Altair for Electronic System Design (ESD)

Altair provides an industry-leading portfolio of multiphysics-enabled software to simulate a wide range of interacting physical models including fluid-structure interaction (FSI), flexible bodies, aeroacoustics, and thermomechanical simulation.

Altair offers industry-leading engineering analysis and optimization tools from simulation-driven design concepts to detailed virtual product validation, and simplified modeling workflows to advanced high-fidelity model building.

Altair PollEx is a PCB-level Electronic Design Automation (EDA) software suite covering design review, analysis and manufacturing. It significantly reduces development cycles while providing a common communication application between schematic engineers, PCB designers, CAE analysts, and manufacturing engineers.

Altair SimLab is a process oriented, feature based finite element modeling software that allows you to quickly and accurately simulate engineering behavior of complex assemblies. SimLab automates simulation-modeling tasks to reduce human errors and time spent manually creating finite element models and interpreting results. SimLab is not a traditional off-the-shelf pre- and post-processing software, but a vertical application development platform for capturing and automating simulation processes.

To meet time-to-market requirements and comply with product specifications, the virtual prototyping of EMC phenomena is widely performed in the early design stages. Altair provides complete simulation solutions to address these challenges for low and middle frequencies.

Power cables, power bars and busbars are used to distribute and transmit electrical energy through the grid. Their design must comply with several electromagnetic and thermal constraints to guarantee high performance, safety and efficiency. Altair offers the innovative Flux software to answer these challenges.

Capitalizing on thirty-five years of innovation in the global context of design optimization and time-to-market reduction, Flux finite element software provides solutions to low-frequency electromagnetic and thermal simulation problems. Flux includes an open and user-friendly interface that is easily coupled with other Altair software to address multiphysics problems for a variety of systems in 2D, 3D and Skew modeling situations.

Altair Feko is a leading electromagnetic simulation software that uses multiple frequency and time domain techniques. True hybridization of these methods enables the efficient analysis of a broad spectrum of electromagnetic problems mainly related to antenna design and placement, scattering, radar cross section (RCS) and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), including electromagnetic pulses (EMP), lightning effects, high intensity radiated fields (HIRF), and radiation hazard.

Altair Activate provides an open integration platform for modeling, simulating, and optimizing multi-disciplinary systems-of-systems using inherent 1D block diagrams.

The design of a high-performance e-Motor is a complex undertaking. Engineers have conflicting constraints to consider including efficiency, temperature, weight, size and cost. To explore more ideas, better understand their designs and improve performance, Altair HyperWorks™ has a workflow to guide motor designers through an efficient process of Simulation-Driven Design. This analysis and optimization solution supports multi-disciplinary teamwork and reduces design times.

Protection against the dangers of excessively high levels of radiation is an important part of any system design process that involves radio frequency (RF) transmitters.

Altair Embed is an intuitive graphical environment for model-based embedded development. Diagrams are automatically converted to highly-optimized and compact code, which is essential for low-cost microprocessors and high-speed sampling rates. The code can be verified, debugged, and tuned with off-line simulation before downloading it to the target microcontroller (MCU).
