More Gain, Less Pain
Wearers of some hearing aids experience electromagnetic interference (EMI) problems with conventional omnidirectional cell phone antennas. The Vortis antenna overcomes these problems. Using simulation, Vortis can design a more efficient cell phone antenna in up to 90 percent less time. Read the article or view the video.

Eastman Chemical Saves Millions Annually
Eastman Chemical Company uses simulation to tackle issues that include why equipment isn't behaving as expected, how to ensure optimal output and R&D ― if we change something, what will happen? The company requires proven software with applicable, trusted models.

Eye in the Sky
Engineers from Piaggio Aero faced the challenge of transforming the company’s conventional manned executive jet into an unmanned aircraft. This was accomplished with a strictly controlled number of engineers to limit overhead and succeeded in a very short time using ANSYS SCADE software.

Supercomputing Milestones via Partnerships
A recent report from the Council on Competitiveness revealed that software scalability was cited by US companies that use HPC as the second-most significant limiting factor in reaching 1,000-fold improvement in performance (next to the cost of the hardware). In this blog post, Wim Slagter explains how supercomputing partnerships can help overcome this barrier for computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations.

Simulation Confirms Your Mom Was Right – Cover Up When Sneezing!
You should sit very far behind a sick passenger on an airplane. Researchers at the FAA Center of Excellence at Purdue University created a simulation of a sneezing passenger using ANSYS to study the mechanics of pathogen travel in airplane cabins.
