Functional Value
Calibration of material models using a structural simulation increasing the range of possible calibratable material models
Support of new common connection behaviors (i.e. plasticity, damage, lock, stop) to increase the simulation fidelity
Scenario - Filters (e.g. Butterworth, Chebyshev, etc.) can now be applied to output requests to attenuate high-frequency solution noise and minimize results aliasing
Support of the Verity fatigue method to allow line welds with shell elements durability assessment
User Experience Value
New feedback in the Visualization Management dialog box for the user to make sure what he is currently viewing
Automated FEM enhancements (e.g. Support of multibody and visible body in midsurface and tetrahedron procedures) to improve the meshing automated processes
Allow results visualization during simulation execution to ensure the model is behaving as expected and get intermediate results before the end of the simulation
