Empowering the Electric Vehicle Revolution

As this issue of SIMULIA Community News aptly demonstrates, the electric vehicle (EV) is evolving toward an increasingly greater role in human mobility. While the internal combustion engine (ICE) is not going to disappear any time soon, awareness of its impact on the environment—particularly as populations rise and cities expand—is now global. In response, the EV market […]

Interview with Institut Polytechnique UnilaSalle

This blog article presents the work of two groups: one composed of Anaïs Farrenc and Eléa Gaudefroy on the study of the movement of crystals in magma, and one composed of Jean-Marie Vient studying the nest of Torquigener albomaculosus (or puffer fish) that has physical properties influencing the flow of the current. Hello Eléa, Anais […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]
