Case Study: University of Illinois at Chicago achieves faster Hyperloop pod design with EMWorks software

University of Illinois at Chicago - Customer Case Study

The University of Illinois at Chicago's Chicago Hyperloop team needed to design a linear induction motor for a hyperloop pod but found legacy simulation software from Ansys and Comsol challenging to use. Their challenge was to efficiently design this complex electromagnetic system for an upcoming competition while streamlining their engineering workflow. They turned to EMWorks for a more intuitive simulation solution.

By implementing EMWorks' software, the team gained an intuitive tool with direct CAD integration within Inventor, which eliminated cumbersome file transfers and created a seamless workflow. This allowed the student team to drastically reduce time spent on learning the software and troubleshooting, freeing them to focus on engineering and optimization. The solution from EMWorks enabled them to easily visualize simulations and create compelling data graphs for their presentations, becoming an indispensable ally in their innovative project.
