New Features

Animation
Animation modes (linear, modal, transient) are now enabled.
You must create a deformation plot and then use all the standard controls in the Animation toolbar.
Limitations:
  • Vector and Tensor plots are not yet supported.
  • Animation for HyperMesh is supported at window level only and not yet at page level.
RSS Derived Load Case
Root Square Sum (RSS) load case is available through the Derived Load Case workflow (together with Linear Superposition and Envelope).
Extreme Principal Invariant
Extreme Principal value as invariant has now been exposed. Value = Extreme(P1,P2,P3).
Update Plot Controls Directly in the Legend
You can now change plot control settings like Datacomponents, layers, and so on directly in the Legend by hovering over the exposed lines and selecting the relevant item.

Enhancements

Principal Invariants in Tensor Plot
Tensor Plot now has the possibility to display invariants in the modeling window.
Free Body Groups and Trace Plot
Trace Plot workflow has been migrated to the plot control paradigm.
Free Body Groups are now supported for handling the relevant workflow.

Resolved Issues

  • Nodes can now properly be selected in ISO display from Contour Plot.
  • Contour plot for PSOLID with MCID has been corrected.
  • Refactor messaging when results are not available.
  • Resolved issue with reversed subcase order.
