How Embraer Uses Simulation to Put Planes in the Air Faster

“Hey, let’s go zap an airplane with an artificial bolt of lightning and see what happens.” While that sounds like one of those statements no one ever said, the opposite, in fact, is true. Airplane manufacturers have for years been subjecting prototypes of their planes to the electrical transient equivalent of a bolt of lightning […]

Electromagnetic Simulation Makes Connections with the US DoD’s JADC2 Implementation

Everyone who uses a cell phone may not realize that the electromagnetic spectrum that allows for connection to the network is regulated by governments around the world. In the United States, much of the bandwidth for modern networks has been released from exclusive use by the Department of Defense (DoD). Those discrete bands of frequencies […]

Renaming EMA3D® to Ansys EMC Plus and Ansys Charge Plus

EMA is on the frontline of simulation innovation, and now the name of its products reflects what is possible. EMA and technology partner Ansys are renaming EMA3D® Cable and EMA3D® Charge to better represent the powerful simulations our software solutions are capable of. This includes where and how they can be used. EMA3D® Cable has […]

Ansys Charge Plus and its Particle-In-Cell Solver

Electrification is driving the development in several industries, including consumer electronics, automotive, and aerospace. No matter the size, the primary challenges for engineers, product developers, and designers remain the same: to ensure product success, safety, and connectivity. To meet these goals, development teams must consider the hazards to electronic components including electromagnetic interference (EMI), static […]

Introducing Expo 2024 Keynote Speaker Dr. Prith Banerjee

Innovation: a new idea, method, or device; the introduction of something new. Innovation is also what Ansys Chief Technology Officer Dr. Prith Banerjee has based his career on. “This is my passion,” he says. “I want everybody to embrace the passion of innovation like I do.” That is the excitement he will be bringing to […]

Ansys EMC Plus helps EV Project Mitigate EMC Risk

A Colorado company is saving time and money by using Ansys EMC Plus (formerly EMA3D® Cable) for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) analysis early in the design process. Lightning eMotors was founded in 2008 and is based in Loveland, Colorado. The company provides specialized and sustainable driving options, including complete zero-emission all-electric medium- and heavy-duty vehicles. This […]

2023 R1: What’s New in EMA3D® Charge (now Ansys Charge Plus)

New features released for EMA3D® Charge (now Ansys Charge Plus) are making simulating charging and discharging phenomena easier than ever before. “We’ve really streamlined the end-to-end workflow that we’ve provided users in terms of setting up the simulation, running the simulation, and analyzing the results of this simulation,” EMA Product Manager Kevin-Druis Merenda said. EMA3D® […]

Using FDTD to Study the Effect of Current Flow and Induced Electrical and Magnetic Fields on Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic Box Structures

The commercial airline industry is evolving, and manufacturers are turning their heads toward composite materials to build aircraft. Specifically, carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) has been generating considerable interest because it possesses several advantages. CFRP is lightweight, can’t be bent or forced out of shape, and has a high chemical stability. These factors add up […]
