What is COMSOL Multiphysics?
The focus of the seminar is to introduce Multiphysics Modelling and to demonstrate how COMSOL Multiphysics can be used to model and couple ANY physical phenomena. This event is suitable for research scientists and engineers with an interest in mathematical modelling. COMSOL Multiphysics is mathematical modelling software, used worldwide (in academia and industry) as both a research and process development tool.
It can help users (Engineers, Physicists, Mathematicians, Chemists, Orthodontists, etc.) :
- Explore innovative ideas
- Develop novel devices and/or materials
- Visualise physical and chemical phenomena
Typical Multiphysics examples can be viewed on: http://www.uk.comsol.com/showroom/.
