Print To Perform: Overview of Additive Manufacturing on the 3DEXPERIENCE Platform
While Additive Manufacturing (AM) has opened up possibilities for product design that only a few years ago were not even contemplated, the industry is still struggling with unknowns: part distortions, residual stress, process repeatability, microstructure evolutions, surface finishing, etc. Along with opportunities, engineers also face challenges. It is here that Dassault Systèmes realized the industry gaps to […]
SIMULIA Talks: The Antenna Market with Marc Rütschlin
Who are you and what is your role at SIMULIA? My name is Marc Rütschlin, and I work as a Senior Portfolio Technical Specialist, focusing on Microwave & Radio Frequency (RF) applications, including antennas. What this means practically is that I work on developing new streamlined workflow solutions for antenna engineers so that they can […]
Simulating for Space Communications with CST
There’s a lot of noise going on out there in space as men and machines send electronic messages back and forth across the void. To enable everyone to hear each other better, radio-frequency (RF) waveguide filters have been key technologies for communications since the earliest days of the Space Age. Although the sky is crammed […]
Project of the Year Runner-up: Predicting the Source of Low Back Pain to Inform Personalized Medicine
‘Project of the Year’ is an annual contest held by Dassault Systèmes where students from around the world are invited to submit projects created with Dassault Systèmes products and software. Winners are chosen by votes from Facebook users and an overall winner is chosen by a jury at Dassault Systèmes headquarters. This interview with SIMULIA runner-up, Jasmin Honegger, was […]
Future Outlook: Antenna Systems
“All wireless communication requires antenna systems, and if we add devices supporting multimedia to the list above such as keyless entry, radio and personal communication, there are dozens of antennas on a single vehicle,” says Thoma. Every antenna individually has to fulfill its specifications, but it is not sufficient to do so in isolation. It […]
NTNU: Race Car Demonstration 2018
Please describe why you chose this topic for your project. The gearbox is a complicated assembly, which means that a string of technical challenges needs to be addressed. Formula Student is a competition but above all it is a platform for students to learn, and to learn as much as possible about a complicated system […]
Image-Based Simulation from Computed Tomography Creating Better Running Shoes
ASICS use computed tomography (CT) data and Synopsys Simpleware™ software to create 3D computational models for better understanding the role of stability in running shoes. Optimizing with simulation reduces the risk of lower extremity injuries for runners, as well as enhancing performance and reducing the risk of future manufacturing errors. Sole structure and heel eversion angle are particularly […]
Simulate Your Way to Efficient Cabin Comfort!
Comfort is more than just physical. Ask any would-be electric vehicle owner who is still holding off on purchasing one because of range anxiety: that distinctly uncomfortable feeling that your new vehicle might not make it from point A to point B due to limited battery life. These fears have a basis in truth. According to studies, […]
Lessons Learned from Car Recalls: Design of BGA Solder Joints Driven by High Fidelity Simulation
Ball-Grid-Array (BGA) Solder Joint is a common electronic packaging connection widely used in the High-Tech, Transportation & Mobility, and Aerospace & Defense industries. You can find electronic devices with BGA connections everywhere – from small gadgets like phones and watches to large vehicles and airplanes. These tiny solder balls actually play an important role in vehicle safety. According […]
8-Year-Old with 3D-Printed Hand Throws Opening Pitch for Red Sox on #Journeyto30
Eight-year-old Hailey Dawson has made waves in the world of Major League Baseball (MLB), thanks to the work of her new prosthetic 3D-printed hand. According to Sports Illustrated, Dawson was born with a birth defect where she’s missing three fingers on her throwing hand – a condition known as Poland Syndrome. The prosthetic hand was engineered […]
