What's New?

New Functionalities

Inserting Sets of Analysis Connections: You can insert several sets of analysis connections.

Before You Begin: Overcome the 2Gb storage size limitation for CATAnalysis documents.

Inserting Combined Cases: You can now select multi-load static solutions, assembled solutions and imported solutions.

Importing Composite Property: You can now take into account producibility defined in the Composite Design workbench.

Mapping File Syntax: The syntax of the XML mapping file has been enhanced (new attributes; possibility to reference publications, geometrical sets and multi-output features...).
Exporting XML Mapping File: The properties already applied are now taken into account in the exported XML mapping file and you can select groups under mesh parts as support of the mapping property.

About Connection Properties: You can release degrees of freedom on beam inside a user-defined connection properties except for the Beam-Spring-Beam combination.

ELFINI Solver Log: A warning message is displayed when you launch a computation if equilibrium in the system is not reached.
Cut Plane Analysis: The last cut plane properties are stored in the settings and you can restore the default position and orientation of the cut plane.
Available Images: You can generate several images of failure under analysis solutions with different criteria: Hoffman, Maximum failure, Tresca, Tsai-Hill, Tsai-Wu and Von Mises criterion.; A new physical type is available: Failure criterion.
New images are available for the Stress physical type.
Failure Criteria: Formulas of the failure criterion images are described.
Exporting Data: You can export value locations of a user-defined axis system.

General: Automatic naming of mesh parts, connection properties, connection mesh parts and user materials.
