In conformità con la nostra Quality Policy, COMSOL ha pubblicato una libreria con centinaia di esempi di modelli documentati che vengono regolarmente testati rispetto all'ultima versione del software COMSOL Multiphysics®, compresi i problemi di benchmark di ASME e NAFEMS, così come TEAM problems.

I nostri test di verifica e validazione (V&V) forniscono soluzioni sempre accurate che vengono confrontate con i risultati analitici e i dati di riferimento stabiliti. I modelli documentati qui sotto fanno parte delle Application Library integrate nel software COMSOL Multiphysics®. Includono inoltre valori di riferimento e fonti per un'ampia gamma di benchmark, così come istruzioni passo-passo per riprodurre i risultati sul proprio computer. Questi modelli possono essere usati non solo per documentare l'impegno nella garanzia di qualità del software (SQA) e nella verifica del codice numerico (NCV), ma anche come parte di un programma di formazione interno.

Phase Change in a Semi-Infinite Soil Column

In this example, a heat-conduction problem with phase change in a porous material is solved, and the results are compared with the analytical solution, also known as the Lunardini solution. This is the first test case from the InterFrost project. https://wiki.lsce.ipsl.fr/interfrost ... Per saperne di più

Isotropic Compression with Modified Cam-Clay Material Model

Isotropic compression is a common material test in soil mechanics. The modified Cam-Clay (MCC) model describes the relation between the void ratio and the logarithm of the pressure. In this example, a cylindrical soil sample under isotropic compression is simulated. It is verified that, ... Per saperne di più

Spherical Cap with Central Point Load

This benchmark studies the nonlinear deformation of a spherical cap subjected to point load at center using 2D axisymmetric Solid Mechanics and Shell interfaces. The results from the Shell interface are compared with Solid Mechanics interface as well as with analytical results given in ... Per saperne di più

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 ... Per saperne di più

An Equivalent Circuit Model for a Nickel–Metal Hydride Battery

A simple equivalent circuit model approach is presented for Nickel metal hydride batteries. The 0D model consists of resistor, capacitor, current source and state-of-charge based voltage source (SOC). An Arrhenius type dependence is used to account for self-discharge. All model ...

Crevice Corrosion of Nickel with Electrode Deformation

This model exemplifies the basic principles of crevice corrosion and how a time-dependent study can be used to simulate the electrode deformation. The model is in 2D and the polarization data for the corrosion reaction is taken from a paper by Absulsalam and others. The model and the ... Per saperne di più

This entry is a compilation of some examples from DIN EN 1991-1-2 (Actions on structures exposed to fire). Models that are included: 1. Cooling (HT) 2. Heating (HT) 3. Heat transfer through multiple layers (HT) 4. Thermal elongation (SME, thermal stress) 5. Thermal expansion (SME, HT, ... Per saperne di più

Failure Prediction in a Layered Shell

Laminated shells made of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CRFP) are common in a large variety of applications due to their high strength-to-weight ratio. The widespread attention to laminated shells is due to their diverse applications in aerospace, marine, automotive, and various ... Per saperne di più

Self-Lubricating Journal Bearing

This example describes how to simulate the self-lubricating phenomenon of a liquid lubricant in a journal bearing. A porous bushing is press-fitted to a bearing and saturated with a lubricant. It acts as a reservoir for the redistribution of the thin film of lubricant between regions of ... Per saperne di più

Degradation of DNA in Plasma

Biotechnology is a rapidly growing area in the pharmaceutical sciences. One example of a clinical application is gene therapy, where it is possible to produce proteins in vivo, using the body’s own mechanisms for protein production. Major issues in gene delivery involve the transport of ... Per saperne di più
