Nullspace CTO Dr. Daniel Faircloth joins Katerina Galitskaya to discuss the engineering decisions behind Nullspace—and why rethinking electromagnetic simulation from the ground up was necessary.
"We were building the tool we wished we had. Legacy EM tools were designed before GPUs existed, before Python became the language of engineering, before accurate large-scale solution techniques matured."
In this conversation:
The engineering gap that legacy tools couldn't fill: large phased arrays, wideband RCS, on-platform antenna coupling where accuracy matters
What "modern Method of Moments" actually means: proprietary matrix compression, native GPU acceleration, high-order formulations designed for today's hardware
Why Nullspace is Python-native from the ground up—not a GUI with scripting bolted on
How AI will amplify engineers rather than replace them
