 | Used as a tuning element, a high tolerance is often required on a low capacitance value. |
 | Microwave capacitors must be small enough to be considered lumped elements. |
 | The element denoted "C" in the model is the nominal capacitance value, the rest of the elements are considered parasitics. |
| Femtools Model Update (1440 words) |
 | Model updating works by modifying the mass, stiffness, and damping parameters of the FE model until an improved agreement between FEA data and test data is achieved. |
 | Unlike direct methods, producing a mathematical model capable of reproducing a given state, the goal of FE model updating is to achieve an improved match between model and test data by making physically meaningful changes to model parameters which correct inaccurate modeling assumptions. |
 | The FE model is then reformed using the new values of the update parameters, and the process repeats until some convergence criteria, analyzed by means of correlation functions, is met. |
