The emGine Environment is a full-wave 3D electromagnetic simulation environment solving Maxwell's equations in time-domain. It is used for the modeling of high-frequency electromagnetic field in microwave circuits, antennas, resonators, hollow waveguides, etc.

The emGine Environment is provided free for non-commercial purposes (see the licenses for more details) and consists of the following components:

• Time-domain full-wave 3D electromagnetic simulator tlmGine
• Open Source Graphical User Interface emGine GUI for the input, pre-processing and post-processing of electromagnetic models (tri-license MPL/GPL/LGPL)
• EMM - ElectroMagnetic Model specification

The development of the emGine Environment is focused to have following features:

• Accuracy
• Speed, support for multi-core computations
• Portability - the emGine Environment is running on multiple platforms (Windows, Linux, MacOS X)
• Open standards and interoperability, e.g., Open Source GUI, XML-based EMM specification
• User-friendly handling

Testing release 0.7.5 is available for download. The new features in this release are:

• Plane wave excitation in free-space
• Import of planar multilayer GDSII (stream) geometry - for editing and creation of GDSII files you can use the great free layout editor
• Improved computation of S-Parameters from time-domain signals
• Export of S-Parameters in touchstone (s1p, s2p, etc..) format
• New cool docking window manager (take a look at the screenshots!)

Testing release 0.7.4 is available for download. The new features in this release include:

• Boundary conditions (PEC/PMC/Open) setup for outer boundaries of the simulation region
• A great Smith Chart plotting object in matplotlib which was contributed by Sherif Sayed Ahmed - take a look at the screenshots! Great work, many thanks!
• Switching between perspective/orthogonal view
• Top/Bottom/Front/Back/Left/Right predefined views
