COMSOL Multiphysics

COMSOL Multiphysics — A modeling package for the simulation of any physical process you can describe with partial differential equations (PDEs).

COMSOL Multiphysics features state-of-the-art solvers that address complex problems quickly and accurately, while its intuitive structure is designed to provide ease of use and flexibility.

You can easily model most phenomena through predefined modeling templates. Modifying these to specific applications is possible through equation-based modeling capabilities.

To deal with the increasing demand for realistic representations of the world around us, you can easily model systems of coupled physics phenomena. COMSOL Multiphysics provides a friendly, fast and versatile environment for multiphysics modeling.

  • AC/DC Module
    The AC/DC Module sets the stage for modeling the performance of capacitors, inductors, motors, and microsensors. The capabilities of this module span electrostatics, magnetostatics, and electromagnetic quasi-statics with unlimited couplings to other physics.
  • Acoustics Module
    The Acoustics Module is a world-class solution to all your acoustics modeling needs. With specially designed interfaces and newly developed boundary conditions, this module lets you model acoustic wave propagation through solids and fluids.
  • CAD Import Module
    The CAD Import Module streamlines the process from design to model. This utility greatly simplifies the transition from geometric designs that engineers create with specialized CAD tools to mathematical modeling in COMSOL Multiphysics.
  • Chemical Engineering Module
    The Chemical Engineering Module is the perfect tool for process-related modeling. It is specifically designed to easily couple transport phenomena-computational fluid dynamics (CFD) or mass and energy transport-to chemical reaction kinetics.
  • Earth Science Module
    The Earth Science Module is well suited to model single and coupled processes for geologic and environmental phenomena, particularly related to subsurface flow. Ideal for porous media flow coupled to other physics such as solute transport, heat transfer, solid deformation, and more.
  • Heat Transfer Module
    The Heat Transfer Module solves problems involving any combination of conduction, convection, and radiation. It finds extensive use in systems that involve the generation and flow of heat in any form.
  • Material Library
    The Material Library is a material property database with more that 2500 materials and 20000 properties. The database contains temperature dependence of electrical, thermal, and structural properties of solid materials.
  • MEMS Module
    The MEMS Module addresses design issues that arise in the micro-world. It models physical phenomena in actuators, sensors, microfluidic, and small piezoelectric devices.
  • RF Module
    Modeling in RF, microwave and optical engineering requires resolving the scale of the transmitting device while capturing effects many orders of magnitude greater. The RF Module offers you the tools to meet this challenge.
  • Structural Mechanics Module
    The Structural Mechanics Module performs classical stress-strain analyses with full multiphysics capabilities. Comprises nonlinear material models, large deformation, contact abilities, and more.

COMSOL Script — Technical programming language for simulation in all area of mathematics, science and engineering. Programming can be performed either in the COMSOL Script interface, COMSOL Desktop, or in collaboration with COMSOL Multiphysics and its product line.

  • Optimization Lab
    The Optimization Lab provides a state-of-the art suite of COMSOL Script functions for setting up and solving optimization problems. It is fully integrated with other the COMSOL Script product line and is available to optimize COMSOL Multiphysics models.
  • COMSOL Reaction Engineering Lab
    The COMSOL Reaction Engineering Lab uses reaction formulas to create models of reacting systems. Just enter chemical reaction formulas and have the material and energy balances set up automatically. The Reaction Engineering Lab is the perfect environment for virtual experiments with chemical kinetics.
  • Signals & Systems Lab
    The Signals & Systems Lab contains over one hundred functions to support signal processing, system simulation, system identification, design and analysis of control systems, adaptive filtering, non-stationary signal analysis, and statistics.
