Simulation for Consumer Electronics Innovation

Engineers and researchers developing consumer electronics benefit from incorporating the COMSOL Multiphysics® simulation software into their workflow.

The COMSOL Multiphysics® software features a consistent user experience, across engineering applications 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. For the consumer electronics industry, there are several add-on products that provide specialized functionality for modeling electromagnetics, electrodeposition, heat transfer, acoustics, MEMS, batteries, and structural mechanics.
