STEP Analysis Modules

A variety of plug-in analysis modules are available for STEP. The analysis performed by these modules varies from analysing different material types to providing models based on fundamental physical properties of an active material

The Basic STEP Package includes four analysis modules providing common emperical phenomenological models of four fundamental active material types. The following table summarises the analysis modules available with STEP. Work is on-going to develop new modules. TASI Technical Software Inc. is also closely following industry trends toward standard models of characterisation.
