CUSTOM MODEL BUILDER HOW TO

In order to learn how to use methods, you don’t have to read the manual: Just click Record Code in the user interface, perform your wanted operations in the Model Builder, stop recording, and start modifying the automatically generated programming code. They enable you to directly perform complex operations on your model, such as, for example, creating your own postprocessing functionality. Methods are programs that you create in the Application Builder using the Method Editor, based on the Java® programming language. Let’s briefly recap what methods and forms are, starting with methods. This enables creating user-defined functionality accessible from custom user interfaces, thereby enhancing the modeling workflow in the Model Builder. Originally only used for creating simulation applications, the last few releases of the COMSOL® software have seen added capabilities that make it possible to use methods and forms in the Model Builder as well. You create add-ins using the powerful user interface building and programming tools available in the Application Builder.Īdd-ins are made up of two constituent parts: methods and forms - both of which are created with the Application Builder.

Add-ins can be used to speed up the modeling process by automating common modeling tasks and reducing the risk of modeling mistakes.

Add-ins, or add-in programs, are user-defined extensions to the COMSOL Multiphysics software that make it possible to create and package custom functionality. As of COMSOL Multiphysics® version 5.5, there is support for creating add-ins.
