Integrated Engineering Software

About INTEGRATED:

INTEGRATED is a leading developer of hybrid simulation tools for design analysis.
Founded in 1984, INTEGRATED provides a complete line of fully integrated 2 and 3 dimensional simulation software. Easy to use, INTEGRATED’ products allow engineers and scientists to design, simulate and optimize complex electromagnetic devices and systems on the computer before building a physical prototype.

Simulation software allows professionals to design via computer simulations thereby reducing costs and risks associated with physical prototyping. It allows companies to reduce design time and costs, spend less money on expensive prototypes, improve product performance, decrease time to market and ultimately increase profitability.

INTEGRATED is staffed with leading R&D engineers in electrical engineering, magnetics, and high frequency applications. The company provides its expertise in the electromagnetic, electromechanical and electrothermal analysis software field for the industrial, automotive, medical, telecommunications, power and aerospace markets.

The INTEGRATED Advantage

Maximum Versatility of Field Solvers

BEM, FEM or Hybrid; Choose the Right Tool for Your Application

Since 1984, INTEGRATED has been the industry leader in Boundary Element Method (BEM) CAE software. BEM not only provides the most accurate numerical field solutions, but also is the method of choice for problems involving large open regions.

In contrast, field solvers using the Finite Element Method (FEM) often require artificial “smoothing” algorithms to average out numerical errors. In addition, artificial boundaries must be used to handle open region problems, and even then, the large meshes required may lead to excessively long solution times.

However, the relative simplicity of implementation of FEM solvers leads to advantages when complex nonlinear or transient analysis is required. FEM very often provides sufficient accuracy for engineering purposes, and many problems are by their nature inherently closed region. Recognizing this, INTEGRATED incorporated FEM solvers to provide users the choice of both methods. A significant side benefit of having both BEM and FEM solvers is the ability to check the validity of solutions using two completely different analysis methods.

The most challenging analysis problems occur when both nonlinearities and open regions are present. Here again INTEGRATED takes the lead providing HYBRID field solutions using BEM and FEM simultaneously to exploit the strengths of both methods
