I used Elmer FEM software to visualize the mechanical stress in a PCB that is mounted on an aluminum heat sink. The material stress is caused by the different thermal expansion coefficients. This is why we should not place ceramic capacitors close to mounting holes 😬

I´m experimenting with using ultrasonic surface waves on the trackpad of the laptop project to enable multi-touch haptic feedback. This should make it possible to generate haptic feedback under individual fingers for multi-touch gestures. Elmer FEM software is a really helpful tool to

Nice tutorial! Happy to have Elmer included in your workflow!

Honored to be on the podium! ElmerFEM is #3 of 31,596 Fortran projects on GitHub.

I want to test different antenna locations in my laptop design for best directionality and gain. I´m currently testing the EM solver integrated into Elmer FEM software to see if I can extract the necessary information.

I´m currently trying to model the magnets embedded into the lid of my laptop design. The goal is to calculate the force exerted on the lid in the closed position. I´m using Elmer FEM software for this simulation

Open-source vs. commercial simulation tool. While the setup time for the open-source tool was much longer, the output accuracy for a DC PDN simulation is on par with the professional tool. Comparison with real world measurement will follow

Experimenting with Elmer FEM software and Blender 🔶 ! Below is a simulation of a two-turn inductor at 1MHz. You can see the current is focused on edges and the electric field is between the turns Daniel Bogdanoff hackaday FreeCAD (CAD+CAM+FEA) #electronics #Simulation #hardware

Simulation results can look beautiful 😊 What you can see here is the PDN analysis of a power supply trace simulated with the awesome open-source tool Elmer-FEM. We used a coupled heat solver to calculate the temperature rise of the trace.

I´ve finished the trackpad mechanical draft. I added two flex coils (inspired by Carl Bugeja 😄) for potential haptic feedback in the future. I´ve simulated the magnetic field using Elmer FEM software. Next step is to calculate the forces and couple these results into a elasticity solver
