"Multiphysics Modeling Using COMSOL: A First Principles Approach" by Roger W. Pryor

The purpose of this book is to introduce hands-on model building and solving with COMSOL® Multiphysics® software to scientists, engineers, and others interested in exploring the behavior of different physical device structures on a computer, before actually going to the workshop or laboratory and trying to build whatever it is.

The models presented in this text are built within the context of the physical world (applied physics) and are explored in light of first principles analysis techniques. As with any other method of problem solution, the information contained in the solutions from these computer simulations is as good as the materials coefficients and the fundamental assumptions employed in building the models.
The primary advantage in combining computer simulation and first principles analysis is that the modeler can try as many different approaches to the solution of the same problem as needed to get it right (or at least close to right) in the workshop or laboratory the first time that device components are fabricated.
