LiveLink™ for Revit® Installations
If you have licensed LiveLink™ for Revit®, the installer registers an add-in for Autodesk Revit. When the add-in is loaded a tab called COMSOL Multiphysics appears in Revit. Here, you find tools for preparing your project for simulation with COMSOL Multiphysics. For example, you can select the architectural elements and rooms that will take part in the synchronization.
The add-in enables setting up simulations based on a Revit project by synchronizing geometry between Revit and the COMSOL Desktop when these are run side-by-side.
The COMSOL Multiphysics tab will not appear if the add-in cannot be loaded by Revit. This can happen if, for example, the COMSOL installation is moved to a different location. To restore the add-in run the COMSOL Installer to repair the installation (see www.comsol.com/support/knowledgebase/1221 for instructions).
You can also install and register the add-in with Revit by installing the COMSOL Client, available for download from www.comsol.com. Such an installation enables the functionality for preparing Revit projects for synchronization, and running simulation apps that synchronize geometry.
