  • Publication number: 20200167440
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus determines internal/external surface information indicating whether each surface of a structure specified by structure data is internally exposed on the stricture or externally exposed on the structure based on a form coefficient. The information processing apparatus performs a thermal analysis on the structure based on the internal/external surface information and the form coefficient.

  • Patent number: 8954305
    Abstract: A circuit simulation apparatus acquires wiring connection information indicating connection data in an electric circuit, selects a component constituting the circuit based on the wiring connection information, performs a setting of replacing the selected component with each resistor having different resistance values, generates at least one of netlists using the acquired wiring connection information and at least one of the set resistance values, calculates a value of an equivalent power source and a value of an internal resistance thereof for a part of the circuit using the acquired wiring connection information and at least one of the generated netlists, and calculates a resistance value of the selected component and a power consumption for the resistance value using the value of the equivalent power source and the value of the internal resistance.
