InCa3D

{{Short description|Electronic simulation software}}

InCa3D is a simulation tool dedicated to electrical connection modelling for both:

• Power electronics

The software employs finite element analysis based on the PEEC Partial element equivalent circuit method A. E. Ruehli: Equivalent Circuit Models for Three-Dimensional Multiconductor Systems, IEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory and Techniques, Vol. 22 (1974), Nr. 3 which proved to be efficient to solve Maxwell's equations in low and middle frequency, thanks to its ability to convert interconnections geometry into equivalent RLC circuit,[http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/search/freesrchabstract.jsp?tp=&arnumber=4783443&queryText%3Dardon%26searchWithin%3Dvialardi%26refinements%3D4287376107%2C4287730583%26openedRefinements%3D*%26searchField%3DSearch+All MoM and PEEC Method to Reach a Complete Equivalent Circuit of a Static Converter]{{dead link|date=September 2024|bot=medic}}{{cbignore|bot=medic}} 2009 20th International Zurich Symposium, Jan. 2009] thus avoiding polygonal meshing of the air around the device.

InCa3D is developed in France (in collaboration with G2ELab) and distributed by Altair Engineering Inc.[https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/search/freesrchabstract.jsp?tp=&arnumber=4783443&queryText%3Dardon%26searchWithin%3Dvialardi%26refinements%3D4287376107%2C4287730583%26openedRefinements%3D*%26searchField%3DSearch+All MoM and PEEC Method to Reach a Complete Equivalent Circuit of a Static Converter, 2009 20th International Zurich Symposium, Jan. 2009]
