As an example for a Comsol job, we use the Plasmonic Wire Grating Analyzer which can be downloaded from the Comsol web site. It computes the coefficients of refraction, specular reflection, and first-order diffraction as functions of the angle of incidence for a plasmonic wire grating on a dielectric substrate.

[leonhard@euler02 comsol]$ ls
plasmonic_wire_grating.mph
[leonhard@euler02 comsol]$ module load comsol/5.2
[leonhard@euler02 comsol]$ bsub -n 4 -W 0:30 -R "rusage[mem=2048, scratch=2000]" "comsol batch -np 4 -autosave off -tmpdir \$TMPDIR -inputfile   plasmonic_wire_grating.mph -outputfile output.mph"

Comsol can create a large number of files in your home directory, therefore we recommend to have a look at the Comsol tutorial about redirecting files created by Comsol from your home directory to the local scratch.
