In this tutorial, the propagation of elastic waves in the ground after a seismic event is simulated using a 2D model. The effect of the ground surface topology on the wave propagation is illustrated when an ideal half space is modified with the presence of a small mountain. The model is ... 詳細を見る

Interfacial failure or delamination in a composite material can be simulated with a cohesive zone model (CZM). A key ingredient of a cohesive zone model is a traction-separation law that describes the softening in the cohesive zone near the delamination tip. This example shows the ... 詳細を見る

This conceptual example shows how to handle a transient contact problem with stick-slip friction transition. A soft hollow pipe subjected to gravity is released at the top of a halfpipe. The pipe motion varies between sliding and rolling, depending on its position in the halfpipe and its ... 詳細を見る

The S-N curve, also called the Wöhler curve, is one of the most popular methods for fatigue evaluation. The curve relates stress amplitude to the limiting fatigue life and can be obtained directly from a set of standard fatigue test. Many times our applications are subjected to ... 詳細を見る

Hydrogen embrittlement refers to the degradation of metal ductility due to the absorption of hydrogen. The metal becomes more brittle and thus cracks might initiate at lower stress levels. It is important to estimate hydrogen concentration and the speed at which it diffuses into the ... 詳細を見る

Fiber composites are widely used in industrial applications. Compared to more traditional metallic engineering materials, fiber composites often have superior specific stiffness and strength properties, and they are often more corrosion resistant. Also, properties like strength, ... 詳細を見る

This model studies the natural frequencies of a pre-tensioned string using the 2D Wire interface. This is an example of “stress stiffening”; in fact the transverse stiffness of wire elements is directly proportional to the tensile force. Strings made of piano wire have an extremely high ... 詳細を見る

This example simulates the separation of particles based on the size in a microchannel using the method of pinched flow fractionation. The microdevice has two inlets and multiple outlets where the velocity field of liquid flow is calculated using the Laminar Flow interface. Then the ... 詳細を見る

Concrete structures almost always contain reinforcements in the shape of steel bars ("rebars"). In COMSOL, rebars can be modeled either individually by adding a Truss interface to the Solid interface used for the concrete or using the Fiber subfeature to model their global effect. In ... 詳細を見る

This tutorial utilizes the Particle Beam feature to examine the performance of a high-precision spectrometer. An ion beam is subjected to electric and magnetic forces, and only a fraction of the incoming beam is transmitted to the detector. The Particle Counter feature is used to compute ... 詳細を見る
