Comsol announced the latest release 5.2a of Comsol Multiphysics, boosting the Comsol Multiphysics and Comsol Server simulation software environment. The 5.2a version adds three new solvers, delivering faster and more memory efficient computations, suitable for linear elastic analysis, allowing to handle large multiphysics models and more efficiently compute strongly-coupled multiphysics applications. An explicit solver based on the discontinuous Galerkin method for acoustics in the time-domain is also available.
The suite allow the deploy apps throughout organizations using the Comsol Client for Windows or web browser, with the Application builder allowing the design of more dynamic apps with user interface that can be updated even if the app has been launched, custom themes allowing the use of organizations’s branding on the login screen and the option to embed videos and include hyperlinks. An improved meshing with quality optimization results in better overall meshes, and a new magnetic vector hysteresis material model enables to more realistically model devices such as transformer cores and other ferromagnetic devices.
