Foundations of Semiconductor Power Integrity Analysis and Simulation

The SEVENTH installment of the Ansys HFSS Foundation webinar series is here! In this webinar, you will gain a deeper understanding of the mathematical underpinnings of Redhawk-SC and its application in Power analysis and Power integrity.
 

Speakers: Norman Chang and Altan Odabasi

Webinar on Demand
Foundations of Computational Electromagnetics

Discover the different ways to express Maxwell's equations: integral-vs-differential, time-vs-frequency domain, and how these give rise to different types of solvers. You'll get an overview of different approaches used for these solvers and the trade-offs for choosing the best solution method. 

 

Speaker: Eric Bracken, Ansys Fellow / Chief Technologist for the Electronics Business Unit at Ansy

Ray tracing simulation
Foundations of Ray Tracing Methods in Electromagnetics

This presentation includes foundations of shooting and bouncing rays (SBR) as a computational electromagnetic (CEM) methodology. You'll learn how traditional SBR extends in HFSS SBR+ to incorporate edge diffraction, creeping wave, and volumetric refraction mechanisms. Plus, we'll share practical applications of HFSS SBR+ for various use cases.

 

Speaker: Bob Kipp, Distinguished Engineer, Ansys
