April 2026 Special Focus Issue: Generative Design
In this Special Focus Issue, Digital Engineering takes a look at how generative design solutions can be used across different types of design problems and with a variety of manufacturing approaches to accelerate design space exploration, and…
The competition is an international contest for students interested in antennas, microwave devices, bio-electromagnetics, electromagnetic compatibility and other electromagnetic related field. Entrants used FEKO to create their projects.
Pérez' winning entry described the systematic design of a planar array system and how electromagnetic simulation enhanced each design decision. The goal was to provide a solution for satellite applications that require the onboard antenna to be low profile, high gain and orientable. Phased signals were used for beamforming, removing the need to change mechanical parts for reorientation of the radiation pattern.
“The judges were very pleased to see the large variety of FEKO tools and features that Gastón used in his patch antenna array design project,” said Gronum Smith, marketing director at Altair. “We were [also] thrilled with the quality of entries we received this year. With FEKO now being a part of the Altair HyperWorks suite, we look forward to the launch of another exciting competition in March 2015 with an even more pronounced commitment to worldwide engineering education.”
