AltaSim Technologies Teams with Forensic Engineers to Find Failure Points

By Dr. Kyle Koppenhoefer and Dr. Scott Anson We’ve all read the accounts in newspapers and online about manufacturing plants or production facilities that have had incidents or mishaps. It quickly becomes a critical issue when something unexpected happens, causing a system-wide or partial shutdown. Each minute offline means losses throughout the company. At that

Multiphysics Simulation to Improve Manufacturing of Semiconductors

We all love the benefits of improved electronics. Our cell phones are smaller, faster, use less power, and can be used all day without having to recharge. They also have higher performance, and the underlying technologies have also improved. But as they have grown smaller and improved, the need for electroplating to become more precise

Develop Designs to Minimize Corrosion with Electrochemical Simulations

The human body is a marvel of biological engineering, and one of its natural processes—sweating—plays a vital role in regulating body temperature. But human sweat, this seemingly innocuous liquid, is more than just water; it’s a complex solution of minerals, lactate, and urea, with sodium chloride being a major component. When sweat interacts with the
