These workflow cycles allow effects such as heating, thermal expansion and Lorentz forces to be fed back into the EM field solvers, making it easier to analyze applications such as filters and cavities which can be very sensitive to deformation. The flexible configuration of the workflow sequence allows the user to easily define both simple simulation series and more complex nested workflows including feedback.
