Version 5.0

Released: june 2021

Functional Additions and Improvements

Plasticity according to the Drucker-Prager criterion with tabular (polylinear isotropic) symmetric hardening with small strains for static and dynamic analyzes
Added additive manufacturing simulation module (alpha version)
Added calculation with bolt pretension (displacements and force)
Added calculation of laminate shells taking into account thermal conductivity in multilayer isotropic and orthotropic (alpha version) shells
Added orthotropic thermoelasticity
Improved calculation algorithm with common contact without friction (FEM and SEM)
Improved iterative solver algorithms

The layer settings widget for shells has been improved, the input of the coordinate system for the block with shells has been added, the layer settings panel has been updated
New work logic when specifying beam section ID
Improvements in rendering the 3D section view of beams and shells
Added rendering of point masses
Added new convectors (jt, cdb)
Added rendering of shells in the preprocessor
Added the ability to set a specific set of beam properties for the selected block via the GUI
Added the ability to import parasolid and solidworks formats in Linux versions

Added new filter for disabling Multithreshold blocks (alpha version)
Extending the functionality of the filter "Coordinate systems"
Improvements to the filter "Safety Factor"
Added rotation of the stress-strain state of the layer in the element coordinate system
Added output of stress-strain state by layers for laminates
Added filter "Frequency analysis", which allows you to view the stress-strain state on the finite element model for the selected frequency of the driving force based on the results of harmonic analysis
Added the ability to view stresses at the extreme points of the beam section
Added damping task in the Linear spectral analysis filter
Implemented the output of files in the viewer in the order they are listed in the pvd file
Added Statistics filter
