DEMO STATIONS
Visit our Demo Stations to get advice from COMSOL application specialists on a simulation problem or to get on-the-fly tips on how to boost your efficiency when modeling.

Exhibition
COMSOL partners travel from around the world to showcase their products and services. The exhibition area is a dont miss for anyone seeking turn-key solutions to design challenges.

I was able to speak with the technical staff regarding specific questions that I had related to my own research project. This was a great benefit and the staff was very helpful. - Robert Cicerone, Bridgewater State University, MA
