UMBC High Performance Computing Facility (HPCF) COMSOL *versionNumber*/afs//software/comsol/*versionNumber*/bin/comsol.For a different version than the default, issue the full command specified in the following using an available past version number. Versions available under Linux in the DoIT computer labs: To run the default version, just issue the command comsol at the Linux prompt. Versions available under Windows in the DoIT computer labs: The most efficient way to run COMSOL is to use a lab PC and run it locally. Most computers in these labs can be booted under either the Windows or the Linux operating system. There are numerous DoIT computer lab locations throughout the campus. Accessing COMSOL Multiphysics at UMBC DoIT Computer Labs This page provides instructions on where to access COMSOL Multiphysics on the UMBC campus, what versions are available, and how to start the software. COMSOL Server™ supports customizable levels of security and transparency with administrative tools that allow you to create user accounts and user groups with specific roles and permissions.COMSOL Multiphysics is an excellent, state-of-the-art software for the solution of many types of partial differential equations (PDEs), both stationary and time-dependent, by numerical techniques based on the finite element method for the spatial discretization. You may even host it on a Virtual Private Cloud and use this infrastructure to control access and monetize your apps and services. This includes allowing your colleagues or even your customers, clients, vendors, or partners outside your organization to run your applications. The straightforward COMSOL Server™ worldwide network license means your simulation only has the restrictions that you set. The apps you upload to COMSOL Server™ can be as complex or streamlined as required by their intended user base. When apps are deployed on COMSOL Server™, they can be accessed and run by engineers, lab technicians, operators, QA teams, professors, students, or faculty. Alternatively, a thin client can be installed on Windows ® systems, which will also allow you to access COMSOL Server™. Once installed, COMSOL Server™ can be accessed via any modern web browser, including those found on mobile devices. It can be installed locally or on a central or cloud-based machine to support multi-user operation. Multiphysics Simulation Is Now Possible on Any DeviceĬOMSOL Server™ is the intuitive and flexible platform that allows access to and management of your simulation applications. They can in turn be uploaded to COMSOL Server™ to further provide simulation accessibility that fits the unique requirements of your organization. These apps can be created to incorporate any data, support the inputs required per your specification, and produce results in whichever format best fits your project. Verify and optimize your work in real time, without constraints, using multiphysics apps that have been created to match your needs exactly.Įasily develop apps based on powerful multiphysics simulations with the Application Builder, which is included in the Windows® version of COMSOL Multiphysics ®. With COMSOL Multiphysics ® and COMSOL Server™, you can apply simulation to any project, process, or product within your organization. The Power and Benefits of Simulation are Accessible to Everyone
