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.
Free-surface calculations in the predefined flow interfaces are currently limited to time-dependent studies when using the built-in boundary conditions. Here, a stationary formulation following Romero et al. [1] is implemented using equation contributions. The attached slides describe ... Read More
This example exemplifies how to optimize the design of a capacitor through optimization. A more detailed description of the phenomenon and the modeling process can be seen in the blog post "Changing the Dimensions of a Model Using Shape Optimization". Read More
This tutorial demonstrates how to model a Silicon-on-Insulator (SoI) Modulator – a well-known optics device configuration that takes advantage of the free-carrier plasma dispersion effect and allows for the electrical control of the optical waveguide properties. The simulation couples ... Read More
Learn how to repair, edit, and combine imported surface meshes in COMSOL Multiphysics®. This model demonstrates how to cut out a part of the upper jaw, remove elements from the mesh, and combine the meshes of the teeth and bone. To learn more about how this model is set up, see ... Read More
This example exemplifies how to model applications using the Events Interface where a thermostat is simulated. A more detailed description of the phenomenon and the modeling process can be seen in the blog post "Implementing a Thermostat with the Events Interface". Read More
This demonstration app will fit a surface through a set of points using radial basis functions and will write out a COMSOL-format file of a smooth NURBS surface that passes through all of the points. The function describing the surface can also be written to a text file. The point data ... Read More
In semiconductor manufacturing, vacuum chucks are used to rapidly and contamination-free adsorb and secure wafers before processes such as transfer, lithography, and inspection. Traditional empirical design makes it difficult to quantify the effects of groove shape, size, distribution, ... Read More
At the bottom of an oil well, the pressure and temperature can differ significantly from those at the surface. As the oil mixture flows upward and the pressure decreases, phase changes may occur. At the wellbore inlet, the mixture may already contain both liquid and gas phases. ... Read More
This example shows how to image the interior permittivity of a box by applying a potential difference on the boundaries of the box. The result is a surface charge density that depends on the permittivity of the medium inside the box. Read about this tutorial model in our blog post "The ... Read More
A small building block of integrated photonics, i.e., a Silicon-on-Insulator taper, is considered. For a larger system design, it might be useful to determine the phase delay such a device introduces. Here, we showcase the layout needed to do it in COMSOL, including a proper Port ... Read More
