As engineers continue to design more complex systems with increasing frequency, the need for speed and capacity to solve these structures also increases. Over the years, HFSS has come a very long way and can now solve exponentially large structures with millions of unknowns. Ansys HFSS never stopped advancing, continuing … Read More

HFSS Leads the Way with Exponential Innovation
Exponential Innovation: HFSS
The old adage: “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it,” is as offensive to innovators as it is to grammarians. Just because something works well, doesn’t mean it cannot work better. As times change and technology advances, you either move forward or get left behind.
If you haven’t upgraded to the latest Ansys HFSS electromagnetic simulation… Read More
Webinar Series: Learn the Foundation of Computational Electromagnetics
The electromagnetism problems upon which we spent many hours laboring away on homework in college has a mathematical formulation originally developed by Maxwell, Lorentz, Gauss, Faraday and others. In their full forms, these formulas are partial differential equations that come in many versions – both differential and integral.… Read More
The Hitchhiker’s Guide to HFSS Meshing
Automatic adaptive meshing in Ansys HFSS is a critical component of its finite element method (FEM) simulation process. Guided by Maxwell’s Equations, it efficiently refines a mesh to deliver a reliable solution, guaranteed. Engineers around the world count on this technology when designing cutting-edge electronic products.… Read More
The 5G Rollout Safety Controversy
There has been a lot of attention in the news recently about AT&T and Verizon rolling out their first implementations of sub-6GHz 5G radio access networks (RAN). Notably, the FAA and airline industries have voiced serious concerns about potential safety issues for aircraft autopilot and landing systems. As a result of these… Read More
Bonds, Wire-bonds: No Time to Mesh Mesh It All with Phi Plus
Automatic adaptive meshing in HFSS is a critical component of its advanced simulation process. Guided by Maxwell’s Equations, it efficiently refines the mesh to accurately capture both the geometric and electromagnetic detail of a design. The end result is a process that guarantees accurate and reliable simulation results… Read More
There’s No Such Thing as Ground (But Perhaps There’s a Bob) Minimze Your Ports
I would contend there is no job quite like working as a support engineer for a simulation tool like Ansys HFSS. Such a role forces an engineer to understand technology in breadth and depth like no other because HFSS is applied to such a broad range of applications and products throughout the world. My own introduction to HFSS began … Read More
