Teaching
QuickField is a powerful tool for professional engineers, designers and researchers, and also an ideal teaching tool for secondary school, undergraduate and graduate classrooms.
Broad applicability
Usable for teaching electromagnetics, heat transfer, stress analysis and more
No special training needed
Users don't need special training or a strong math background
Extremely simple interface
A short path from modeling and meshing to solving and postprocessing
QuickField lets teachers
- Explain the nature of the physical phenomena and processes being studied, and demonstrate how industrial devices work
- Visualize the field equations and formulas students have learned, building their “engineering intuition”
- Generate field distribution plots and animations under various operating conditions
- Assign student coursework built around example models or designs to be simulated
QuickField lets students
- Deepen their understanding of assigned coursework by studying various phenomena and processes
- Complete student research projects
- Build a basic understanding of modern CAD/CAE technology, starting from introductory finite element analysis
- Gain hands-on experience with a real engineering tool — experience that carries over into their careers
