Hello HyperStudy Users, Compare is a helpful feature in HyperStudy enabling users with an easy way to compare study definitions within approaches, for instance to figure out what is similar/different in the inputs, outputs, goals, etc. Using Compare you can quickly synchronize the definitions, for instance to copy a list…
Hello Everyone, Please find the below newly added features which will be available in the next SimLab release (SimLab 2024.1). Electronics * 3D IC: Electronics > Tools > Chip * Following enhancements are done in the 3D IC tool. * Electronics thermal solution will be automatically created with heat source and convection…
The provided model has been set up to simulate the operation of a valve. In equilibrium the flexible plate is positioned in a way that covers the neck of the tube perfectly and no mass flow exists. When inlet velocity (or pressure) appears, a pressure load is applied to the plate and imposed it to rotate around its top,…
Do you often define and visualize custom results for your models in HyperView? Do you find this process tedious when analyzing several different models? You can leverage flexible report files (TPL files) and Compose to streamline the process and display any custom results you define for any model you want! This tutorial…

Description This tutorial shows how to use SimLab to run electromagnetic analysis with Flux solver for electric motors. The studied device, a brushless AC embedded permanent magnet motor, includes the following elements: * a fixed part (stator) including yoke, slots, and windings * an air gap * a movable part (rotor) with…
Inverters and converters are critical components for electric vehicle charging and energy management during operation that require specific thermal management. Otherwise, high heat loads in the system can lead to thermal runaway, which can damage the vehicle, batteries, charging stations, and can be unsafe for the…
Interested in leveraging Finite State Machines in your 1D, multi-domain simulations? Altair Twin Activate features the State Machine Library for defining discrete and continuous time Finite State Machines that can be incorporated into your block diagram models. For you to get started using this library, this video shows…
(This is a translated version of a blog posted by Kosuke Ikeda. The original blog in Japanese can be found here). In this blog, we discuss a workflow to find the bucket shape that optimizes the particle filling process during an excavator digging cycle. The simulation of this process is done using Altair Inspire parametric…
Gravity (/GRAV) and Imposed Acceleration (/IMPACC) are two types of loads with similar behavior in some applications. As a result, the confusion between the two is a common mistake in simulation set-up. Imposed Acceleration (/IMPACC) is the total acceleration of a body. No matter what happens this body is subjected to a…
