Problem Description

Solution

If you have COMSOL Script, you can run COMSOL Script files in batch mode without using the command window. Invoke your script from the Linux/Sun operating system command prompt with the comsol command.

comsol batch myscript

will run the script myscript.m in batch mode. (In Windows, use comsolbatch.exe or comsolbatch64.exe instead of the command comsol batch).

Commands requiring a response from the user, for example through dialog boxes, cannot be included in the scripts for batch commands. Plots will not remain on the screen after you have run the batch, and you will lose all data that the script has not saved to file.

If you do not own a copy of COMSOL Script, you can still run an m-file batch mode, provided that you delete all plot commands from the m-file before you run it. File IO functions such as save, load, fread, fwrite, fscanf, and fprintf will not be available, but saving and loading COMSOL mph-files using flsave and flload is possible.

If you run COMSOL Multiphysics with MATLAB, you can run your file in a session without the desktop and the splash screen:

comsol matlab -ml -nosplash -mlr myscript

	Put the file myscript.m in your working directory and give the command comsol batch myscript. First a simple COMSOL Multiphysics problem is solved and then a simple linear algebra operation is performed. The results are saved to file.
