Blood Vessel
This model refers to a portion of the vascular system of a young child - the upper part of the aorta artery. The blood vessels are embedded in a biological tissue (the cardiac muscle) and, during the flow of blood, pressure is applied to the internal surfaces producing deformation of the vessel wall...

Filling of a Capillary Channel
This example studies a narrow vertical cylinder placed on top of a reservoir filled with water. Because of wall adhesion and surface tension at the air/water interface, water rises through the channel.
Surface tension and wall adhesive forces are often used to transport fluid through microchannel...

Piezo-Acoustic Transducer
People that use piezoelectric transducers are interested in phased-array microphone, ultrasound equipment, ink-jet drop actuators, drug discovery, Sonar transducers, bio-imaging and acousto-bio-theraputics. Basically anyone who is trying to create sound in air or liquids turns to a version of this p...

Inkjet
This example demonstrates how to model the fluid flow from an inkjet, for instance, within an inkjet printer. An ink droplet is ejected through a nozzle and travels through air until it hits the target.
A conservative level set method is used to track the interface between air and ink. The fluid...

FSI in a Peristaltic Pump
In a peristaltic pump, rotating rollers squeeze a flexible tube. As the rollers move along the tube, the fluid in the tube follows the motion. The main advantage of the peristaltic pump is that no seals, valves or other internal parts ever touch the fluid. Due to their cleanliness, peristaltic pumps...

Fluid-Structure Interaction with Two Fluid Phases
The following example demonstrates techniques for modeling a fluid-structure interaction containing two fluid phases in COMSOL Multiphysics. It illustrates how a heavier fluid can induce movement in an obstacle using the arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) technique along with the Two-Phase Flow, Ph...

3D Fluid-Structure Interaction Simulation of an Obstacle in a Fluid Channel
In this model, fluid is flowing through a channel containing a flexible obstacle. Due to the viscous and pressure forces asserted by the fluid, the obstacle bends.
With the obstacle undergoing a large deformation, the fluid flow domain also changes considerably. COMSOL Multiphysics takes these c...

Microresistor Beam
The example illustrates the ability to couple thermal, electrical, and structural analysis in the one model. This particular application displaces part of a beam by passing a current through it; the current generates heat, and the temperature increase leads to displacement through thermal expansion....

Model of an RFID System
An RFID system consists of two main parts:
A tag or transponder with a printed circuit-board (PCB) antenna
A reader unit with a larger RF antennaThe reader antenna generates an electromagnetic field that energizes a chip (IC-circuit) inside the tag. The electromagnetic field is modulated by the ta...

Cantilever Beam
The elastic cantilever beam is one of the elementary structures used in MEMS designs.
This model shows the bending of a cantilever beam under an applied electrostatic load. This is computed from the electric field that is solved in the deforming geometry/mesh domain using the Arbitrary Lagrangian...
