Free Conference CD Illustrates Wide Adoption of Multiphysics Simulations

BURLINGTON, MA (January 17, 2007)-Illustrating the breadth and depth of the use of computer modeling in every area of science, research, engineering, and education, the COMSOL Conference CD 2006 contains a wealth of information. Distributed at no charge at www.comsol.com/conference2006/cd/, the disc contains 272 papers, 153 sets of user-presentation slides, 32 sets of keynote-presentation slides, and even 30 ready-to-run models.

In the fall of 2006, the COMSOL Group of companies organized an international series of 15 technical meetings where 1,885 users of COMSOL Multiphysics and related products gathered to exchange experiences and refine their modeling skills. The COMSOL Conference CD 2006 contains the full proceedings from these meetings along with presentation slides and even ready-to-run model files that were discussed.

"The 2006 conference CD is a follow-up of last year´s success where 86,000 copies of that CD were requested. With a doubling of the user community present at the 2006 conferences, we see multiphysics modeling exploding in use both in academia and industry," explains Bernt Nilsson, VP of Marketing at COMSOL. "This CD, filled with hundreds of real-world examples and results from the latest developments in the field, will show technical professionals how their colleagues are creating optimized products in far less time and at far less expense. As the information on this CD proves, modeling is becoming an indispensable tool in today´s research and development labs."

The CD allows users to read about the latest modeling/simulation techniques and applications in there areas:

• AC/DC Systems
• Acoustics
• Bioscience and Bioengineering
• Earth Science
• Education
• Electrochemical Engineering
• Electrostatics and Magnetostatics
• Fluid-Structure Interactions
• Fluid Dynamics
• Heat Transfer and Thermo-Mechanics
• MEMS and Microfluidics
• Materials Science and Nanotechnology
• Optics and Photonics
• Plasma Physics EHD and MHD
• Porous Media Flow
• Process and Chemical Engineering
• RF and Microwave Engineering
• Reaction Engineering and Reactor Design
• Semiconductor Devices
• Structural Mechanics
• Transport Phenomena

To make it easy for readers to find the information they need within this massive information resource, the CD contains a search facility plus an Author Index. Those new to multiphysics modeling will benefit from an animated tutorial as well as a PDF of a booklet that provides a fascinating overview of the COMSOL product line.

The CD is available for free at www.comsol.com/conference2006/cd/

About the COMSOL product line

COMSOL Multiphysics is a scientific-software environment for the modeling and simulation of any physics-based system. A particular strength is its ability to account for multiphysics phenomena. Optional modules add discipline-specific tools for chemical engineering, earth science, electromagnetics, heat transfer, MEMS and structural mechanics. Another key product is COMSOL Script™, a programming language that works both as a general-purpose scientific computational tool and provides a textual based interface to COMSOL Multiphysics models. Working with COMSOL Script are several other add-ons including the COMSOL Reaction Engineering Lab™, which allows users to model reacting systems; the Signals & Systems Lab; and the Optimization Lab. COMSOL products are available for the Windows, Linux, Solaris, and the Macintosh operating systems. Full details about COMSOL Multiphysics and related products are available www.comsol.com
