COMSOL announces the keynote speaker lineup for the COMSOL Conference 2025 Boston, which will be held in Boston, MA, on October 8–10. The COMSOL Conference is an event where simulation specialists and researchers can share their modeling and simulation work, and the keynote sessions will showcase how leaders from various industries, including the aerospace & defense, electronics, semiconductor manufacturing, and food & beverage industries—using the COMSOL Multiphysics software.
The featured speakers will include:
"With the need to make smarter design decisions and innovate faster, modeling and simulation are increasingly important tools in an engineer's arsenal," says Alpert. "I'm looking forward to speaking at the COMSOL Conference 2025 and highlighting how COMSOL Multiphysics helps NASA to solve complex engineering challenges."
Learn about the other five presentations below:
Koppenhoefer will discuss how the multifaceted nature of simulation-driven projects requires an approach that combines technical expertise with organizational support, interdisciplinary collaboration, clear problem definition, and communication.
Sun will explore how Amazon Lab126 uses advanced acoustic simulations in COMSOL Multiphysics to design and optimize Amazon Echo products.
In this keynote talk, Lau will cover how and when multiphysics simulation can be used to solve problems in food processing.
Professor Hu will take the stage to introduce an inverse design strategy for a class of devices: resistive microheaters, which are used in electronics, photonics, MEMS, and microfluidics.
In Alpert's keynote talk, she shares how NASA combined in-flight thermocouple data with inverse analysis in COMSOL Multiphysics to estimate the surface heat rate across an inflatable reentry aeroshell, contributing to improved thermal models and design tools for NASA’s future aeroshell missions.
In this talk, Paddubrouskaya will discuss how using COMSOL Multiphysics and its add-on products enables accurate representation of rarified gas transport, surface interactions, and pressure distributions in narrow channels.
