Teaching Transport Phenomena to Engineering Students with Apps
Dr. Amol Deshpande from BITS Pilani, Goa Campus is moving beyond traditional classroom lectures by building simulation apps that students use to visualize heat transfer and fluid flow concepts.
Optimizing an NIV Mask Design with Multiphysics Simulation
NIV masks offer a form of noninvasive monitoring and ventilation for COVID-19 patients, which lessens the need for ventilators and other mechanical respirators.
Computing the HRTF of a Scanned Geometry of a Human Head
Designing cochlear implants, hearing aids, headphones, and other audio devices requires precise measurements of the head-related transfer function (HRTF). Simulation and geometry import can help.
How to Use the Sketch Tools in COMSOL® to Draw 2D Geometry

Exploiting Hardware Parallelism with COMSOL® Batch Sweeps
What is a batch sweep? How do I set up a batch sweep for my model? How much batch parallelism can COMSOL Multiphysics® exploit? We answer these questions and more…
Gaining Understanding of Complex Phenomena with Virtual Laboratories
Virtual laboratories make complex scientific phenomena accessible for students. See examples from the University of Hartford, Virginia Commonwealth University, and the University of Dayton.
How to Use State Variables in COMSOL Multiphysics®
As of COMSOL Multiphysics® version 5.5, you can use state variables to track the state of your model; affect other fields, such as material properties; and even implement hysteresis.
How to Create an App with CAD Import and Selections
What if you want to create an app with CAD import functionality and interactive selections, but you don’t know any programming? The Form Editor in the Application Builder lets you do just that.
