Britain's Manufacturing Technology Centre, along with partners in the aerospace sector, has built an on-site powder bed fusion facility — and also developed a simulation model and app to help factory staff make informed decisions about its operation. Read More
MED Institute Inc., a full-service contract research organization (CRO) for the medical device industry, is using computational modeling and simulation to analyze RF heating of devices in MRI systems to minimize risks to the patient. Read More
The Northeast Greenland Ice Stream’s discharge of ice into the ocean has been accelerating. To help forecast future discharge, researchers at the Alfred Wegener Institute have developed an improved viscoelastic model to capture forces that contribute to glacial flow. Read More
Polar Night Energy used thermal modeling to optimize the design of a heat storage and distribution system powered by 42 tons of sand. The project aims to help reduce the consumption of nonrenewable heating fuels in Finland and around the world. Read More
To design three-phase inverters and DC link capacitors, two integral components of electric vehicle drivetrains, Bosch turned to thermal and EM simulation. Compared to previous designs, the optimized inverters have a 6% greater range and 200% jump in power density. Read More
Researchers at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne are using simulation to optimize the optical and electromechanical performance of a silicon photonic MEMS phase shifter, thereby boosting the speed, capacity, and reliability of optical fiber networks. Read More
Eden Tech uses multiphysics simulation to design a miniaturized wastewater treatment system made from compact discs. The system can be used to remove potentially hazardous micropollutants, including medications and cleaning supply residue, from our waterways. Read More
Hellenic Cables uses finite element modeling to analyze and validate underground and subsea cable designs for use in offshore wind farms, helping to better connect our world with sustainable power. Read More
L-Acoustics uses acoustics simulation to optimize their bass reflex speakers for sound systems in arenas and concert halls. To accelerate the evolution of their designs, they use apps to analyze how design parameters affect acoustic output and quality. Read More
Mahindra & Mahindra Limited (M&M) accelerates their product development life cycle for automotive components, while also fostering collaboration between manufacturing, design, and computer-aided engineering (CAE) teams, by building and deploying simulation apps. Read More
