Modeling trends
Advancements in simulation methods and computer hardware have led to
the following trends:
Component/sub–assembly simulation assembly/system level simulation
Single physics simulation multiphysics simulation
Linear/moderately nonlinear simulation highly nonlinear simulation
Design evaluation/verification design optimization
Homogenous computer resource diverse computer resources
Modeling as a luxury modeling as a necessity
Modeling as a competitive advantage modeling as a competitive imperative

Differentiation
Since the barriers to adoption of modeling methods have largely been
eliminated, companies must differentiate themselves from their
competitors through:
Early and broad adoption
Efficiency
Training and retaining staff
Standardizing and automating repetitive modeling tasks
Sophistication
Use of scripting languages and user–defined subroutines
Ability to use “advanced” features with confidence
Consistent investment in high–performance computing platforms

3M “Safety–Ring” technology
minimizes current density
concentrations, allowing smaller pads
to be used, and permitting more
flexibility in pad placement and
orientation
Modeling was used to explore a large
design space, effectively evaluating
the behavior of hundreds of plate
designs on dozens of test subjects
The resulting product is now the
market–leader

The unique optical properties
achievable with multilayered films have
enabled the generation of a wide range
of products that literally break the laws
of physics
Modeling was critical to understanding
the optical properties (and potential) of
multilayered film constructions
Modeling was also critical in the design
of the tentering, manifold, and die
systems required to produce these
films
