From theory to development: Role of multiphysics modeling and its effect on education in electronics

Abstract

Electronics engineering is a very rapidly growing field, as the time passes the requirement of more advance technologies increase. There are a lot of institutions and universities around the world that provide quality education to different fields of engineering. The courses that electronics engineers study need practical exposure as well to cope up with industrial demands. In this paper, the role of multiphysics modeling and its impact on engineering education is demonstrated. Finite element modeling (FEM) tools are very powerful tools and due to there huge advantages, electronics graduates should study these tools in their course curriculum to know how to tackle various types of physics problems and through examples it is demonstrated that how these tools can help shift from just theory to development process.
