Understanding The Total Cost Of Ownership In HPC And AI Systems


Cost is often the deciding factor when it comes to purchasing decisions at an organization, particularly those dealing with high-tech investments. When organizations evaluate proposals for new procurements, the initial capital cost of the system often receives significant attention. A great deal of preparation and planning goes into the decision to make a large purchase. While this is a critica... » read more

Powering The Future Of Flight: Designing A Hydrogen-Powered eVTOL


A large, bustling city surrounds you — crowded streets and tall buildings reaching toward the sky. You’re late for an appointment. However, instead of hopping into a car, you look above for your ride: an electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) vehicle. It is a small aircraft that takes off and lands vertically like helicopters, uses sustainable electric propulsion systems, and is inte... » read more

How Simulation Addresses Hydrogen Fuel Challenges


By Kiyoung Jung and Kyutae Kim Hydrogen has gained the front seat as a fuel for carbon neutrality. The absence of carbon emission at the point of utilization makes it attractive for net-zero initiatives. Hydrogen fuel possesses qualities like higher flame speed (8x higher), lower ignition energy requirements (15x lower), and wider flammability limit (4% to 70%) compared to typical hydrocar... » read more

Advances in 3D-IC At DAC 2024


At the 2024 Design Automation Conference and Exhibit, Ansys, in collaboration with NVIDIA, has been showcasing its latest advances in 3D-IC multiphysics analysis, visualization, and signoff. Ansys solutions are on display for thermal integrity, power integrity, signal integrity, and mechanical integrity for multi-die (3D-IC) electronic assemblies. The DAC Exhibitor Forum sessions, sponso... » read more

Powering Next-Generation Insightful Design


The Ansys team is gearing up for an exciting time at DAC this week, where we’ll be sharing a whole new way of visualizing physical phenomena in 3D-IC designs, powered by NVIDIA Omniverse, a platform for developing OpenUSD and RTX-enabled 3D applications and workflows. Please attend our Exhibitor Forum session so we can show you the valuable design insights you can gain by interactively viewin... » read more

Physics-Aware AI Is The Key To Next Gen IC Design


Chip design projects are notorious for generating huge amounts of design data. The design process calls for a dozen or more electronic design automation (EDA) software tools to be run in sequence. Together, they write out hundreds of gigabytes of intermediate data on the way to creating a final layout for manufacturing. Traditionally, this has been seen as a problem. But this richness of data i... » read more

Enabling Multiscale Simulation


As product development teams face increasingly complex challenges — including the need for greater sustainability — there’s a growing awareness of the critical contributions made by materials. Many of our most pressing engineering challenges, from renewable energy grids to green transportation, rely on identifying or creating the right materials. Historically, materials discovery, mate... » read more

Running On Star Power


What can generate four times more energy than a nuclear power plant and nearly four million times more energy than burning oil or coal? Fusion energy, according to the International Atomic Energy Agency. A fusion reaction happens as the result of a collision between two light atomic nuclei to form a heavier one. All of this occurs within plasma: a hot, charged gas of positive ions and free-mov... » read more

Photonics: Harnessing The Power of Light


All around us, light is at work. The cameras on our phones, the parking sensors in our cars, the monitors on our desks — all are using the power of light to improve our daily lives thanks to a field of study called “photonics.” What is photonics? Photonics is a multidisciplinary domain that involves the generation, control, manipulation, and detection of light. Light, a form of elect... » read more

Exploring The Facets Of Stray Light With Simulation


Seems like everywhere you look, there’s someone snapping a memorable group photo or perfect selfie with their phones. As the line between traditional and cellphone cameras continues to blur, manufacturers of these handheld devices are pressed to find the best combination of software and hardware to achieve image quality that was previously unthinkable. Of course, mobile photography has com... » read more
