CST – Computer Simulation Technology

With rapid growth on the West Coast, CST is increasing staff and moving to expanded premises at 303 Triwn Dolphin Drive, Redwood City, CA. The office includes a large training facility and easy access from all parts of the Bay Area.  The move from our current San Bruno location will be completed on Feb 1st 2007.

The release version of CST STUDIO SUITE™ 2006B is now ready for shipment. CST customers will be provided with details of the new version and the shipment process in CST's e-newsletter.

The CST University Publication Award is an annual grant to university institutes and researchers for their work in the application of 3D EM field simulation. In this its third year, the award attracted double the number of contributions than in 2005, and the quality of the publications was outstanding. Prerequisites for participation are that the papers are authored or co-authored by academic researchers, published either in scientific journals or conference proceedings, and the numerical results are entirely or in part obtained through simulation using CST software products.

Computer Simulation Technology (CST) and Acceleware Corp. (trading symbol “AXE” on TSXV) announce their channel arrangement and availability of Acceleware’s hardware acceleration solution for CST’s market and technology leading Time Domain solver within CST MICROWAVE STUDIO® 2006 (CST MWS).

A key concern in industry’s R&D departments is the time required to bring a design idea to the virtual prototype stage. Speeding up design cycles and optimizations is crucial to achieving improvements in R&D throughput and productivity. Acceleware’s technology significantly reduces simulation run times and opens up new dimensions for design and development engineers relying on the accuracy and versatility of CST’s market leading Time Domain solver.

CST will be demonstrating the upcoming release of CST STUDIO SUITE™ version 2006B, including the industry standard 3D EM Time Domain tool, CST MICROWAVE STUDIO®, at booths #307, 309, 406 at EuMW 2006.

Enhanced performance and robustness characterize the Time Domain solver in version 2006B of CST MWS, thanks to the new Fast PBA mesher and the new flexible subgridding scheme with drastically reduced memory requirements. Additionally, the transient solver engine will be the first CST MWS module to be made available to run on Linux operating systems.

Computer Simulation Technology (CST) enhances CST MICROWAVE STUDIO® (CST MWS)’s palette of high frequency solvers for 3D EM simulation by the addition of an Integral Equation solver, based on the Multilevel Fast Multipole Method (MLFMM). The beta version of this solver, dedicated to tackle electrically large structures, is demonstrated at EuMW 2006, booth #309.

R&D engineers dealing with electrically large structures, will be interested in CST's new Integral Equation solver based on the Multilevel Fast Multipole Method (MLFMM). It is designed to facilitate tasks like antenna placement on an airplane (or car) and radar cross section (RCS) calculations of large scattering objects.
