Remcom Announces XFdtd Simulation Software Update

A new major feature of this release is PrOGrid Project Optimized Gridding, which simplifies grid creation. This capability, according to the company, incorporates the best practices in FDTD modeling by considering multiple aspects of a project to optimize the grid for accuracy and runtime.

With the new Poseable Hands from CADHuman feature, users can see how mobile devices are held in realistic ways. This allows designers to better understand device performance is affected by how it its held. The Enhanced Biological Thermal Sensor provides data for engineers studying the effects of RF exposure. Analyses are available for therapeutic heating devices, MRI heating implants, microwave thermal ablation and implantable devices.

Other features include MATLAB export and STL import capabilities as well as a dispersive material calculator.

“The application-specific capabilities reflect our ongoing commitment to two of our core customer markets: mobile devices and biomedical engineering,” said Rodney Korte, product manager for XFdtd.  “We spend a great deal of time examining the challenges and daily work processes of engineers in a wide variety of markets and adding the many features they need.  Despite that, we’ve been successful at keeping XFdtd a robust and comprehensive solution while at the same time gaining economies in computation times with each release.”
