Design and analyze conductors and resistors with EM simulation
This note uses EMWorks Electric Conduction to compute resistance, electric field, current density and potential in a laser-trimmed resistor backed by a conductive slab under fixed voltage.
This application note uses EMWorks to extract parasitic capacitance, DC and AC resistance, and inductance from a PCB with parallel copper traces on an FR4 substrate. Electrostatic, magnetostatic, and AC magnetic studies are combined to compute R, L, and C, including skin effect via a reduced 1/20 model, and the results are validated against published reference data for EMI modeling.
Helmholtz coils generate highly uniform magnetic fields for biomagnetic and seed research. This example shows how to model, mesh, and simulate AC and DC excitation to validate field uniformity along the coil axis.
Analyze how an automotive fuse responds to overload by tracking electric field, current density, and temperature rise in the zinc element. Use electrothermal simulation to predict melting behavior, locate hotspots, and verify that fuse ratings provide reliable circuit protection under fault conditions.
