1. How to access HFSS via vlabs
This semester you will be doing a design project using ANSYS modeling tool. Here are the options as to how you can access this software:
- It is available in all the engineering academic labs
- You may also go here:vabs.uml.eduand use it from anywhere in the world on any device. The login is your e-mail account and you choose vlabs engineering. You can choose either client or HTML, the client install is for people who have their own PC.
- YOu must log on with your email credentials (full email address, includingstudent.uml.edu part)
- CHoose VLABS Engineering
- Once the client comes up, go to start and go to ANSYS menu GO to Workbench and within Workbench click HFSS. Once there, click on Geometry (or someting else in the menu of the HFSS) and then the Electronics Desktop will open up. That is HFSS!!!
- then go to Insert HFSS Design and begin to play:)
- you must log off from client (oeprating system) so that no license problems come up
- For those students who have MACs, you have 2 choices:
a. Darren can put VM on the MAC and run windows which will cut their resources in half.
b. Use vlabs at vlabs.uml.edu(described above)
HERE IS THE SAME Instructions WITH ACTUAL CAPTURES FROM Computer
Here are the steps: when you log on—go to Program files and open up Ansys and you should see this:
Click on Workbench
THEN CLICK ON HFSS and you will see this
DOUBLE CLICK ON GEOETRY IN THE HFSS DESIGN BOX THAT APPEARs- THEN THAT SHOULD OPEN U THE ELECTRONICS DESKTOP WHICH IS YOUR MAIN HFSS WORK AREA AND PROGRAM! YOU WILL SEE THIS:
__________________________________________________________________________________
UPDATE:
If you are having a problem starting ANSYS Electronics Desktop and HFSS. The issue stems from a known bug in R17.0, which is the version they have available. Here is how you might fix this problem.
If you launch ANSYS Electronics Desktop, and see Simplorer in the title bar, complete these steps:
- Close down Simplorer.
- In Windows Explorer or My Computer, browse to the user directory, and the Documents folder. Under there, open the Ansoft folder. In there, DELTE the the ElectronicsDesktop2016.0 folder.
- Start ANSYS Electronics Desktop.

The two Introduction to Antennas courses offered focus on the design, fabrication and measurement of microwave antennas. Save time and money by completing these courses exclusively online without the expense of travel.
Get one-on-one personal instruction from an expert and design your own antenna. This is the only online course that offers theory and software design training using the industry-leading High-Frequency Structure Simulator (HFSS) simulation package. The course is ideal for electrical engineers who want to learn about antennas to gain new expertise while having no prior knowledge of the subject. Complete the course at your own pace. For example, four hours each weekend for eight weeks or complete it all in just one week.
The cost includes an electronic copy of the antenna textbook, unlimited access to HFSS during the course period, videos of lectures and notes, videos of HFSS training, videos of fabrication using a milling machine, and measurements using a network analyzer and an anechoic chamber. Upon completion of the lectures, you will be assigned a project to design and test your own antenna. Then, an experienced U of A engineer will fabricate your designed antenna, measure its performance in our lab, and send you the data and the antenna to write your final project report.
Upon successful completion of each course, participants will receive a certificate of completion. Successful course completion also unlocks access to faculty expertise and antenna fabrication facilities at reduced rates for proof-of-concept work.
NOTE - Currently, the fabrication lab is not available for the final project. The course can be successfully completed without this service.
Required: B.S. in Electrical Engineering or B.S. in Physics
If you feel you may have the background or experience to enroll in these courses but do not have the required degree, please contact tdryer@uark.edu to discuss options.
Available Online / On-Demand
40 Hours Per Course
Your course will be delivered via Blackboard, the University of Arkansas' online learning system. Within approximately 24 hours of your registration, you will receive a welcome email from a U of A Professional & Workforce Development staff member and a second email from Microsoft Invitations with information about how to set up and access your Blackboard account.
Please note that if you registered on a weekend or holiday, or if the University of Arkansas is closed due to inclement weather, there may be a delay in providing you with your login information.
