How to Navigate the COMSOL Multiphysics®User Interface


This eight-part course covers the user interface in COMSOL Multiphysics®and the fundamentals of interacting with the software. We will show you how to navigate the modeling environment and introduce you to the tools, menus, and buttons to efficiently build your models.

The course begins by providing an introduction to the COMSOL Multiphysics®user interface, also known as the COMSOL Desktop®, before moving into more specifics on how to use theGraphicswindow and select geometry. After that, when you have started building your own models, there are features and functionality to modify the COMSOL Desktop®layout, search within your model, and utilize keyboard shortcuts. Finally, there is an article on how to use the help resources within the software for any questions that might arise.

An overview of the course, each part, and what is covered can be seen below:

The COMSOL Desktop®is customized to show four windows tiled with different visualizations of the results displayed. Learn more in Part 4 of the course.

Upon completing the course, you will be comfortable working in the software modeling environment. The course will have familiarized you with the various windows, menus, and buttons contained therein. You will be knowledgeable in the shortcuts, tools, and functionality you can use to expedite building or getting help with building your models.
