COMSOL (Burlington, MA), the maker of COMSOL Multiphysics modeling and simulation software, has launched a new networking site to allow users of its software to connect with their colleagues. COMSOL Multiphysics has been used in such photonics-related tasks as modeling multilayered LEDs, modeling the thermal performance of laser-pumped optical refrigerators, and modeling the intensity distribution of terahertz waves in a wire waveguide and passing through a silicon lens.
Called COMSOL Community, the new networking service provides a convenient way for engineers and scientists to tap into the virtually unlimited expertise of tens of thousands of highly skilled modeling and simulation experts.
The COMSOL Community includes a suite of services to facilitate interaction among users and the exchange of models and application expertise. The Discussion Forum is a bulletin-board-style newsgroup open to the discussion of any topic related to modeling and simulation. The forum serves as a user-powered help desk providing an extensive scope of application know-how. The Model Exchange allows members of the community to download and upload models. More than a dozen models are available upon the debut of the community. A User Presentation library features more than 1,000 user contributed papers and presentation slides. This is a rich resource, and may prove to be valuable to someone who is able to solve their challenges more easily thanks to previously published work available on the site. The Multiphysics Blog provides the latest tips and tricks for users of COMSOL Multiphysics.
Member registration is free of charge. To join the community, visit www.comsol.com/community/.
