I want to simulate the laminated composite beam, which is made up of aluminium and one layer of magnetostrictive materials. I want to study/plot the fundamental frequencies and different modes.
Please suggest me.
Use Solid mechanics physics and select eigen frequency study.
Select two solid element and assign the material properties.
You can give contact friction between these two elements.
Now go to study option and do the analysis.

is there any tutorial available for analysis of laminated composite beam using COMSOL?
you can check concrete beam and parameterized concrete beam example from Geomechanics module. Mukund A Patil
I have done something similar in FemLab (COMSOL). I used the structural module. I just created the laminates of a dental scaler to get the modes.
I found that FemLab was very fussy about the placement of the laminates. With some separations they would solve and others wouldn't. It was trial and error and I could not see a pattern to it. However it is possible:
