--------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------

Release Date:
05.10.2021


Sim4Life light V6.2.2 is a student edition of Sim4Life V6.2.2, 
a specially tailored solution for students to gain insight into 
the world of computational modeling and simulation. The software is 
time-limited but free of charge and can be used to simulate various 
applications applying different physics solvers.  

This document summarizes the features and specifications of this 
release.

3. List of Main Bugs Fixed Since V6.2.1 Release
--------------------------------------------------------------------

- Case 124573: Fix the issue creating wrong streamline viewer results 
close to the source
- Case 127210: Fix the units issue in the XY viewer of the Radiation 
Evaluator
- Case 144509: Fix the issue with the changing order of boolean 
operations after re-opening a project
- Case 147766: Fix in Mask Filter GUI to change its size dynamically
- Case 149200: Fix an issue that prevented some thermal simulations 
from starting
- Case 149241: Fix the issue with initialization settings not being 
saved in some thermal simulation cases
- Case 152637:  Fix an issue in the Electric Energy evaluator, which 
computed stored electric energy incorrectly on multi-threaded CPUs
- Case 156616: Fix in the definition and implementation of Magnetic 
and Electric Energy evaluators so that they consistently compute 
time-averaged stored energy for both DC and AC fields
