Using the Litz Wire Feature in CST Studio Suite

Litz wires help reduce losses due to skin and proximity effects at higher frequencies up to the MHz range. Litz conductors are made of multiple strands of insulated copper wire woven/twisted together. We are presenting a new CST Studio Suite feature to model and simulate litz wires accurately. By Bilquis Mohamodhosen Introduction The use of […]
Democratizing Engineering Analysis Through a Universal Material Subroutine

The Living Heart Project’s monthly webinar series is currently focusing on the democratization of engineering analysis through a universal material subroutine. The goal is to broaden access to simulation technologies and empower individuals with different backgrounds to participate in scientific discovery. By automating the process of model selection directly from data, finite element analysis can […]

Racing Ahead: Navigating Regulations and Complexity in Race Car Design

SIMULIA’s Fred Quemeneur talks about how race car design and development are shaped by a meticulous understanding of regulations, which set the targets for performance and safety, and how simulation can help with design efficiency and time-to-market. By Katie Corey Race car design involves many complexities that require a team of experts working together to […]
Reinforced Elastomer: Kaliske-Schmidt Example

This post describes a new feature that will become available in R2024x FD01, in early Feb, 2024. By Tod Dalrymple Kaliske-Schmidt Example From time to time I have been asked about how to model an elastomeric material that is not isotropic. Imagine an elastomer that is reinforced with (elastomeric) fibers along one direction. This gives […]

This experience shows an electric truck hooked up to a charging station to demonstrate thermal control of the main components in the electric system. Don’t forget to try out the experience for yourself! By Katie Corey Thermal Management During Fast […]
End to End MBSE to Electrical process – 2023 release

3DS is enhancing systems engineering approaches by providing a strong link between MBSE activities and detailed engineering activities. Vincent Delbouys – CATIA Electrical & Fluidic Industry Process Consultant Manager, is sharing the value of this process. By Yves Barbier Can you remind us of the objectives of this process? In the past, we have seen […]
A New Approach for Simulating Laminar Separation in PowerFLOW

The transition between laminar and turbulent flow is crucial to understanding fluid behavior in many scenarios, such as eVTOL propellers and wind turbine blades. Formerly, this transition was challenging to simulate accurately. An extension to the PowerFLOW Very Large Eddy Simulation (VLES) method provides easier and more accurate simulation of laminar flow separation and reattachment. […]
This Boston heart surgeon hired a team of engineers. Here’s why

Doctors team with engineers to create virtual twins and usher in a new era of precision and personalized care. By Melissa Russell Dr. David Hoganson, a pediatric cardiac surgeon at Boston Children’s Hospital, is part of a team of surgeons working with the highest risk, most vulnerable patients, performing hundreds of procedures each year requiring meticulous […]
EMC Simulation of the Coupling Between a PCB and a Ground Plan

In this article, we demonstrate how simulation with CST Studio Suite® can help improve emission performance of products. We analyze the coupling between signal traces on a printed circuit board (PCB) and the reference plane as it is commonly the result of interest in electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) measurements. The presented results are discussed for conducted […]
