Functional Value
Modeling & Meshing - New check and fix tools for compatible line fasteners connections to improve dramatically the meshing success rate
Scenario - New Riks step generally used to predict unstable, geometrically nonlinear buckling or collapse of a structure
Scenario - Enlargement of scope around capabilities for including manufacturing effects, pre-loaded sub-assemblies, using previous simulations in downstream applications (e.g. springback analysis)
Scenario – Full support of coupled piezoelectric analysis
Durability - Explicit Dynamic results supported to increase the durability analysis scope
User Experience Value
Material - Added scroll bars and other User Interface modification improving dramatically the user experience
Scenario - On-The-Fly axis system creation now possible when defining scenario features, improving dramatically the user experience
Post Processing - New Save As New Template option for contour plots and sensors for a straightforward subsequent reuse
