Powering Mechanical Simulations: AMD Vs. Intel


When selecting the right central processing unit (CPU) for optimizing Ansys Mechanical structural finite element analysis (FEA) software performance, there are two major players to consider: Intel and AMD. Both have made significant advancements in recent years, but choosing between them depends on several factors that directly affect simulation speeds, scalability, and overall performance fo... » read more

Cloud Or On-premises? Why Not Both: A Hybrid Approach For Structure Simulation


Faced with large problem sizes and urgent deadlines, it’s not surprising that more and more product development teams are accessing high-performance computing (HPC) resources on the cloud. After all, a cloud computing model enables you to access the most advanced, leading-edge software and hardware on demand. There are no queues or wait times. Users can “dial up” core counts and other set... » 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

How Multiphysics Simulation Enables 3D-IC Implementation At The Speed Of Light


Electronic designers need greater integration densities and faster data transfer rates to meet the increased performance requirements of technologies like 5G/6G, autonomous driving, and artificial intelligence. The semiconductor industry is shifting toward 3D-IC design to keep up with the ever-growing demand for high-performance and power-efficient devices that has outpaced the capabilities o... » read more

Cooling The Data Center


Since British mathematician and entrepreneur Clive Humby coined the rallying cry, “Data is the new oil,” some 20 years ago, it has been an upbeat phrase at data science conferences. But in engineering circles, that increasingly includes a daily grind of hardware challenges, and chief among them is how to cool the places where all that data is processed and stored. An estimated 65 zettaby... » read more

Physics-Based Radar Modeling: Driving Toward Increased Safety


Autonomous driving is revolutionizing the global automotive industry. With every new model, cars are smarter and more capable of independently responding to external signals like lane markings, road signs, other cars and pedestrians. However, formulating a correct response via artificial intelligence depends on the flawless performance of the car’s perception systems, including radar-ba... » read more
