    Fe-Safe

    Enhanced Features

    • Fe-Safe FKM assessment can handle local material orientations.
    • Fe-Safe is now able to read Abaqus ODB file when Microsoft HPC MPI Redistributable pack (Microsoft HPC Pack 2008) installed.
    • Fe-safe is now very accurate when it comes to exports (Summary in the log file) in a Fatemi-Socie Analysis.
    • Fe-Safe Prismatic Hull algorithm can handle residual stresses correctly.
    • Fe-Safe works when running FRF analysis on Linux cluster.

    Tosca

    Multiphysics Optimization

    1- Electromagnetics Optimization with CST Studio Suite:

    • Tosca Structure is now able to solve topology and shape optimizations for low frequency and high frequency electromagnetic problems using CST Studio Suite as the solver.
    • The Simulation and the Optimization can be set up directly in the CST Studio UI thus enabling a seamless workflow.

    2- Topology Optimization for Thermal load cases:

    • This version offers new thermal optimization capabilities in Tosca Structure.
    • During the optimization Convection and Conduction are scaled along with the topology design variable. The Convection is reapplied to newly created surfaces during the optimization.
    • Thermal Design Responses such as Temperature, Flux and Thermal Energy can be taken into account during the optimization.

    Improved Usability

    • Transition zone for bead optimization.
    • Generic design variables (Tosca Structure can include design variables that are not connected to nodes, elements, faces and other entities from mesh, geometry, or the finite-element model).
    • Default Change for Penetration Check to Include Shell Thickness and Offset.
    • Tosca Resume functionality.
    • Plastic Strain approximations as Design Responses in combination with SIMULIA Abaqus.

    Isight

    New Functionality

    • SIMULIA Execution Engine (SEE) administrator can now change the default job log level for jobs submitted from WebTop.
    • It is now possible to hide referenced sim-flows in Webtop search.
    • Webtop can now be linked to documentation server for online help.

    Enhanced Functionality

    • Exponential, Lognormal, and Weibull distributions for continuous random variables now allow to define a Threshold.
    • Include discrete variables in EDM graph.
