3. Simulation-based approach to EMC
3.1 EMC CAD and simulation
The contribution of software tools has become increasingly widespread in the product or system design process. Figure 29 shows a simplified design flow: starting with a specification that defines the functional performance, mechanical topological constraints and standards to be met, a large part of the design is carried out using CAD (computer-aided design) tools. The automotive and aerospace industries are prime examples of this practice. However, EMC constraints are often not taken into account until the second phase, when a prototype exists on which EMC investigations can be applied.

Events
Colloque International sur la compatibilité électromagnétique (next: CEM'2010), held every even-numbered year, is a French-language conference that brings together the entire French-speaking EMC community.
The IEEE symposium on EMC is held annually in the summer in the USA.
The RF Hyper trade show is held annually in autumn in Paris.
Standards and norms
Standards and normative documents are available in France from AFNOR for non-electrical documents, and from AFNOR for electrical documents translated into French. For documents concerning electricity and therefore electromagnetic compatibility, international documents are available from UTE. They are in French (left-hand page) and English (right-hand page) for IEC and CISPR documents. Both languages carry the same...
