Multi-physics is the new buzzword in semiconductor design and analysis, but the fuzziness of the term is a reflection of just how many new and existing problems need to be addressed simultaneously in ...

The semiconductor industry is at a pivotal moment as the limits of Moore’s Law motivate a transition to three-dimensional integrated circuit (3D IC) technology. By vertically integrating multiple ...

The introduction of full 3D-ICs will require a simultaneous analysis of various physical effects under different workloads, a step-function change that will add complexity at every step of the design ...

Dr. Maute’s research group is developing novel approaches to topology and shape optimization for nonlinear structural and coupled multi-physics problems, such as fluid-structure interaction and ...
