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.
Alternating Current-Induced Corrosion
Corrosion induced due to alternating current (AC) is evident in the oil and gas industry, particularly when a pipeline is in close proximity to the high power transmission lines. A numerical model presented here first evaluates the effect of direct current (DC) applied potential on ... Read More
Combining Creep Material Models
This model illustrates how to combine together different Creep material models. Here a Norton–Bailey creep material (primary creep) is combined with a Norton creep material model (secondary creep). This model is a modification of the Model Library model Thermally Induced Creep. Read More
Dielectric Resonator Antenna
A dielectric resonator placed near a radiating element can be used to increase directivity and gain. Here, a block of quartz dielectric, with additional passive metallic antenna elements, is placed above a slot antenna. The fields in and around the antenna are solved for. The far field ... Read More
Cloaking of a Cylindrical Scatterer with Graphene (Wave Optics)
In this model, we introduce a cloaking method using an electrically tuned monolayer of graphene. We will show that when a cylindrical dielectric scatterer is covered in graphene, the scattering cross section is greatly reduced at the designated frequency, making it electromagnetically ... Read More
Magnetic Brake — LiveLink™ for Simulink® Simulation
A magnetic brake consists of a permanent magnet, which induces currents in a rotating copper disk. The resulting eddy currents interact with the magnetic flux to produce Lorentz forces and subsequently a braking torque. The disk angular velocity is computed using Simulink®. Read More
Transport in an Electrokinetic Valve
This application presents an example of pressure driven flow and electrophoresis in a 3D micro channel system. Researchers often use a device similar to the one in this model as an electrokinetic sample injector in biochips to obtain well-defined sample volumes of dissociated acids and ... Read More
Pacemaker Electrode
This model, dealing with the current and potential distribution around one pair of electrodes, demonstrates how to synchronize and modify geometry in Pro/ENGINEER by using the LiveLink interface. Read More
Inflation of a Spherical Rubber Balloon — Shell and Membrane Version
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
Model of an Argon/Oxygen Capacitively Coupled Plasma Reactor
This tutorial model solves for a one-dimensional capacitively coupled plasma reactor in a mixture of argon/oxygen. Important aspects and strategies for modeling electronegative discharges are discussed. Read More
Squeeze Film Between Rectangular Porous and Nonporous Plates
This example describes how to simulate the flow of a thin film of fluid in the gap between two rectangular plates, one of them with a porous facing, when the fluid is squeezed as a consequence of the relative motion between the plates. The model accounts for the ingress and egress of ... Read More
