Abstract In this paper, we present aspects and examples relating to Rem3D, a 3D finite element software dedicated to the computation of the entire injection molding cycle (filling, packing and cooling). Recent developments are presented, namely mesh generation and adaptation driven by a local natural metric, compressible Stokes and temperature solvers, as well as a multidomain approach. As an example of the application of Rem3D, computations have been compared with well instrumented experiments for a complex mold geometry.
