COMSOL Tips & Tricks

Another new year means another opportunity to talk COMSOL Tips & Tricks. Last year, we held our four-day COMSOL Training Classes six times, and each class reminded us that there are some highly useful and practical tips and tricks we have picked up along the way. Here are a few more for you to consider:
