Simulation for Automotive Design Innovation
Engineers working in the automotive industry benefit from incorporating the COMSOL Multiphysics® simulation software into their workflow to model electric components, batteries, sound systems, and more.
The COMSOL Multiphysics® software features a consistent user experience, regardless of engineering application and physics phenomena. The platform includes the Model Builder for creating simulations from geometry to visualization, and the Application Builder and Model Manager to further support collaboration across teams and organizations.
