Topic: Electromagnetic Device CAD in the Presence of Uncertainty and Variability in Device Parameters
State-of-the-art electromagnetic (EM) field solvers and CAD tools are empowering high-frequency electronics designers with unprecedented capability and expediency in EM device conceptualization, design, optimization and prototyping. In using such tools, the designer often assumes a deterministic definition of the device, despite the fact that device parameter uncertainty, stemming, for example, from material property variations, manufacturing uncertainty, and changes in operational conditions, suggest that a statistical approach to such modeling makes better sense. While Monte Carlo (MC) techniques offer for such a statistical modeling, the computational cost associated with them is often considered a hinder for their use. The objective of this talk is to discuss latest advances in modeling accounting for uncertainty/variability that reduce the computational cost of MC and, in view of their generality and seamless compatibility with popular numerical techniques, they promise to enable efficient statistical modeling capability within the familiar environment of state-of-the-art EM CAD tools
Biography: Andreas Cangellaris is M. E. Van Valkenburg Professor and Head in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. Professor Cangellaris received his Diploma in Electrical Engineering from the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece, in 1981, and the MS and PhD degrees in Electrical Engineering from the University of California, Berkeley, in 1983 and 1985. He has spent over twenty years in academia, first at the University of Arizona (1987-1997) and then at the University of Illinois (1997 – to date). Professor Cangellaris’ current teaching and research interests include computational electromagnetics; CAD methodologies and tools for high-speed/high-frequency electronic components and systems; EMI/EMC modeling and simulation; and modeling methodologies and tools for MEMS CAD. Professor Cangellaris is a Fellow of IEEE and serves as Editor of the IEEE Press Series on Electromagnetic Field Theory. In 2005 he received the Alexander von Humboldt Research Award from Germany for his contributions to engineering applications of electromagnetic field theory.
