May 2026 Special Focus: Artificial Intelligence in Design and Simulation
In this Special Focus Issue, learn about the latest developments in the integration of artificial intelligence into engineering workflows.
Design & Simulation Software Guide 2025
In this Special Issue, Digital Engineering presents its second annual guide to design and simulation software vendors.
Vela Solaris announced Polysun 6.2, which the company says leverages the latest developments in the renewable energy sector.
Vela Solaris and the Swiss Federal University of Technology in Zurich collaborated on research projects looking at PV self-consumption optimization. The results of that research have been incorporated into Polysun. The solution now includes programmable controllers and realistic profiles, which the company says can help simulate these storage solutions.
Further cooperation with the ETH Zurich Power Systems Laboratory resulted in research being conducted on the life of batteries. The latest version of Polysun supports the dimensioning of electrical storage systems with a new battery model and does so by recording the state of health (SOH) of batteries during the simulation.
