Tackling biological system simulation
The MathWorks has launched the latest version of SimBiology, with new features and enhanced capabilities, including multiple dosing schemes, for pharmacokinetic/ pharmacodynamic modelling and simulation of biological systems. Pharmacokineticists and computational biologists use SimBiology to create, simulate, and analyse both mechanistic and PK/PD models in one software environment. SimBiology simplifies the modelling workflow and reduces simulation and fitting times by providing a graphical interface for mechanistic models. With the new enhancements, users can select from multiple fitting algorithms, including stochastic approximation expectation- maximisation (SAEM), and compare
results with other fitting algorithms. The tool’s graphical interface also now enables users to apply multiple dosing schemes to their models, eliminating the need to manually schedule dosing.
New features include: SAEM algorithm for fitting population data; support for applying multiple dosing schemes to a model; enhanced support for importing NONMEM formatted files; and a new mode for accelerating simulation.

Updated simulation software
Integrated Engineering Software has released version 9.0 of its simulation software, which includes general enhancements to make accurate modelling easier and faster. Visualisation tools have had major enhancements including being able
to pre-define output/output manager structure for the natural flow of design/simulation enabling better management of multiple plots. There are faster and more robust geometry operation capabilities in both 2D and 3D programs and an Enhanced Time Modeler to simulate various types of signals and sources in time domain. Integrated has enhanced the coils/ windings feature in its magnetic programs and users can now evaluate the force/torque on bodies due to external static. For customers using the Tecplot plotting package to generate 2D and 3D plots from raw calculated data, format data export is available. Users who choose to view and manipulate their plots in Tecplot can export plots from Integrated applications to be opened in Tecplot, where they can further manipulate and view the data.
Transient capabilities have been extended to Integrated’s 3D programs electrostatic (Coulomb), eddy current (Faraday) and heat transfer (Celsius) solvers. There have been significant improvements made to matrix solvers and pre-conditioners for large, dense or sparse matrices, generated from BEM or FEM.
Lorentz, Integrated’s 2D/3D electromagnetic analysis and hybrid simulation software, has been upgraded with a new Graphical User Interface (GUI) and simulation flow. It has an improved emission model with new combined emission model, enhanced ODE solver and ray- geometric intersection methods. Due for release later in 2010, Chronos is Integrated’s powerful new time domain field solver for modelling RF and antenna applications.
