Besides using the Equation View button, another approach consists in using the postprocessing tools, see for instance www.comsol.com/community/forums/general/thread/114702 .
Another neat approach is now available in version 5.2a. We've added (or, to be more accurate I should say, we've greatly expanded) autocomplete. So, let's say you want to set the conductivity to "1+the y component of the electric field computed by the ec physics interface" but you don't know the syntax for the y component of the electric field computed by the ec physics interface. In the text field where you specify the conductivity, you can start typing "1+ec." then go Ctrl+Space, and the GUI will tell you all the possible completions (and their explanations), one of which is ec.Ey . See screenshot attached.
This is one of my favorite new features at version 5.2a .
Best,
Jeff

Thank you very much for your informative reply. I am trying to do exactly what you just said ! I am trying to vary the material conductivity with electric field component in y direction. Moreover, my conductivity here is an-isotropic in nature. So, in this case I would like to vary conductivity in x direction with electric field component in y direction.
However, I am using Electromagnetics Waves module, COMSOL 5.1 and I want to know whether you have the same facility in this version as well. I used emw.Ey to define E-field in y direction but still showing me an error.
Would you help me to define conductivity in x direction (anisotropic) as a function of Electric field in y direction for COMSOL 5.1? I have looking for these for hours and I am sure that I am missing something.
Thanks,
RA

The autocomplete feature is new (or, again, to be more accurate, greatly expanded) at version 5.2a.
The other techniques discussed above should work at 5.1.
Best,
Jeff

I have tried vary the conductivity in x direction with 1+electric field in y direction, in COMSOL 5.1. I am not sure whether the physics is working or not. Would you please let me know how to do this in COMSOL 5.1 version. Please provide a screenshot of the conductivity tensor in this case for better understanding.
I have attached a screenshot to show I did it in COMSOL 5.1 version. Not sure though about the physics inside working or not.
Thanks,
RA
