Creating a Wavelength Tunable LED Simulation App
Learn how to turn a model of an LED device into a user-friendly simulation app, which can then be used to assess the impact of different designs on the LED’s emission characteristics.
Modeling Metallic Objects in Wave Electromagnetics Problems
What is a metal, anyway? These materials are highly conductive and very good at reflecting incident electromagnetic waves, including light, microwaves, and radio waves.
Modeling a Stacked Piezoelectric Actuator in a Valve
Piezoelectric valves are energy efficient, durable, and fast. You can model a key component of this device responsible for opening and closing the valve: a stacked piezoelectric actuator.
Modeling Thin Dielectric Films in Optics
Interested in modeling optical systems with dielectric films? Get an overview of some of the built-in tools in the Ray Optics Module for these modeling scenarios.
How to Create a Simulation App: Horn Antenna Demo
Get a comprehensive overview of what a simulation app is. We use the Corrugated Circular Horn Antenna Simulator demo app to demonstrate some of apps’ many benefits.
How to Model Rotating Machinery in 3D
There are many different types of electrical machines, but rotating machines like generators and motors play a major role in our modern industrial society. Learn how to model these systems in 3D.
Simulating Antenna Crosstalk on an Airplane
The last airplane you flew aboard most likely had multiple antennas on its fuselage. This creates crosstalk between antennas that can disturb the operation of the aircraft. RF simulation can help.
Evaluating a UHF RFID Tag Design with Simulation
Did you know that ultrahigh-frequency (UHF) RFID tags have a wider range than other types of RFID tags? This is why they are often used to identify animals.
