Welcome to the PF. Is this for a school project? What do you know about Ansoft so far? What learning resources do you have available for this project?
 
Here's a coincidence, I just got an e-mail from Ansoft about an upcoming webinar on simulating circuits and systems for electric vehicles. Might have some applicability to your question:

I have always found Ansoft and ADS to be very knowledgeable and helpful when it comes to asking questions about how to use their software for modeling. E-mailing them directly goes a long way.

Very basic question. Consider a 3-terminal device with terminals say A,B,C. Kirchhoff Current Law (KCL) and Kirchhoff Voltage Law (KVL) establish two relationships between the 3 currents entering the terminals and the 3 terminal's voltage pairs respectively. So we have 2 equations in 6 unknowns. To proceed further we need two more (independent) equations in order to solve the circuit the 3-terminal device is connected to (basically one treats such a device as an unbalanced two-port...
Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'
I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...
