Minicourses give you hands-on experience using new COMSOL tools for modeling and simulation. In these sessions,
the developers of COMSOL Multiphysics guide you through the course material. Along with a course book, we put all
of the course models and material on a CD for you to keep — to review, modify, and reuse in your work. Free access
to all minicourses is included in your conference registration fee.
PDE modeling and Simulation
Partial differential equations (PDEs) are the mathematical foundation to describe the Laws of Nature. This course introduces you to building computer models of PDEs. A variety of examples will highlight the key points to let you simulate just about any physics phenomena.
