28 August 2009 - Comsol is to hold its fifth annual conference on 8-10 October 2009 at the Boston Marriott Newton in the US.
The event kicks off a series of conferences dedicated to the latest developments in multiphysics modelling, simulation, and virtual prototyping.
The company said a highlight of this year's event will be the unveiling of Comsol Multiphysics v4.0.
A line-up of industry professionals from organisations such as NASA and GE Global Research will deliver keynote addresses at the conference.
Edwin Ethridge, senior materials scientist at NASA Marshall Space Flight Center, will describe his work using microwaves for the extraction of water from the moon.
Michael Vallance of GE Global Research will address the work he leads in developing a high-energy sodium battery for use on hybrid diesel-locomotives.
Prof Marc K Smith will discuss how he uses CFD simulations to teach fluid mechanics to undergraduate students at Georgia Institute of Technology.
Darrell Pepper, professor of mechanical engineering at the University of Nevada Las Vegas will present a benchmarking report on CFD simulation performance.
In addition to the keynote addresses, training sessions, and mini-courses, more than 100 engineers, scientists, and researchers from academia and industry will offer individual user presentations illustrating the application of Comsol Multiphysics in their simulation projects.
