Research & Development Excellence Grant Awarded to Young and Adams

ECE Professors Rob Adams and John Young have been awarded a grant from the Kentucky Science and Engineering Foundation’s Research and Development Excellence Program, entitled “Novel High-Fidelity Methods for Antenna and Circuit Modeling”. The award will support their continued development of new computational algorithms and tools for modeling the electromagnetic field interactions that occur in devices such as computer circuits and integrated antennas. Such devices are becoming increasingly complex, and computer modeling of their behavior is critical to maintaining continuous performance improvements. However, existing simulation technologies are sometimes unable to provide cost-effective solutions for these problems. This award will support the development of new simulation technologies to overcome the limitations of existing approaches.
