A Recipe for Success at Whirlpool Corporation
Engineers at Whirlpool Corporation and the GREENKITCHEN European green energy initiative project used multiphysics simulation to improve energy efficiency in kitchen appliances.

Converting the High Flux Isotope Reactor to LEU Fuel
Learn about an initiative that requires nuclear research reactors currently using highly enriched uranium fuel to be converted to low enriched uranium fuel — and how simulation can help.

Seas of Change for Wind Turbines
One benefit of placing wind turbines offshore? They can’t be heard! Even better? High winds occur with more regularity offshore, making energy production more effective!

Powering Particle Physics Research at Fermilab
Researchers at Fermilab had an important question: Would upgrading the booster RF cavities in their particle accelerator cause them to overheat? To find answers, they turned to simulation…

Understanding Drug-Eluting Stents at Boston Scientific
Stents open plaque-blocked arteries, but when an excessive amount of tissue grows over a bare metal arterial stent, it can cause the artery to narrow again in a process called restenosis.

Air Pressure Sensor Performance Relies on a Solid Design
Ever wonder how your car can tell when there’s low pressure in a tire? Sensors are placed at the bottom of each tire hub and measure air pressure automatically while the car is in motion.

POWER Prevents Corona Discharge in Power Lines
POWER Engineers, a global engineering consulting firm, used multiphysics simulation to study if and where corona discharge occurs in power lines and their associated assemblies.

Cable Simulations Spark New Developments at Prysmian Group
The Prysmian Group, a leader in cable systems for many different industries, are using simulation to improve their development process, save resources, and optimize their cable designs.
