Release notes
v4.0.0 (January 7, 2025)
Features:
- Implemented periodic structure support for Phased Array simulations
- Implemented Fast Frequency Sweep
Improvements:
- Changed solver from GetDP to NGsolve for greatly improved stability and simulation speed
- Removal of parallel process calculation
- Updated Thin PCB detection when importing CAD file
- Excitation type removed
- Simultaneous excitation has been eliminated in favor of postprocessing of sequential excitation results, but can now be done in postprocessing
- Implemented lumped element losses
- Added active S-parameters charts section in all multiport simulations
- Implemented Hard Stop to immediately stop the simulation process
- Model outline can now be scaled and repositioned in the radiation patterns window
- Improved error message handling and user experience
Bugfixes:
- Fixed issue with multiple coaxial ports
- Fixed issue where phase shifting did not work in coaxial port cases
- Fixed incorrect Gain values in multiple port Simultaneous Excitation cases
- Fixed issue where airbox domain is eliminated when replacing CAD geometry
- Compressing the case with results is disabled if they do not exist
- Fixed issue when sending the geometry from FreeCAD to CENOS if the case has not been saved
- Improved the case saving process to prevent corrupted files
- Adjustment in case warning saved when closing case
- Geometry variables can now be updated in the physics from the first attempt
- Parametric study now can be stopped
- Fixed issue where the 'Import CAD' button in CENOS did not work when creating a case using the Geometry Editor approach
- Combined results of a parametric study can now be opened after deleting a subcase
- Fixed impedance normalization in Smith Chart
- The frequency step change no longer affects the mesh
- Fixed the overlap of scales in the electric/magnetic field
- Fixed Kernel error due to missing VC++ redistributables
- Fixed issue where recalculated results would not open correctly when one of the ports was removed
