Industry renowned speaker and professor:

Dr. Bruce Archambeault

At

The Canton Summit on the Park

 

The IEEE EMCFest 2006 speaker information:

Dr. Bruce Archambeault is a distinguished engineer at IBM in Research Triangle Park, NC.  He received his B.S.E.E degree from the University of New Hampshire in 1977 and his M.S.E.E degree from Northeastern University in 1981.  He received his Ph. D. from the University of New Hampshire in 1997.  His doctoral research was in the area of computational electromagnetics applied to real-world EMC problems. 

 

In 1981 he joined Digital Equipment Corporation and through 1994 he had assignments ranging from EMC/TEMPEST product design and testing to developing computational electromagnetic EMC-related software tools.  In 1994 he joined SETH Corporation where he continued to develop computational electromagnetic EMC-related software tools and used them as a consulting engineer in a variety of different industries.  In 1997 he joined IBM in Raleigh, N.C. where he is the lead EMC engineer, responsible for EMC tool development and use on a variety of products.  During his career in the U.S. Air Force he was responsible for in-house communications security and TEMPEST/EMC related research and development projects.

Dr. Archambeault has authored or co-authored a number of papers in computational electromagnetics, mostly applied to real-world EMC applications.  He is currently a member of the Board of Directors for the  IEEE EMC Society and a past Board of Directors member for the Applied Computational Electromagnetics Society (ACES).  He has served as a past IEEE/EMCS Distinguished Lecturer and Associate Editor for the IEEE Transactions on Electromagnetic Compatibility.  He is the author of the book “PCB Design for Real-World EMI Control” and the lead author of the book titled “EMI/EMC Computational Modeling Handbook

The Program

EMC Fest '2006 sessions will cover the following:

Course Description The world of electromagnetics has become more difficult to make accurate measurements in a timely manner. Often, especially at high frequencies, it is very difficult to isolate different features from the physical problem, and be able to study and control the desired isolated features. Electromagnetic modeling can help to isolate important features, study the physics associated with this specific feature, and optimize the overall problem based on this new understanding of the physics of the specific features required. The old rules-of-thumb cannot be relied upon to ensure success. There is a new set of tools available to the engineer, which allows a more accurate estimation of the electromagnetic effects of a system, before that system is ever built. While the technology is not available today to completely analyze the entire system with a signal model, separate parts of the system can be successfully modeled and accurate results be obtained. This seminar provides a complete assessment of the various modeling techniques available today, and more importantly, provides a number of detailed examples of how-to create models for a wide variety of disciplines. Radiated emissions from printed circuit boards, cables, antennas, and other general devices are all discussed and demonstrated against real-world problems. It is extremely important that the use validate modeling/simulation results and so validation of modeling techniques and modeling codes are discussed, as well as standard modeling problems to allow engineers a more complete evaluation against potential vendor software packages. The seminar focuses heavily on practical, real-world problems, and provides the students with the ability to begin to do EMC modeling and simulation on their own. Intended Audience This course is intended for: -- Working engineers who are interested in using the latest state-of-the-art tools to help meet project cost and schedule requirements. -- Managers and engineers who are interested in obtaining a better understanding of electromagnetic computational modeling so they can better evaluate which commercially available software tool would best suit their needs. -- Developers of electromagnetic simulations software who would like a clearer understanding of the real-world types of problems facing their customers.

Tabletop exhibits will be open during registration, lunch, all breaks, and the reception. Access to tabletop displays is available during the sessions, but the displays may not be manned during those times.
