Magmasoft-5.1-Tutorial

Aachen, October 2010. MAGMA GmbH introduces with MAGMA5 a new generation of casting process simulation. MAGMA5 continues the series of MAGMASOFT® solutions used by foundries world-wide in order to optimize their cast component production. The software is based on more than 20 years of development, during which the Aachen based company has continued to innovate on and establish casting process simulation as a standard. „First understand, then optimize“: following this standard, MAGMA5 delivers a profound understanding of casting processes that allows optimization along the complete process chain of the cast component. Within the software, this is made possible through different perspectives which can be used simultaneously by the user. Integrated information and tools for simulation projects In MAGMA5, all steps that are necessary for casting process simulation can be specified and performed from a process perspective. This allows the complete production process from geometry input, through the design of gating, risering and tooling, on to solidification and finishing processes such as heat treatment, to be described and simulated. In the process perspective, all information about the used materials, metallurgy and melting practice, production conditions and finishing processes such as heat treatment come together. This allows the user to get a complete overview of the entire manufacturing process he wants to simulate. Altogether, the process orientation of MAGMA5 sets the basis for a profitable manufacture of cast components – through improved casting layouts, achieving the required casting quality, and saving costs. New simulation capabilities MAGMA5 provides important new casting process simulation capabilities. New advanced turbulence models as well as the consideration of surface tension improve the mold filling prediction for gravity castings. And, tracer particles can be modeled with mass and size to evaluate slag inclusions. Burn-on and penetration criteria help identify sand related surface defects. Moreover, a new module for the simulation of as-cast local microstructures and properties of aluminum alloys is available with MAGMAnonferrous. The stress module MAGMAstress has also been completely reworked and for the first time offers the option to simulate thermally induced casting stresses for the complete manufacturing route. A new and comprehensive plasticity model provides improved accuracy, because it considers temperature-dependent as well as time-dependent effects on stresses and strains. Clearly presented results Simulation results such as 3D graphics, diagrams, and tables can be shown in multiple views and can be displayed in selectable levels of detail. This means that results can be evaluated reliably in order to allow an optimization of cast components and casting processes. New software architecture secures future developments The new methodology that MAGMA5 provides is mirrored in the software architecture. Technically, the software is built on a completely new platform and, as it is also modularly extendable and scalable, it offers development potential for the coming years. Due to standard interfaces that allow the free import and export of data, MAGMA5 can be completely integrated into the user’s work environment. With MAGMA5, new hardware and operating systems offer new opportunities. MAGMA5 is fully native Windows compliant and runs on 64-bit Windows operating systems, offering the advantage of greatly increased memory access. For Linux users, MAGMA5 is available for the current SUSE and RedHat Linux Enterprise distributions. MAGMA5 supports multi-core architectures effectively. The combination of MAGMA5 and the latest hardware (Core i7/Neharlem CPU) results in a reduction of simulation times by up to a factor of 5. With the currently released MAGMA5 Version 5.0 all important sand casting processes are supported. The simulation of permanent mold and die casting processes including gravity die casting is available with MAGMA5 Version 5.1. MAGMA5 in a compact overview: Comprehensive project management Solid modeling with a CAD kernel as well as import and export of CAD data (STL, STEP, CATIA, Pro/E) Automatic mesh generation of the geometry within seconds Comprehensive process description with direct access to all process steps and the related simulation definitions Completely new capabilities for the prediction of: mold filling, burn-on and penetration, local microstructures and properties of aluminum alloys, thermal stresses of the cast component for all production steps Interactive and automatic result evaluation Comprehensive database for all required data and properties of casting processes and materials Available for 64-Bit Windows XP, 64-Bit Windows 7, 64-Bit RedHat Enterprise Linux 5, 64-Bit SUSE Linux Enterprise 11

FEFLOW-v6.06-crack-tutorial

What is FEFLOW? FEFLOW is a professional software package for modeling fluid flow and transport of dissolved constituents and/or heat transport processes in the subsurface. FEFLOW contains pre- and post processing functionality and an efficient simulation engine. A user-friendly graphical interface provides easy access to the extensive modeling options. FEFLOW is a completely integrated system from simulation engine to graphical user interface. It also includes a public programming interface for user code. Application Examples FEFLOW is suitable for numerous different applications in flow and transport processes simulation in porous media, ranging from lab scale to continental scale. A few typical examples are listed here: Groundwater Management Geothermal Energy (Deep and Near-Surface) Mine Water Management Geotechnical Applications Industrial Porous Media Design Survey of Saltwater Intrusion Study of Pollutant Dispersion Coupled Groundwater/Surface-Water Simulation (Linkage with DHI MIKE11) Flexible mesh generators Finite-element discretization allows to use complex unstructured meshes that closely match natural structures while obeying requirements such as element size, element angles, etc. For large modeling areas, generation is supported by sophisticated automation algorithms to ensure efficient work. Automatically generated meshes also have to be adapted to internal geographical structures, like rivers or well locations. As any single mesh generation approach cannot be expected to perform optimally under all conditions, FEFLOW offers a number of different mesh-generation algorithms and different options of user influence on the generation process. Parallel computing Transient calculations of complex regional models for long time periods require significant computational effort. Long simulation times can occur, even using the latest hardware available. Parallel processing allows a significant reduction in CPU times on multiple-processor platforms. In FEFLOW tasks of parallel structure as matrix assembly are processed in parallel on the different CPUs. Finite-element method Spatial discretization of the study area is a prerequisite for any numerical modeling. Classic groundwater simulation codes use finite difference discretization. In contrast, FEFLOW is based on the finite-element technique. Major advantages of finite-element modeling include: Unstructured meshing, thus much better representation of features like rivers, fractures, well locations by adaptation of the mesh Better representation of sloping layers and anisotropy Local mesh refinement without having to refine the whole column/row Moving meshes for free-surface calculations Automatic mesh refinement and coarsening Less computational effort due to reduced element numbers for large regional models Broad range of small-scale and large-scale applications GIS/CAD interface In most practical applications, the basic spatial data are available either in GIS (e.g., ESRI formats) file format or in a CAD-like format (e.g., AutoCAD exchange format). Direct import of these data formats helps to avoid intermediate conversion routines for transferring the basic data to the groundwater model. In the post processing step, data are easily transferred back to the GIS or CAD system to provide the results in data formats compliant to the project framework. FEFLOW can handle GIS as well as CAD data for import and export at all stages of modeling, e.g., to provide geographical input for mesh generation, parameter distribution, etc. Where appropriate, different regionalization methods are provided to transfer the basic data to the finite elements or mesh nodes. Using GIS files, attribute data can be directly transferred to the groundwater model. Alternatively, all data input can be performed manually or by importing ASCII files. Up-to-date visualization tools The days of presenting modeling results in large tables of figures are long gone. Today’s customers expect elaborate isoline maps, pathline diagrams, cross-sectional and 3D views and animations, which can also be used to present complex hydrogeologic conditions to the public. FEFLOW addresses that need by its planar, cross-sectional and 3D visualization features. Using FEFLOW three-dimensional visualizations of all model parameters and modeling results (like movements of contaminant plumes, etc.) can be produced.

COADE-PVElite-V2011

PV Elite 2011 Main Features: Modeling of ASME VIII-1 Jacketed Vessels What this feature does - Delivers an integrated approach leveraging the 3D model and calculations in the modeling of jacketed vessels (ASME App. 9) and vapor/distribution belts. How this feature used - Jackets or vapor belts can be added as details on cylindrical elements. Jackets can also span across element boundaries. How this feature benefits you - Previously you would have to model the inner core vessel and the jacket sections as separate PV Elite models and then manually transfer the parameters between them. The same holds true for nozzles on the outer jacket and also the inner shell. The old approach meant that results would reside in two or more places, meaning that reports would have to be manually combined. Moreover, you would have to apply correction factors to get correct combined wind and seismic loads. Another option would be to model the jacket/vapor belt in CodeCalc™, but then these items will excluded from any wind/seismic/support, and other calculations. Why this is better than the old way of doing things For starters it’s easier and quicker. With all the data in one model, there is less chance of errors from multiple inputs plus PV Elite automatically accounts for important interactions between the core vessel and jacket(s). The real-time 3D model, with intuitive sectioning capabilities, allows the on-screen display of the inner vessel plus jacket(s), which is a great in visualizing tool. Modeling Tubesheet as Simply Supported What this feature does - This feature provides an alternative method for modeling the welded joint between the tubesheet and shell or the tubesheet and channel cylinders, which can have the effect of reducing stress thereby producing a more economical design. How this feature used - It is one of the optimization options available in the tubesheet tab of Heat Exchanger dialog. How this feature benefits you - The tubesheet to shell or tubesheet channel junction is place of high stress. This alternative, permitted by the ASME code, gives you the option to produce a more economical, but also safe, design. Why this is better than the old way of doing things - This new capability’s potentially more economical design option was not previously available in PV Elite. This meant that, in some cases, exchanger designers were limited to more conservative analysis therefore leading to more costly designs. ASME Code Updates. What this feature does This feature includes all the rule updates in the ASME code addenda and material updates. The Imperial tables were completely re-created and the Metric ASME material tables were added.

CMG-2011-CMG-Technologies-Lanncher

MG (Computer Modelling Group Ltd.) is a computer software engineering and consulting firm engaged in the development, sale and technology transfer of reservoir simulation software. CMG began as a company known for its expertise in heavy oil, and expanded its expertise into all aspects of reservoir flow modelling. Over the past 32 years, CMG has remained focused on the development and delivery of reservoir simulation technologies that assist oil and gas companies to determine reservoir capacities and maximize potential recovery. To this end, we are continually improving our market-leading line of reservoir simulation technologies to better reflect the changing needs of our users. CMG is a world-class software company traded on the TSX Stock Exchange under the symbol CMG. With over 400 oil and gas companies and consulting firms in more than 50 countries, CMG is one of the largest independent providers of reservoir simulation software in the world. CMOST is the latest product offering in the CMG software suite. It is a state-of-the-art reservoir engineering optimization tool, employing innovative experimental design, sampling and optimization techniques to efficiently determine the reservoir parameters which define the production and ultimate recovery of oil and gas fields. CMG’s Builder creates the base-case reservoir model as the first step in the process. CMOST generates simulation runs automatically from the base model, then submits and analyzes the runs that are created from a range of values for multiple reservoir parameters specified by the engineer. CMOST learns which values produce the best results enabling it to dramatically reduce the number of runs required to find the optimal solution. This is the fastest technique for an accurate history match(es) and reliable production forecasts. CMOST improves the effectiveness of each reservoir engineer by eliminating the tedious labor of individual case generation for hundreds of scenarios. It allows them to focus on the high value effort of interpretation and evaluation of results. CMOST’s power lies in modern experimental design and optimization algorithms which vary multiple parameters simultaneously to find the optimal solution – something a human cannot do. CMOST dispatches to a cluster of computers or a single computer and interprets the results of numerous runs, terminates non-physical solutions and narrows the search space rapidly to reach not just local maximums or minimums, but the ultimate best case. Solutions to reservoir models with trillions of possible combinations and permutations can often be found in fewer than 1000 runs. CMOST helps engineers create more accurate models in dramatically less time and allows asset managers to have a greater degree of confidence in the forecasts, multiplying the team’s effectiveness many fold.

Ucam 9.2.1 fix
Enhancements (2 topics)
Table of Contents
CAD Output

Input


CAD Output
ODB++
BB02825 - ODB++ output can now create different sub-steps, if the original data contains nested blocks on which the uPCB attribute has been allocated. Previously only 1 sub-step was created.


Input
GAR
BB02907 - GAR now allows converting 0-sized aperture definitions. Previously these lines were ignored, while creating a wheel file, which could result in UNDefined apertures.




Contours
BB02677 - Split contours could not support regions containing small inner contours for which the size of the inner contour is in the range of the requested minimum overlap value. A message "Requested overlap is too high" was displayed and the region was not split. These small inner contours are not longer disturbing the Split contour function.


Shave
B357991 - Pad Shave function allows specifying if the shaving should be done between the different "regions" of a complex aperture. By default the shaving is applied between the regions of a complex aperture.


Soldermask
B358068 - The Soldermask Optimizer menu has been extended with an toggle for each section, allowing indicating which kind of optimizations should be applied.


Electrical Test
AutoFixture
B358150 - AutoFixture is supported by 64-bit workstations.


Utest
BB02800 - Introduction of new ucam.db key, testpoint.use.uplated_attr, for allowing ignoring the uPlated aperture and object attribute, stored on the drill layer(s), during test point generation. By default these uPlated attributes will be considered, but if needed, these attributes can be ignored.



General
User Interface
BB02807 - Introduction of new ucam.db keys, pos.cad.formats, pos.netlist.formats and pos.scoring.formats, for allowing influencing the order in which the different output languages are displayed in the output menus.


Input
Gerber
BB02766 - Introduction of new ucam.db key, gerber.evaluate.interpolation.mode, for allowing evaluating the applied circular interpolation mode while loading a Gerber file, in case the Gerber file is not clearly indicating which interpolation mode should be used.. When configuring gerber.evaluate.interpolation.mode: 1 and gerber.interpolation.mode with value G74 or G75 the conversion of the Gerber file can still use the best suitable interpolation mode, in case the conversion with the configured value for gerber.interpolation.mode would indicate problems with some arcs.


BB02815 - Introduction of a new ucam.db key, gerber.274d.jp, for influencing the conversion of flashes (D03 command) of standard Gerber files (RS-274D). Standard Gerber files in Japanese style should not use the model flash command, so only add a flash when the D03* command is explicitly specified. This key is also reflected in the SmartStart Options list, as "JP Style" option, for Gerber files.


Import ODB++
BB02774 - Compressed feature files (features.Z) are now decompressed in a temporary directory to avoid problems with read only containers.


B358354 - ODB++ Import is now only loading the symbol definitions that are required during the conversion of the loaded layers. Previously all symbol definitions, available in the ODB++ job, were converted; this could delay the import of the ODB++ data.


BB02758 - During ODB++ Import the regions containing inner contours can be grouped in a global contour aperture definition (reducing the amount of aperture definitions), when the image is not influenced. Previously each region, containing inner contours, was always using a dedicated contour aperture definition.


IPC-D-356
B358989 - Loading an IPC-D-356 file for being used as netlist references (load from SmartStart and with ipc356.exclude.drills: 1), using the new input algorithm (ipcmet.new_input_algorithm: 1) was missing some references, in case the loaded file was not fully according to the syntax description, e.g. when columns 18-20 are containing characters, although the syntax description indicates that these columns should remain empty). These lines, containing the unexpected characters, were notified to the operator. These lines are still notified but the resulting reference layers are containing the references for these lines.


Top


Job Editor
Layers
BB02843 - Clicking on the right mouse button can be used for hiding a layer.


Top


Job Management
Open Job
BB02861 - Introduction of a new ucam.db key, openjobinrunningucam, for indicating if Job Open, by double clicking on the .job file, should be done in the currently open UCAM session or if a new UCAM session should be started.


Top


Netlist Output
MNF2
BB02846 - Netlist output, of stepped data, was limited to 1022 Multiups. This has been extended to the limitation of the output file (e.g. 9999 for IPD-D-356B), on unlimited if the generated file is not having a limitation (e.g. MNF2).


Top


Verification
Design Rules
BB02770 - In case SmartDRC is not finding any violation, the warning message (indicating "drc found no errors") is now displayed in front of the SmartDRC window.


B358760 - Introduction of a new ucam.db key, drc.lsns_con, for influencing the algorithm that will be used while verifying the Same Net Spacing of Design Rule Check. Normally Same Net Spacing is running on the image (contourized image), configuring drc.lsns_con allows running the function on the way the image is constructed (by running some checks between objects of the same net).

AlphaCAM_V2011_R2_download

A general overview of the new features within Alphacam 2011 R2.


New Parallel and Flat Area 3D Machining Strategies

Mabel
Much improved Parallel and Flat Area 3D machining strategies for cutting solid models and surfaces provide reduced cutting time, improved surface finish and improved tool life.

* Automatic exclusion of flat areas on parts allowing for flat rather than ball ended cutters to be used.
* Steep and shallow areas of parts detected allowing for different strategies to be adopted, such as a smaller tool step-over in a steeper gradient to that used in a shallow area.
* Options to always down or up mill, and loop or round sharp external corners.


New Geometry Query Manager

Mabel
The Geometry Query Manager allows for a set of rules to be defined and applied to the current Alphacam drawing. Based on these rules, geometries are moved onto specifically named user layers. Machining Styles can then be applied to these layers automating the generation of tool paths. AutoStyles and CAD to CAM (add-in) have also been updated to take advantage of this new functionality, proving further automation improvements.


Adaptive Feed Rate Support for Z Contour Roughing

MabelThis new feature in Z Contour Roughing provides the ability to automatically adjust the tool’s feed rate throughout the tool path, taking into account the effective width of cut.
While machining a full width of cut, the feed rate can be automatically reduced to lessen the tool load. Conversely, while machining a narrower width of cut, the feed rate can be automatically increased to reduce machining time, without overloading the tool.

New Automatic Work Plane Ordering

Mabel
This new Order Work Planes command can be used to automatically optimize the order of geometries and tool paths. The shortest path around a 4 or 5-axis part is automatically calculated based on the CNC machine configuration.

This eliminates the time consuming process of manual ordering as well as reduces the rapid travel distances, resulting in faster machining time.


New Extract Solid Edge for Sawing

Mabel
This new Edge for Sawing command, added to Feature Extraction, creates special geometry from a selected solid model planar face. The resulting geometry is automatically configured for the correct tool side, orientation and depth of cut for Auto-Z sawing.

Roxar_IRAP_RMS_V2011_download_win32_win64

Emerson Process Management today announced the launch of Roxar RMS 2010, the latest release of the reservoir modeling system RMS™ which comes with major improvements across the entire workflow.
Within the Roxar modeling suite, users can build models for any reservoir. They can also estimate reserves, plan wells and simulate past and future production. In this way, they can do everything they need to produce maximum performance from their reservoirs, regardless of geology, location or complexity.
Benefits to users of RMS 2011 include:

? The ability to model beneath and around salt and other complex structures. RMS 2011 supports complex fault modelling that other applications can’t handle and incorporates these models into its advanced 3D gridding engine without simplification. Additional modelling functionalities that come with RMS 2011 include building intrusion objects into structural modelling to better model salt, and a new grid data structure for improved performance, scalability and more flexibility in the grid geometry.

? Enhanced facies modelling tools which will enable the user to rapidly combine the latest 4D seismic surveys into the models to improve the quality of interpretations, structural and property models, simulation models, and well plans. The model can also be the basis for a more quantitative use of 4D seismic data, especially towards history matching with both production data and 4D data.

? New well correlation tools with improved handling for horizontal and vertical well correlations which cross stratigraphic boundaries. RMS 2011 enables the user to split the horizontal well into separate sections so that well data can be inspected in the most practical manner possible, whether True Vertical Thickness (TVT) or True Stratigraphic Thickness (TST). In addition, advanced ghost curve capabilities can mix and match curves. Users can also examine array logs on top of one dimensional well logs, allowing for correlation to take place by taking into account seismic data as well as resistivity logs.

? Fractures are also fully integrated into the RMS 2011 reservoir modelling workflow through a DFN-based (Discrete Fracture Network) model which enables robust, fractured models to be built faster, providing an important tool in tackling the complex, fracture-prone geologies prevalent throughout the world.

? Improved usability and integration features which make RMS 2011 even more accessible and easier to use. Users are able to easily import large 2D or 3D surveys into RMS 2011 and enjoy an optimised working environment with updated data analysis charts, multiple and highly interactive visual displays and the best in graphics technology.

Mentor-Calibre-2011.2-download

Mentor's IC verification and sign-off includes not only traditional rule-based physical verification and parasitic extraction, but also new capabilities and automated technologies that help improve yield by enhancing the design itself.

Calibre® is the overwhelming market share leader and the industry standard for IC physical verification, due to the outstanding performance, accuracy and reliability of Calibre products. Over the last two years, Calibre nmDRC™ has reduced average DRC runtime by a factor of five, while Calibre's innovative Hyperscaling and MTFlex™ technologies have cut memory requirements in half. Calibre nmDRC also reduced overall cycle time with incremental DRC, which allows designers to make DRC runs in parallel. As DRC violations are reported, designers can immediately fix and recheck just the affected areas, while the initial DRC run continues.

To handle complex and multi-variate, multi-dimensional checks that are not adequately addressed by traditional design rules, Calibre nmDRC's equation-based DRC (eqDRC) capability enables designers to express design rule checks as continuous, multi-dimensional functions that accurately and precisely reflect underlying physical interactions. With eqDRC, designers can use Calibre nmDRC to address complex DFM issues that other DRC tools simply can't handle.

Calibre nmLVS provides actual device geometry measurement, programmable electrical rule checking, and sophisticated interactive debugging capabilities to ensure accurate circuit verification and further improve the designer's productivity.

Mentor-Graphics-PADS-V9.31

New Features
The following new features are available in this release:
Archive Navigator
This new utility provides a quick and easy method of automatically creating and restoring archives of the PADS projects, including DxDesigner® and PADS Layout.
Archives will be stored in a local vault and properties such as archive name, when and who created the archive, along with a user defined name and description will assist when using integrated searching capabilities to identify and restore the required archive.
Allegro to PADS Layout Import
PADS Layout can now import Cadence Allegro boards after initial preparation in Allegro. Once a Skill script is run in Allegro, the design can be brought seamlessly into PADS
Updated Altium Design to PADS Layout Import
PADS Layout import of Altium Designer now supports Summer 08 files (v7.1) and older.
Modeless Properties Dialogs in PADS Logic (Mentor Idea D113, D239)
Additional Property dialog boxes (Part, Net, Net Name, Bus, Bus Name, and Pin) are now modeless. These dialog boxes can now remain open, and you can select other objects in the design. When the object is selected, the dialog box will automatically update.
Join, Close and Break Commands for 2D Lines and Copper (Mentor Idea D329)
New commands were added to PADS Layout in the popup menu for selected 2D Lines and Copper shapes.
Join – creates an opened polyline (path) from selected lines.
Close – create closed shape (polygon) from selected lines.
Break – splits selected closed drawings into set of opened lines.
Note: There are several conditions when these commands cannot succeed – for example, the selection contains reuse members or shapes located on different layers or the command result is ambiguous from geometrical point of view. In such cases an appropriate message with details is displayed in the Status Window.
Synchronize Library List Between PADS Logic and PADS Layout (Mentor Idea D149)
A new checkbox “Synchronize with PADS Layout” was added to Library List dialog box in PADS Logic. A similar “Synchronize with PADS Logic” was added to Library List dialog in PADS Layout. When this checkbox is selected, all changes made to Library List in one application are immediately written to the other application’s settings. Library List settings are stored separately in .ini files for both applications as previously, so you can easily decide if and when you want to have them synchronized.
Autohatch Copper on File Load (Mentor Idea D424)
The new checkbox “Autohatch on file load” was added to “Hatch and Flood” options in PADS Layout. When this checkbox is selected every design is automatically hatched when opened. The result is the same as the Hatch All command from Pour Manager.
Options Dialog Box Redesign
The Options dialogs in PADS Layout, Logic and Router were redesigned to use trees instead of tabs. In PADS Layout and Router, the tree is organized in categories for better orientation and options grouping. Content of tabs which were overloaded in previous versions of PADS was divided into fewer elements on the new option tree.
Visual Style Selection in Customization
A new option, “Visual Style” was added to the Options tab in Customize dialog in PADS Layout, Logic and Router. This option allows the selection of a visual style (color and menus style) for the main application window from a list of several available styles.
PADS Applications Are Now DPI Aware
With increased text size in system settings, all fonts and dialog boxes are correctly scaled and displayed according to system settings.

CAESAR II 2010_V5.3


CAESAR II is the Pipe Stress Analysis standard against which all others are measured and compared. The CAESAR II spreadsheet input technique revolutionized the way piping models are built, modified, and verified. CAESAR II was the first pipe stress program specifically designed for the PC environment. The interactive capabilities permit rapid evaluation of both input and output, thereby melding seamlessly into the "design - analyze" iteration cycle.

CAESAR II incorporates a wide range of capabilities, from numerous piping codes, to expansion joint, valve & flange and structural data bases, to structural and buried pipe modeling, to equipment and vessel nozzle evaluation, to spectrum and time history analysis. Most of the features of CAESAR II are available at a keystroke, but at the same time are not imposed upon the analyst.

A menu driven scroll and select interface provides logical options when and where expected. Context sensitive help provides instant technical assistance for each data field, with expected units. Data values presented in the help screens are automatically presented in the current set of units to aid input.

The customization options of CAESAR II have been driven by user requests, code changes, and the need to benchmark older, existing systems and their initial design. Many of these customization options enable newer analysis techniques appearing in current literature.

As with all COADE products, CAESAR II is continuously maintained and improved by the engineering staff. The engineering staff of COADE have worked in industry, for engineering and consulting firms. This experience not only guides program development, but provides users with knowledgeable support. This allows CAESAR II to work the way a typical engineer thinks and solves a problem. This also means that the technical support provided to users by the engineering staff is almost instantaneous. Users talk straight to the developers, insuring an accurate and timely answer.

Program revisions incorporate additional capabilities addressing both technical and operational items. Users are encouraged to suggest improvements which help their day to day usage of the software. See the enhancement list for details of capabilities added for each release of the CAESAR II program.

Whether you are a one-man consulting company or a large corporation, if you are looking for a piping analysis program, CAESAR II is the best solution available - period.

Allegro PCB Edito 16.5

Allegro® PCB Editor: What's New in Release 16.5
Product Version 16.5 May 2011
Allegro PCB Editor: What's New in Release 16.5
Product Version 16.5
May 2011
This document describes new features in the current and previous releases of Allegro PCB Editor. Significant enhancements have
been made in the following areas:
Embedded Component Design
Graphical User Interface
Etch Edit Enhancements
Intelligent PDF Output
Associative Dimensioning
Design for Manufacturing
DRC Updates
ECAD-MCAD Flow
Database and Misc Enhancements
RF PCB Enhancements
To view the latest updates on hardware and software requirements, see the Allegro Platform System Requirements. Also refer to the
Migration Guide for Allegro Platform Products, Product Version 16.5.
Embedded Component Design
With increased market demands for smaller and lighter products, improved performance and higher speeds, it may become
necessary to consider the embedding of passive or even active components within the inner substrates of the PCB. If you are
designing product that essentially can be held in your hand, perhaps ones used in mobile applications or a consumer electronic
device like a digital camera, embedded component technology may be in your product roadmap plans. The methods on how
components are mounted and logically connected to the formation of cavities may differ from vendor to vendor. The Allegro Marketing
and R&D teams have done its best to provide a robust solution that can accommodate the vast options you may encounter in the
industry. As always, our best advice for advanced PCB Design whether that be HDI, Flex or Embedded is to work closely with your
Fabricator who may also own the Allegro tools. They can advise on the proper parameter and constraint settings that best
accommodate their process flow.
To support embedded components, following enhancements have been done in Allegro PCB Editor.
Licensing
Front to Back Flow Support
Setup
Key Terminology
Design Rule Checks
Best Practice Paper
Licensing
Embedded Component Design is available in both the PCB Editor and Package/SiP tools. Under the new licensing scheme for 16.5,
the "Miniaturization" product option is selected.
Front to Back Flow Support
The overall functionality associated with Embedded Component Design is largely contained in the back end physical products.
However, the primary method that enables a component to be an embedded candidate is driven from a component definition or
instance level property called EMBEDDED_PLACEMENT. This property can be applied at the schematic level with values of Required
or Optional, thus enforcing the front-to-back flow restrictions you may want to impose on your design process. Alternatively, it can be
applied with the physical back-end editors.
Setup
To setup your board file for supporting embedded components, choose Setup - Embedded Layer Setup
The embedded layer setup form controls the layer(s) to be used for embedded placement, Component direction of Body Up or Body
Down, attachment methods of Direct or Indirect and associated global parameters.
Key Terminology
Direct Attach The manufacturing technology where the components are soldered directly to an internal layer. One
way to visualize this is to think of assembling a traditional PCB with the components on the external
surface(s) and then laminating more layers on top of the

Agilent-Advanced-Design-System-(ADS)-2011-crack


ADS 2011 brings you the following exciting enhancements:

10x speedup in planar 3D electromagnetic simulation
10x speedup in non-linear circuit simulation
Patent pending convolution technology that allows accurate signal integrity simulation with measured S-parameter data of high-speed interconnects
New Simulation Models and Libraries
Further improvement in graphical user interface

The combined benefits of all the above translates to at least a doubling of your design productivity.

10x speedup in planar 3D electromagnetic simulation

The 3D planar EM simulator, Momentum, in ADS 2011 now has at least 10x speed improvement and 6x capacity improvement. This enables you to use electromagnetic simulation as an interactive design tool instead of a sign-off verification tool before hardware prototyping. The high speed of Momentum simulation now allows multiple design explorations to be accomplished easily.

An example of a wireless LAN transceiver simulation where the chip area is minimized by 32% by packing the 11 spiral inductors closer together. This translates to a corresponding 32% reduction in the cost of the 802.11/b transceiver RFIC.

The simulation took just 2.3 minutes with 650MB of RAM as compared to 38 minutes with 1.2GB of RAM in earlier versions of Momentum. This 15x speed improvement allows for interactive placement of the inductors with their proximity effects analyzed very quickly achieving the overall 32% die size reduction.

10x speedup in non-linear circuit simulation

The already powerful harmonic balance simulator in ADS just received additional algorithmic enhancements from Agilent EEsof’s recent acquisition of Xpedion GoldenGate, who has the world’s fastest and highest capacity harmonic balance simulator. Now the harmonic balance simulator in ADS 2009 update 1 can handle bigger circuits and solve them 10x faster. For example, a large RFIC with over 2000 nonlinear elements and over 2000 large signal sources is solved within 250 seconds as compared to 2,485 seconds in the previous versions. The speed and capacity improvements are especially important for fast optimization of large RF-System-In-Package (SIP), MMIC and RFIC to meet higher levels of integration and performance demanded by consumer wireless electronics today.

New Simulation Models and Libraries

The following new models and libraries are now in ADS2011:

PSP and HiSIM transistor models for accurate nano-scale (30nm, 45nm) RFIC simulation
Triquint TOM4 latest III-IV FET model optimized for PHEMT technologies to accurately model highly non-linear behavior
Models for gigabit serial link signal integrity analysis:
HSPICE W-elements
IBIS switches
Verilog AMS
De-embedding element for easy removal of test fixture effects
Impulse response model writer

ETA Dynaform 5.8


As tough market competition demands faster cycle times, lower software costs and lower user qualification thresholds, Engineering Technology Associates, Inc. (ETA) has developed a new tool, the INC Solver, to address these needs. The solver is included in DYNAFORM 5.7.3, released today.

To expaBody Side Simulationnd the usability of DYNAFORM’s Die Face Engineering (DFE) module, INC is a finite element analysis (FEA) solver designed for sheet metal forming simulations. It provides a value solution for customers who are looking for rapid die design and a virtual tryout tool that generates quick results, is easy to master, but does not sacrifice accuracy.

Tagged at “Best Practice” within INC, the solution pre-populates a set of default parameters produce accurate results. This feature provides a guided
process for inexperienced users; while more advanced users can adjust these default parameters to their preferences. Also, INC Solver requires very few manipulations overall to simulate a typical 3-piece draw analysis.

For die face design virtual tryout, the solver offers capabilities for simulating gravity-loading, binder-wrap, crash-form, single-action and double-action draw die, as well as springback prediction and lancing operations. INC solver supports non-conforming CAD surfaces and its fusion-fission approach handles mesh adaptivity effectively.

INC takes advantage of Intel’s latest multiple-core computing platform to make computing very affordable. For example, a 4-Core system costing under $1500 can process the most complicated large bodyside panel simulation in less than 50 minutes.

In addition to DFE, DYNAFORM includes three other modules, including DYNAFORM includes three other modules, including Blank Size Engineering (BSE), LS-DYNA-based Formability Simulation (FS) and LS-DYNA-based Die System Analysis (DSA). DYNAFORM is a complete die system simulation solution which allows organizations to bypass soft tooling, reducing overall tryout time, lowering costs, increasing productivity and providing confidence in die system design.
