COMSOL News 2026
The Multiphysics Simulation Magazine
The natural world has undergone billions of years of adaptation and evolution, making it a rich resource for engineers looking for inspiration. For example, engineering teams have turned to: leaves, lungs, and blood vessels for the design of flow field plates for hydrogen-powered vehicles, the natural heat storage capacity of sand for heat distribution systems, and much more. Nature served as the inspiration for these designs, but high-fidelity multiphysics simulation, grounded in the physical interactions of the real world, was the driving force behind their development. Just as nature itself undergoes continuous evolution, so too has simulation technology.
In COMSOL News 2026, we share the inspiring stories of engineers and scientists who have drawn inspiration from nature and used multiphysics simulation software, digital twins, and surrogate models to improve their workflows, enhance the development of their products, and, ultimately, shape the future of technology.
Topics include:
- Electric truck batteries
- Affordable MRI scanners
- High-end watch acoustics
- Electronics failure causes
- Stable energy storage
- AC losses in a tokamak designs
Additional stories in this edition discuss innovations inspired by nature, batteries for eVTOL aircraft, and medical device design.
