🍂Happy Fall!🍂
In October, we published six blog posts highlighting how simulation and multiphysics tools drive real-world innovation—from EV battery cell engineering and ADAS development to MEMS SAW sensors, aerospace radomes and subsea pipeline design. The month also marked a leadership update, with new CEO Michelle Ash emphasizing AI, compute power and collaboration to accelerate SIMULIA’s future.
Here's what was published in October:
 | Battery Cell Engineering in Modern Vehicle DesignElectrification is fundamentally reshaping vehicle engineering, making simulation at the battery cell level now a key factor in innovation. The shift from internal combustion engines (ICEs) to electric vehicles (EVs) has introduced new design challenges and heightened safety requirements. Modern engineering increasingly relies on Multiphysics simulation—from electrochemistry to structural analysis—to drive optimal cell, module, pack, and full-vehicle designs. Let us explore how different methodologies in battery cell engineering can improve the design of batteries for efficient electric vehicles (EVs). 📖 Read the full blog |
 | Advancing MEMS SAW Gas Pressure Sensor Design with SIMULIA Abaqus and CST Studio SuiteMicroElectroMechanical Systems (MEMS) have revolutionized the semiconductor market since their development in the early 1990s, now accounting for approximately 20% of the global market. Among these, Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) devices stand out for their exceptional sensitivity and versatility in sensing applications. Our latest simulation study, utilizing SIMULIA Abaqus and SIMULIA CST Studio Suite, examines the performance analysis of a MEMS SAW gas pressure sensor, demonstrating a robust multiphysics simulation workflow. 📖 Read the full blog |
