New user-defined material

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

I'd like to add a material to the user-defined materials list.

I've looked through the manual and don't see how to do this.

Furthermore, there are no materials in the database that seem similar enough compared to any others to use as a starting point.

Thanks.

Adding your own materials and storing them for use in future models in a custom library is easy. See the chapter entitled "Materials" and in particular its section entitled "User-Defined Materials and Libraries" in the Reference Manual for COMSOL Multiphysics 5.3, page 599 and following. All manuals are accessed through File > Help > Documentation.
Best,
Jeff

Hi,

I'm using the old version 3.4, could you please explain where I can find a guide for adding a new material?
