Functional Value
Efficiently create models of formed components using CATIA quick formability feature as initialization for shell sections thickness definition
Create high fidelity FE models including triangle/tet meshes with improved meshing and remeshing capabilities by adding the mesh type as a user parameter
Easily produce high quality surface and volume mesh connections with the new functionality to merge nodes between a 2D and 3D mesh and to make the condensation persistent
Extend the applicability of line fastener constructs by adding new wedge element options for 'Support boundary', 'Line', and 'Specify Coordinates' placements
Build large assemblies of symmetric components efficiently with the ability to mirror a half symmetry FEM including connections
Enhance dynamic explicit procedure accuracy involving contact with the support of precise contact through geometry based corrections
