Usage Examples
Executables
| Executable | Description |
|---|---|
| comsol | The comsol executable is used to start both the graphical version of COMSOL or, with the batch flag, the batch version. |
Interactive
The GUI version of COMSOL can be started in an interactive session by running comsol:
[username@c100 ~]$ module add test-modules comsol/52a [username@c100 ~]$ comsol
