Wen Zhang

Managing Director, COMSOL UK at COMSOL, Inc.

I am passionate about technology companies and working with engineers and scientists from a wide range of engineering industries. After obtaining a degree in Electrical and electronics I have completed a PhD in microelectronics from University of Southampton. I then started my professional career at COMSOL as a technical specialist in Electromagnetics. Over the past years I have been involved with different roles within the organization. Currently I am responsible for the operations and the growth of our business in the UK and Ireland. COMSOL is in the business of creating, marketing, and selling its own products within the CAE and simulation software industries. Our flagship product, COMSOL Multiphysics®, is a software platform for modeling and simulating physics-based systems, with a particular strength in accounting for multiphysics phenomena. Optional discipline-specific add-on modules are available for studying mechanical, fluid flow, electrical, and chemical simulations, which can all be integrated into the design workflow through powerful CAD interoperability. Simulation apps can be created and distributed throughout organizations using the Application Builder and COMSOL Server™, making simulation capabilities available to both experts and non-experts and providing a greater and more integrated workflow. Founded in 1986 in Stockholm, Sweden, our company now boasts over 20 offices throughout the U.S., Europe, India, Brazil, and China with more than 450 employees. Specialties Multiphysics, Structural Mechanics, Simulation, Applications, Acoustics, Heat Transfer, Electromagnetics, Computational Fluid Dynamics, Electrochemistry, Finite Element Analysis, Chemical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, MEMS, Microfluidics, Corrosion, Batteries
