msc.software annuncia la release di md nastran 2010complete nonlinear analysis, more physical analysis, multi-model optimization and revolutionary performancesanta ana, ca -- (marketwire – 26 July 2010) - msc.software, the leader in the supply of multidisciplinary solutions that accelerate product innovation, today announced the release of md nastran 2010. the product can be downloaded from msc.software website.
using this release, engineers will be able to rely on md nastran to solve problems up to now not addressable – including advanced non-linear analysis, thermo-mechanical bidirectional coupling, a broader range of simulations of physical phenomena including cfd codes and multi-model optimization, with performance improvements of the truly revolutionary solver.
md nastran allows analysts to go beyond the most traditional simulation related to a single discipline, allowing to simulate more physical behaviors with a single solutor in a realistic way. “We are happy to be able to use a single model in md nastran 2010 for our linear and non-linear car body analyses within our next vehicle development program,” helene detable, specialist in mechanics at psa peugeot citroen.
complete and advanced linear and non-linear analysis with a single fe solutorThis release of md nastran provides a series of non-linear features that allow engineers to use a single fe solutor for linear and non-linear advanced simulations. among the benefits for users we remember:
• Automatic analysis of bolts – simpler and more accurate modelling of assembled through better precarious control and more accurate results in continuous contact
• contact improvements – more accurate prediction of contact stresses and greater stress continuity through the use of a segment-segment algorithm, better thermal analysis results with thermal contact for actual contact or closeness between mesh disomogenee.
• Thermal-mechanical analysis – greater accuracy through thermal-mechanical coupling, which helps users solve new types of problems including heat generation due to mechanical loss of work, including heating brake pads, contact between tyres and road and manufacturing operations.
• non-linear change of the integration step – which reduces integration time and simplifies the setup phase.
a wider range of simulations of physical problems to represent different phenomena more realisticallyThis release of md nastran expands the range of physical phenomena that can be modeled, providing a more accurate representation of the behaviors of its prototype and thus allowing to accelerate product innovation. among the improvements and new features of this release we remember:
• advanced functionality for thermal simulation with the rc-network solutor – more accurate results for thermal simulations thanks to the industrial leading capabilities of msc sinda embedded in md nastran
• co-simulation with cfd – more accurate results for structural and fluid analysis through the somulation of md nastran with cfd codes developed by third parties
• improvements related to explicit and fsi applications – dmp (distributed memory parallel) solutions for explicit fsi applications (fluid-structure interaction) make available the fastest explicit solutor on the market
• nvh and dynamic analysis improvements – improved integration with data from physical testing is now available, which allows you to include components described through frf derived from physical testing in frf (frequency response function) and fba (frf-based assembly) features.
Multi model optimization, which allows you to combine different models in a single optimization analysismd nastran 2010 provides the new multimodel optimization feature that allows users to optimize their prototypes when design conditions are imposed by two or more models of md nastran. this allows engineers to optimize their products considering all aspects in a single optimization analysis instead of combining different analyses, which increases the value of md nastran as a multidisciplinary solutor.performance and robustnessa series of new calculation tools and new procedures implemented for linear and nonlinear contact analysis lead to better performance and therefore to higher user productivity.
• Pardious and mumps solutors for parallel and multithread processors implemented for linux machines and windows allow users to take full advantage of their multi-core systems at no additional cost.
• dmp-type solvers (distributed parallel memory) are now available in the non-linear solutions of md nastran, which allows users to solve larger models in a lesser time.
• the umfpack solutor has been implemented to extract complex autovalues according to the lanczos procedure, which leads to a higher level of efficiency. For example, for a model of about 190,000 dofs, a speed increase of 50% was achieved in relation to the extraction of 100 complex autovalues.
• the support of the dmp method has been extended to include multi-material fsi type issues which leads to substantial performance improvements for that class of problems. For example, an explosion model of a land mine characterized by about 1 million elements showed a speed increase of 250% on a 4-cpu linux8664 system and an increase of speed up to 900% on a 32-core system.
“this new release of md nastran represents a remarkable step forward in the field of the most advanced simulation features for nonlinear analysis and analysis coupled with physical phenomena,” stated sanjay choudhry, vice president for product management and release at msc.software. “together with substantial improvements in scalability and performance of the parallel solutor, md nastran 2010 today offers a unified environment for linear and nonlinear analysis, both for simple components and for larger and complex systems. This will lead to higher accuracy and increased productivity for customers who perform both these analyses on a daily basis. support in simxpert 2010 adds a new dimension to the simplicity of use of such features. the continuous insertion of new features related to the most traditional nvh applications and optimization will also make available to our aerospace and automotive customers a greater value. ”for more information on the new features of md nastran 2010, participate in the on-demand webinar available at the link:http://www.mscsoftware.com/events/webcasts/mdnastran/whatsnew2010/
