​​​​​​​We were delighted to have Scott Piper from General Motors present at the 2022 SIMULIA Great Lakes Regional User Meeting, June 8, 2022.

Abstract: Electromagnetic compatibility or EMC of electronic components have been a major focus as wireless technology proliferates industry. For various reasons many electronic products designed today are encased in a metallic enclosure. This enclosure is often viewed as a shield for unwanted electromagnetic energy to radiate from the product or radiate into the product from the outside. While this assumption may hold true in some cases there are factors to consider in a case design that will help or hurt the electromagnetic shielding performance. This presentation explains and demonstrates aspects of shielding for electromagnetic interference and how these enclosures can be modeled using CST Studio Suite.

Biography: Scott Piper received a Bachelor’s of Science in Electrical Engineering in 2004 from the University of Michigan – Dearborn. Scott has since worked in both aerospace and automotive industries and has been the primary engineer responsible for the initial purchase and implementation of electromagnetic simulation tools for electromagnetic compatibility in two corporations. Scott chairs the Electromagnetics and Antennas session of the SAE world congress and he is currently the chair of the IEEE EMC Society’s technical committee on computational electromagnetics. Scott currently is employed by General Motors responsible for the development and implementation of electromagnetic simulation methods globally within the company.
