Functional Value
Modeling and Meshing - Support lap joint for the Support boundary method of line fastener reducing dramatically the time effort and effort to create the mesh in such case
Modeling and Meshing - Ability to run simulations on polyhedral geometries (orphan meshes) increasing the range of possible simulation workflows
Meshing - New persistent locking options for elements and domains facilitating any remeshing action
Scenario - New default for Edge-To-Edge contact for Explicit dynamic analysis, increasing simulation robustness and quality
User Experience Value
Improved model-build user experience with a unified app for meshing and structural model creation, improving efficiency
Scenario - Openness increase through new CAA APIs to improve scripting capabilities
Modeling and Meshing - Generative modeling tool for sub-modeling simulation to speed-up studies of local parts of models
