CST2009版改進或新增功能(來自MicroWave Journal)
1、友好的前端建模,如增加了彎折貼片功能,在天線領域尤為實用,與實際工程上的操作如出一轍,如下圖。
2、增加了Nastran、Gerber和GDSII的導出功能。
3、MWS中頻域有限元求解器采用全新的四面體自適應網(wǎng)格,更加逼近原始的光滑模型。如圖,傳統(tǒng)的四面體
網(wǎng)格只是將圓等效為一個近似的正多邊形,而新四面體網(wǎng)格能使圓的邊界更加逼真、精確。
4、新增工作室PCB和CABLE使CST產(chǎn)品線更加完善。
5、真正意義上的純瞬態(tài)場路協(xié)同仿真。
看上去很不錯啊,希望能早點用上它
依照CST以往的慣例,....出了 2009之後,很快就會有 SP1......SP2.......! :18de
真是很不錯,這些功能很誘人,希望仿真功能也一樣。
呵呵,新版本bug 較多,補丁也多。
