Today Altair announced the acquisition of newFASANT, offering leading technology in computational and high-frequency electromagnetics. “By combining its people and software into our advanced solutions offerings, we are clearly emerging as the dominant player in high-frequency electromagnetics – technology that is critical for solving some of the world’s toughest engineering problems.”
Video: Using GPUs for Electromagnetic Simulations of Human Interface Technology
Chris Mason from Acceleware presented this talk at GTC 2016. “This session will focus on real life examples including an RF powered contact lens, a wireless capsule endoscopy, and a smart watch. The session will also outline the basics of the subgridding algorithm along with the GPU implementation and the development challenges. Performance results will illustrate the significant reduction in computation times when using a localized subgridded mesh running on an NVIDIA Tesla GPU.”
Altair Acquires Electromagnetics Software Portfolio from CEDRAT
Today Altair announced the company has acquired CEDRAT S.A. and its New York-based wholly-owned subsidiary, Magsoft Corporation, expanding the electromagnetic and thermal simulation capabilities of its HyperWorks CAE portfolio. “Complementing the Altair HyperWorks simulation software suite with our solutions dedicated to electromagnetism, we are joining forces with a leader and now have access to new technologies and resources to help us offer more to users in this ever-accelerating world. By joining the Altair team, we will bring the electromagnetic expertise that has made our reputation over time, and allow us to meet new challenges and explore new, and so far inaccessible, horizons” said Vincent Leconte, Technical Director, CEDRAT.
