COMSOL Multiphysics (Femlab) is a simulation package that solves systems of nonlinear partial differential equations using the finite element method in one, two, and three dimensions. It allows you to solve problems from the field of electromagnetism, the theory of elasticity, the dynamics of liquids and gases, and chemical gas dynamics.
COMSOL Multiphysics also makes it possible to solve the problem both in a mathematical formulation (in the form of a system of equations) and in a physical one (selection of a physical model, for example, a model of the diffusion process). Of course, in any case, a system of equations will be solved, and the difference lies only in the ability to use physical systems of units and physical terminology. In the so-called physical mode of operation, it is also possible to use predetermined equations for most of the phenomena that occur in science and technology, such as the transfer of heat and electricity, the theory of elasticity, diffusion, wave propagation and fluid flow. To better integrate COMSOL Multiphysics with third-party design systems, support for Parasolid files has been added and a new interface has been added for two-way interaction with Autodesk Inventor. With this interface, any changes made while working in COMSOL or Autodesk Inventor will be automatically adopted in both applications. Professionals are offered advanced tools for post-processing, visualization of models and sharing of analysis results. A set of additional modules (AC / DC Module, Chemical Engineering Module, Earth Science Module, Heat Transfer Module, etc.) provides an accelerated solution to specific problems. made while working in COMSOL or Autodesk Inventor will be automatically accepted by both applications.

The advantage of the program is its versatility and applicability in a wide variety of industries and science. At the same time, for greater simplification of work in applied areas, specialized modules come with the program:
Electrodynamics;
Mechanics and acoustics;
Library of materials;
Hydrodynamics and heat transfer;
Geology;
Chemistry.
