Can you trust your simulations?

The reliability of EM simulation results is always in discussion, so you can imagine I was interested to read a piece on "The importance of full wave simulation validation" on the Interference technology website (Bruce Archambault and Samuel Connor) this month. They put forward the case for validation, arguing that "regardless of the accuracy of the modeling tool, each modeling exercise requires some level of validation before simulation results can be trusted." In the summany, they stress that "Multiple simulation techniques applied to the same model is a good way to insure that the correct physics are included in the model and that the appropriate physics are modeled correctly."

Take a look and read it for yourself.
