COMSOL recommends hardware rendering for performance reasons. Hardware rendering requires drivers that support OpenGL® version 2.1 or later. Windows® operating system users may also use DirectX® version 9.
To use all rendering features available when Optimize for Quality is set in the Graphics preferences, graphics memory of 2 GB or more is recommended.

Description: Finite element software for complex scientific and engineering problems. COMSOL Multiphysics enables the modeling of virtually all physical processes described by partial differential equations. The program includes various solvers to quickly tackle even the most complex problems, while its simple structure ensures ease and flexibility of use. The solution to any problem is based on the numerical solution of partial differential equations using the finite element method. The range of problems that can be modeled in the program is extremely broad.
The set of special modules in the program covers almost all areas of application of partial differential equations.
COMSOL Multiphysics (Femlab) is a modeling package that solves systems of nonlinear partial differential equations using the finite element method in one, two, and three dimensions. It addresses problems in the fields of electromagnetism, elasticity theory, fluid and gas dynamics, and chemical fluid dynamics. Femlab also allows you to solve a problem in both a mathematical formulation (as a system of equations) and a physical one (selecting a physical model, such as a diffusion process model). Of course, in either case, a system of equations is solved, and the difference lies only in the ability to use physical units and terminology. In the so-called physical mode, you can also use predefined equations for most phenomena occurring in science and engineering, such as heat and electricity transfer, elasticity theory, diffusion, wave propagation, and fluid flow.
