A highly simplified pedestrian bridge is for simplicity imagined to consists of a concrete slab on supported by three I-beams. The design is to be evaluated for peak acceleration due to walking. The model analyzes uncertainty in peak acceleration due to some material damping properties ... Read More
In this model, a linear magnetic gear system with a gear ratio of 11:4 is modeled. The liner magnetic gear is assumed to be infinitely long with the modular structure that is repeating on either side. Only a single modular section is modeled by using the customized linear periodic ... Read More
This model computes an electromagnetic-heated busbar with surface-to-surface radiation and compares the results with the busbar model without radiation. The surface emissivity of copper is varied between 0.1 (blank material), 0.3 (partially oxidized), and 0.7 (heavily oxidized). A more ... Read More
Fractals exhibit self-similarity at different scales and are often found in nature. Fractal noise is a technique used to emulate organic-looking textures, such as to achieve realistic visualizations of various materials in COMSOL Multiphysics®. These models demonstrate how to ... Read More
The design of overhead insulator involves the evaluation of maximum electric field intensity in particular regions like metal ends, weather shed and corona rings. The metal surfaces will have corona inception once the electric field intensity reaches the threshold level. So, the design ... Read More
The purpose of this model is to demonstrate pure rolling of a rigid wheel when given an initial forward velocity together with a prescribed lean about this direction. It is assumed that the the rolling motion of the wheel is not affected by contact such that all three components of the ... Read More
This example exemplifies the basics in how to optimize shapes using COMSOL Multiphysics®. A more detailed description of the phenomenon and the modeling process can be seen in the blog post "Designing New Structures with Shape Optimization". Read More
This example exemplifies how to model the impedance of a waveguide of varying cross sectional area. A more detailed description of the phenomenon and the modeling process can be seen in the blog post "Computing the Impedance of a Corrugated Waveguide". Read More
This model demonstrates the transient heating of a sample of material with a time- and space-varying heat load. Issues of solution accuracy with respect to mesh and solver tolerance can be quickly studied on this model. Learn more about this model in the accompanying blog post: "Intro to ... Read More
In this model, we use the Bioheat Transfer interface to solve the Pennes bioheat transfer equation. The problem is in 1D and formulated to be dimensionless. The results are compared against analytical solutions derived in a journal paper (Ref. 1). A mesh convergence study shows that the ... Read More
