fe-safe & Tosca 2022

fe-safe:

SIMULIA durability solutions offer world-leading technology for fatigue analysis from FEA, its capabilities have been developed to meet the most demanding industrial applications to calculate:

• Where fatigue cracks will occur;
• When fatigue cracks will initiate;
• The factors of safety on working stresses;

Product Highlights:

• State of the art multiaxial fatigue algorithms
• Fatigue of welded joints
• Vibration fatigue
• Critical distance methods for crack growth prediction
• Property mapping for casting or forging simulations

This Tech Talk will present and highlight recent developments and enhancements in durability technology:

• 3DEXPERIENCE Durability capabilities
• Weld fatigue
• Vibration fatigue
• Nitinol fatigue 
• General enhancements

Tosca:

Tosca Structure is a structural optimization solution that can seamlessly fit into most industrial workflows.

Highlights of Tosca 2022

• Unified material interpolation in topology optimization (MIMP) enhances topology optimization result interpretation and extends the type of problems that Tosca can solve
• Rib design constraints
• More robust maximum member size constraint to improve manufacturability
• Manufacturing constraints for bead optimization
• User design responses based on SIMULIA Abaqus user subroutines
• Advanced stress metrics and plasticity approximation factors
• Resume a job that has run a maximum number of iterations and yet not converged
