This article is a practical guide on how to feed a microstrip annular-ring slot antenna on a finite ground using an edge feed. As an example, we will have a look at a microstrip annular-ring slot antenna with a feed line that is connected by an SMA connector to a coaxial cable. The front and side (section) view of the…
Why are non-structural mass now considered as Solver Mass entities? For a long time Abaqus *NONSTRUCTURALMASS, as Radioss /ADMASS, LS Dyna *ELEMENT_MASS… were considered as either elements or groups in HyperMesh, depending on the user profile. We are currently brining some structural changes in HyperMesh for improving…

This article describes how to interpret the ground symbol on the cable schematic view in CADFEKO. The cable schematic view in CADFEKO. Multiconductor transmission line (MTL) The ground symbol on the cable schematic view indicates a local connection from the signal to the closest metallic triangle or infinite PEC ground…
Enveloping of results does identify for a selection of loadcases (with optional scaling factors) the minimum or maximum (user choice) result value per element or node. In HyperView, enveloping is available under Results > Loadcase. In HyperMesh, enveloping is available in Post > Results Browser: right click: Create Derived…
Managing a growing team effectively can be done only by developing best practices and a process workflow. As the size of a company grows, more engineers are needed to work on the different projects. Having a strong workflow allows you to improve execution, knowing there are process checks and reviews required. A strong…
