Radomes: Efficient 3D EM Simulation

Electrical, Electronics & Instrumentation, Mechanical, Production & Manufacturing

Highly efficient implementation of Method-of-Moments (MoM) for radome simulations in WIPL-D suite is described in this comprehensive study. Sophisticated approximations rather than geometrical or physical optics (GO, PO) methods were used. Straightforward usage and effectiveness of in-house developed techniques along with efficient utilization of graphical processing units (GPU) are explained.Download…

Simulation of Pulsed-Field Ablation and Electroporation

Biotechnology & Biomedical

Pulsed-field ablation can induce temporary or permanent pores in cell membranes using time-varying electrical signals. This process, known as electroporation, allows for the stimulation of cell growth, drug delivery, and tissue ablation. For the development of applications based on electroporation, designers are turning to multiphysics simulation software to accurately represent…
