Maximizing Ansys LS-DYNA Performance With AMD EPYC 7Fx2 Processors


AMD EPYC 7Fx2 processors bring high frequencies and very highs ratios of cache per core to the 2nd Gen EPYC family of processors. EPYC 7Fx2 processors build on the large memory capacity, extreme memory bandwidth and massive I/O of the 2nd Gen EPYC family to deliver exceptional HPC workload performance. This paper describes the excellent performance of these chips in running Ansys LS-DYNA comput... » read more

Electro-Thermal Signoff For Next Gen 3DICs


Multi-die designs, 2.5D and 3D, have been rising in popularity as they offer tremendously increased levels of integration, a smaller footprint, performance gains and more. While they are attractive for many applications, they also create design bottlenecks in the areas of thermal management and power delivery. For 3DICs, in addition to the complex SoC/PCB interactions seen in their 2D counterpa... » read more

Run Simulations at Top Speed


The Ansys Fluent solver can be so computationally demanding that complex simulations can take hours to complete. Ansys and Intel worked together to build a new smoother and optimize it for Intel Xeon Scalable processors to help reduce those long simulation times. This whitepaper reviews the results of performance testing conducted with Ansys Fluent 2020 R1 when making use of the Intel MKL sp... » read more

Multiphysics Reliability Signoff For Next-Generation Automotive Electronics Systems


Automotive electronics systems depend on an ever-increasing number of electronic sensors and processing elements, which allow for 360-degree surveillance and object identification/classification. Designing and verifying these systems is, however, as complex as the systems themselves. This white paper examines how automotive chip designers can achieve the stringent safety and reliability requ... » read more
