Product information

The latest version of COMSOL Multiphysics, a software package for scientific simulations and formerly called FEMLAB, has been made public. The name change reflects the growing functionality of the product, which started off as software for finite-element modeling (FEM). The new software can include the whole spectrum of basic CAD formats, and has a new independent script language, COMSOL Script, which allows simulations via the command line. The graphical user interface supports physical units and the software provides new algorithms for the simulation of moving particles and geometrical parameterization. For documentation see www.femlab.ch and www.comsol.com.
