Bangalore, April 2013 - The Program Committee for the 9th annual COMSOL Conference on multiphysics simulation is inviting engineers and researchers from around the globe to begin submitting abstracts describing their designs, projects and achievements for presentation at the Conference. Selected papers will be given the coveted opportunity to present their work at the world's largest conference on multiphysics simulation and computer aided engineering.

The Conference will be held at the M?venpick Hotel in Bangalore, on October 17-18, 2013. The The COMSOL Conference connects more than 2,000 engineers, researchers and scientists worldwide, providing them with the chance to showcase their work, share innovative technologies and best practices, as well as with the opportunity to meet with the makers of COMSOL Multiphysics. The Conference focuses on advancing cross-discipline and multiphysics simulation by providing Conference attendees with a multitude of hands-on minicourses, networking opportunities, keynote talks from industry leaders, and over 850 user presentations.

Presenting a poster, paper, or both at the COMSOL Conference is an unparalleled and esteemed opportunity for multiphysics users to achieve widespread recognition within a highly skilled community of engineers and researchers. "The COMSOL Conference is the perfect platform to present and share one's work with fellow engineers and researchers, as well as experts from the industry. It is also a great opportunity to get one's work appreciated globally," says Prajakta Sabnis, Program Committee Chair of the Bangalore Conference.

Suggested topic areas include:

• AC/DC Electromagnetics
• Acoustics and Vibrations
• Batteries, Fuel Cells, and Electrochemical Processes
• Bioscience and Bioengineering
• Chemical Reaction Engineering
• Computational Fluid Dynamics
• Electromagnetic Heating
• Geophysics and Geomechanics
• Heat Transfer and Phase Change
• MEMS and Nanotechnology
• Microfluidics
• Multiphysics
• Optics, Photonics and Semiconductors
• Optimization and Inverse Methods
• Particle Tracing
• Piezoelectric Devices
• Plasma Physics
• RF and Microwave Engineering
• Simulation Methods and Teaching

The Poster Session is one of the key events at the Conference. "What makes the Poster Session such a valuable part of the conference experience is the wide array of different applications that are presented," says Bernt Nilsson, Sr. Vice President of Marketing at COMSOL, Inc. "With the Poster Session, not only do you have the opportunity to showcase your project during the scheduled session, but your work is also featured for the full two days of the Conference, allowing for ongoing discussions between the author and Conference attendees."

To submit an abstract for review by the Program Committee, visit the Call for Papers page on the COMSOL website. For the Bangalore Conference presenters who submit an abstract by the June 28 Early Bird Deadline, a discounted Conference registration fee will be provided. The final submission deadline for abstracts is August 2.

COMSOL provides simulation software for product design and research to technical enterprises, research labs, and universities through over 17 offices and a distributor network all over the world. Its flagship product, COMSOL Multiphysics?, is a software environment for modeling and simulating any physics-based system. A particular strength is its ability to account for coupled or multiphysics phenomena. Add-on products expand the simulation platform for electrical, mechanical, fluid flow, and chemical applications. Interfacing tools enable the integration of COMSOL Multiphysics simulation with all major technical computing and CAD tools on the CAE market.
