model secondary current distribution and electrode growth with a moving geometry. To avoid numerical instabilities, a seed layer is introduced in the initial geometry to obtain a right angle at the edge between the growing electrode and the insulator. Read More
In this example, the importance of including elastic deformations when analyzing heavily loaded fluid-film bearings is investigated. The structural parts are modeled using the Solid Mechanics interface, while the pressure in the lubricant is determined by the means of the Hydrodynamic ... Read More
This example models a split-and-recombine mixer channel in which a tracer fluid is introduced and mixed by multilamination. Diffusion is removed from the model using an extremely low diffusion coefficient so that any numerical diffusion can be studied in the lamination interfaces. The ... Read More
This model illustrates the refraction of light while passing through an optical prism using s– and p–polarized incident Gaussian beams. The prism boundaries are coated with anti–reflection coatings. It also calculates the reflectance and transmittance to analyze the performance of anti ... Read More
Electric impedance measurements are used for imaging and detection. Applications range from nondestructive testing and geophysical imaging to medical imaging. Several alternative techniques are shown to model such a system. One of them shows how to use conditional expressions to define ... Read More
This tutorial demonstrates how to integrate multiple Lumped Battery models into the Electrical Circuit interface. Two batteries are connected in series. Each battery is protected by a shunt resistances that is activated if the battery state-of-charge reaches below a certain threshold ... Read More
This model demonstrates the use of the Heat and Moisture Flow features for the simulation of superheated steam drying of a wood particle. A nonequilibrium formulation is used to compute the transport of the liquid water and vapor phases in the wood particle. Reference: Le, K. H., ... Read More
This example extends the corrosion protection system analysis of the single oil platform example by modeling the influence of multiple oil platforms placed in an array. The use of the Current Distribution on Edges, BEM interface significantly reduces the problem size and computational ... Read More
