Areas where simulation is making a significant mark
“A lot of new fieldshave also begun actively using simulation, like computational finance, computational biology and energy production,” says Rao. Electromagnetics plays a very important role in product development. Simulation solutions give engineers the power to make decisions related to electromagnetic variations in various designs.
Next is high-frequency product design. “For RF and microwave design engineers, product integrity, system integrity and signal integrity are very critical areas of decision making. Moving on to low-frequency electronics areas like motors, turbines and other areas where you have to do system-level design and then break it down into a variety of components that come together to make a low-frequency product, decisions have to be taken to make it more efficientand provide the functionality that it is designed for,” adds Dutta.
