Altair SimSolid – Structural Analysis for Rapid Design Iterations

By performing structural analyses on fully featured CAD assemblies within minutes, SimSolid is the game-changing simulation technology for designers, engineers, and analysts. It eliminates geometry preparation and meshing: the two most time-consuming, expertise-extensive, and error-prone tasks performed in a conventional structural simulation.

Multiple design scenarios can be simulated quickly under real-life conditions. Early CAD models, in any common format, can be used. SimSolid tolerance of imprecise geometry means that, unlike CAD-embedded simulation tools, there is no need to simplify complex geometries before analyzing designs.

SimSolid supports all typical connections (bolt/nut, bonded, welds, rivets, sliding) and analysis of linear static, modal, thermal properties, along with more complex coupled, nonlinear, transient dynamic effects. Providing the simulation power to help quicker engineering decisions, it aids development of quality products faster to beat competitors to market.

SimSolid 2022 New Features

Seam weld fatigue analysis Seam weld fatigue analysis is now supported for stress-life methods. It is supported for both sequential and time-history based solutions. The analysis is based on the Volvo method, which uses linearized stresses through the thickness at the weld toes to calculate the fatigue damage. This method typically requires a bending SN curve and a membrane SN curve; input of both the SN curves for seam weld fatigue is supported. Three stress combination methods including critical plane, normal stress, and absolute max principle are available.

Frequency multi-loadcase With frequency multi-loadcases, you can run multiple frequency response analyses with a common linked modal analysis. This feature enables automation for both pre and post-processing of frequency response load cases. It allows export of results for all frequency response dynamics into a single file for easier post-processing of the results. Pressure, force and remote load boundary conditions are currently supported.

Save dynamic results to PUNCH file PUNCH file export is now supported for frequency response analysis. You can now export displacement, velocity and acceleration components and magnitude to a PUNCH file. This is supported for frequency dynamics and frequency multi-loadcases.

Local language support Chinese and Japanese local languages are now supported. The user interface and help documentation can both be accessed in local languages. To switch to a preferred language, on the menu bar, select Settings > Appearance.

Import loads on local spots Import of forces, moments and displacements from a CSV file is now supported at user-defined spots. This is supported for structural load cases. The spot is defined by its center, which can be input using the X, Y, and Z columns, and a diameter. Spots are automatically mapped to the closest face based on spatial locations and diameter.

CAD part instances SimSolid now recognizes part instances from the CAD file and retains their status in the project. All part instances have the same geometry representation, geometry adaptation, and response mesh associated with them. This helps significantly reduce solution time and project file size. To review part instances, from the Assembly workbench, select the Review parts function.
