Course detail
Numerical Modeling Fundamentals
FEKT-MPA-NMFAcad. year: 2022/2023
Students will learn basic principles of optimization and how to use them to solve design tasks. Next, students will be taught basic principles of numerical modeling of electromagnetic and mechanical structures. Students will be able to model and design those structures in the MATLAB and HFSS modeling environment. Theoretical background achieved in preceding subjects (antennas, filters, guides, amplifiers...) will be verified by practical CAD design. Students will apply obtained skills to elaborate an individual project - students will design and simulate selected microwave or mechanical structure.
