CST Studio Suite 2014 includes features to automate the creation of SAM projects for common design tasks, such as antenna placement, emissions analysis and thermal detuning. Multiphysics workflows, which combine full-wave EM simulation with thermal simulation, can now be created using the wizard from the schematic view. All solvers are set up and connected, and the entire simulation started with a single click. For simulations with temperature dependent materials, SAM permits simulations to be iterated until convergence is achieved. Mechanical simulations can be added to the workflow, permitting expansion and detuning effects to be calculated. All solvers are integrated in the same parametric 3D modelling GUI, making parameter studies and optimization runs including EM-thermal couplings possible
