Computational Electromagnetics
Computational Electromagnetics, or CEM, is the science of modelling how electromagnetic fields interact with the environment, with physical objects, and with each other. CEM uses powerful computers to perform calculations using Maxwell’s equations and can work out radar cross sections, antenna performance and electromagnetic compatibility.
ESI has been assisting customers in the world of CEM since 2011. In 2012, the application was upgraded by combining the best attributes of the company’s CEM Solution simulation application and the original Efield solution. The combined package offers a complete environment for CEM.
The wide context of Computational Em (Electromagnetic)
Manufacturers in diverse sectors such as aerospace, automotive engineering and electronics have to contend with strict guidelines for the electromagnetic properties of their products. These attributes can be incredibly difficult to model, making prototyping such designs a time-consuming and expensive process. Using computational electromagnetics software automates these processes and allows engineers to test new designs in a virtual environment, without the time and expense of physical prototyping. This makes it far easier for ESI clients to bring new products to market that meet legislation.
A respected name in computational electromagnetics
ESI Group has long led the field in virtual prototyping and virtual product design and engineering. The company has recognized expertise in the physics of materials and has used this knowledge to create an open and collaborative environment offering end-to-end virtual prototyping. The company uses immersive virtual 3D technologies to bring designs to life and help customers make the right decisions at the earliest possible stage and throughout the entire design process. In doing so, ESI frees up engineers to be more innovative and create better products without the hassle of time constraints or the expense associated with developing physical prototypes.
A history in computational electromagnetics
ESI Group was founded by four young PhD graduates who met at UC Berkeley. The company is headquartered in Paris, France and it is renowned for its expertise in the new discipline of virtual product design. From humble beginnings, the company’s growing reputation was matched by a growing staff, which today accounts for more than 1,000 specialists. Today, the company works with clients in 40 countries and is active in diverse industry sectors such as defense, aerospace, manufacturing, energy, marine engineering, consumer goods and electronics. ESI specializes in creating industry-focused solutions that deliver tangible benefits to their clients.
