  • Thermal Management: Lighting, Battery, and Enclosure Cooling Projects

    Many of the technological innovations on the market today can credit their success to the particular lighting, battery, and enclosure cooling strategy that was tried, tested, and ultimately employed early in the design process. Modern-day tech devices are becoming smaller and smaller. Therefore, their dependency on dissipating large amounts of heat from their increasingly compact…

  • Simulation in the Cloud: Tips for a Seamless Migration

    Most computer-aided engineering (CAE) software solutions on the market are the traditional, on-premises ones. In recent years, however, many companies have moved or are preparing to move to cloud-based simulation tools, stepping into the new digital world and workplace.  Despite the wide range of simulation features and highly developed technology, on-premises CAE software is accompanied…

  • 3 Places Where Your Design Process Is Slowing Your Time to Delivery

    In today’s increasingly competitive landscape, it seems as though there are even more pitfalls to potentially fall into, in an engineer’s design process. Ultimately, these hurdles can cause teams to miss their deadlines, and come up short in the final stage. Maybe you’re familiar with these outcomes; a project isn’t delivered on time, within budget,…
