Electromagnetic compatibility using parallel parameterisation

Objective

The project will develop an innovative technique and tool for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) design using simulation on MIMD computers.

A main result of the project will be an optimisation tool allowing interactive simulation on CAD systems used in the initial design. It will allow EMC specialists directly to solve problems and interactively to obtain an optimal design. The technique and tool will be evaluated through the development of different industrial applications from different industrial sectors, namely aircraft, cars and helicopters. The validity of the technique will be established by comparing simulation results with measurements taken either in an anechoic chamber or in an open-air EMC test range. The software developed in the project will allow the European aeronautics and car industries to improve the quality of their EMC designs, to reduce cost of development and time to market of their products and to design safer products. The results of the project will be directly exploited by the partners.
