Automation aims to standardize industrial operations and bring overall efficiency to today’s production lines. Such gains, however, may come with considerable effort, as engineering teams must ...

When The MathWorks introduced Matlab technical-computing software more than 20 years ago, many of the first users were control-system designers. Anyone who had laboriously inverted matrices by hand to ...

Recognizing the limits of traditional CAD for creating and controlling highly complex designs, a new effort has been launched to combine 3D modeling, simulation, and manufacturing processes into one ...

It’s no secret to anyone that chip design gets harder every year. There are two major trends driving these ever-increasing challenges. The first is the continual scaling down to smaller design nodes.

Many designs involve multiple engineering domains. For example, hybrid vehicles balance engine performance with emissions limits; UAVs balance thermal limitations on their batteries with ...

Building information modeling (BIM) is currently used across multiple industries, from architecture and engineering to construction. It’s expected to become even more prevalent in the coming years, ...

How in-house-developed and third-party general-purpose simulation tools are limited to a few expert users and aren’t easily shareable. How multiphysics simulation of subsystems can result in an ...

Today’s electronic systems are becoming more and more complex, with an increasing number of power rails and supplies. To achieve optimum power solution density, reliability and cost, often system ...

This old adage is one that craftsmen understand well and never question. Careful measurement and planning is essential in producing any quality product, and when it comes to the building industry, a ...
