Introduction to Electromagnetic Simulation in 3DEXPERIENCE

Electromagnetic simulation is essential for designing and validating products that interact with electric and magnetic fields. With increasing demand for connectivity and energy efficiency, understanding how electromagnetic waves behave within your product is no longer optional. The SIMULIA Electromagnetics Engineer on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform offers strong tools for simulating complex electromagnetic behavior. This helps teams find problems early, improve performance, and meet industry standards like EMI and EMC.

What sets 3DEXPERIENCE apart is its unified, cloud-based environment that connects simulation, design, and data management. Engineers can import CAD models directly from SOLIDWORKS, set up electromagnetic studies, and collaborate in real time across departments. From early concept to final validation, 3DEXPERIENCE enables seamless integration between design and simulation.

The Value of Electromagnetic Simulation

Electromagnetic simulation delivers more than just technical insight. It drives smarter, faster product development. By virtually testing designs early in the process, engineers can identify issues like signal degradation, interference, or energy loss before physical prototyping begins.

This reduces development costs and time to market, but also leads to better-performing products with higher reliability. Whether you're optimizing an antenna’s range or ensuring EMC compliance, SIMULIA Electromagnetics Engineer provides the accuracy and depth needed to make critical decisions with confidence.

On the business side, the 3DEXPERIENCE platform adds strategic value through its collaborative, model-based approach. Teams across mechanical, electrical, and simulation disciplines work from a single source of truth, ensuring alignment and reducing rework.

Key Capabilities of SIMULIA Electromagnetics Engineer

Much like SOLIDWORKS Simulation, SIMULIA Electromagnetics Engineer integrates well within the SOLIDWORKS ecosystem. Built natively on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, it delivers core functionality like:

• Full-wave 3D electromagnetic field simulation using advanced solvers like CST Studio Suite

• Antenna design and placement analysis in real-world environments (e.g., vehicles, enclosures, wearables)

• Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and interference (EMI) analysis to meet regulatory standards

• Signal integrity (SI) and power integrity (PI) analysis for high-speed PCB and electronics design

• Coupled multiphysics simulations (e.g., thermal, structural, EM) for realistic performance predictions

• Seamless CAD integration with SOLIDWORKS, CATIA, and other design platforms

• High-performance computing (HPC) options, both local and cloud-based, for faster simulation runtimes

• Centralized collaboration, version control, and data management through the 3DEXPERIENCE platform
