Corrosion Module Updates
For users of the Corrosion Module, COMSOL Multiphysics® version 5.4 brings a new Level Set physics interface and two tutorials to demonstrate the functionality for corrosion modeling. Read more about the corrosion news below.
Level Set Interface for Corrosion Modeling
The Level Set interface has now been added to the Corrosion Module for modeling corrosion problems where the topology of the corroding electrode surface changes as a result of the corrosion processes. You can see this feature used in the two new models below.

New Tutorial Models
COMSOL Multiphysics® version 5.4 brings several new tutorial models.
