COMSOL Multiphysics®

Understand. Predict. Innovate. Optimize.

COMSOL Multiphysics is a simulation software based on advanced numerical methods and is used in all fields of engineering, scientific research, and manufacturing. The software supports single-physics and fully coupled multiphysics modeling capabilities, simulation data management, and easy-to-use tools for building simulation applications. 

Add-on modules and interfacing products connect seamlessly with the basic COMSOL Multiphysics software and expand the capabilities of the software into a vast collection of application areas: AC/DC, acoustics, heat transfer, and many more. 

Third-party supporting software for COMSOL Multiphysics software includes CAD Import Module, LiveLink, Optimisation Module, and the Material Library Module.

COMSOL key features

  • Complete modeling workflow
  • One integrated development environment, following one workflow, for all simulation apps independent of the type of physics involved
  • Strongly coupled Finite Element Analysis physics simulations: thermal, fluid, chemical, and more 
  • Two-way MATLAB/COMSOL script interface with automatic generation of M-files
  • 64-bit meshing and solver technology
  • Easy-to-use simulation apps do not require a comprehensive understanding of the complexities of the actual simulation allowing even nonspecialists to run their own tests, which in turn leads to a better understanding of future product behavior in the real world
  • Easy and seamless communication within the software for better collaboration between people with different functions, whether inside or outside of a given organization 
  • Add-on modules and interfacing products for advanced analysis
