OPTIMIZER

MULTI-PARAMETER MULTI-GOAL OPTIMIZER

The SEMCAD X Matterhorn incorporates new effective and easy-to use optimizer platform, dedicated suite/toolkit for optimization and/or tuning of virtual prototypes. The optimizer includes global optimization methods such as stochastic response surface methods for real-world engineering applications. SEMCAD X Matterhorn combines the superior speed of HPC enabled solvers with powerful optimizer and sweeper to perform the effective optimization of entire CAD derived devices, embedded in complex environments.

The optimizer provides both guided mode for easy setup with predefined goals and expert mode for full customization through pipeline in workbench. Multiple objectives and constraints such as reflection coefficient, averaged specific absorption rate (SAR), radiation efficiency can be expressed as mathematical expressions. The user can specify multiple design variables including geometry, material parameters and lumped elements.
