ANSYS 2019R3 nCode DesignLife | 3.0 Gb
HBM, a wholly-owned subsidiary company of Spectris plc, a group specialized in precision instrumentation and electronic controls, announced the release of ANSYS 2019R3 nCode DesignLife, the leading brand for engineering data analysis solutions with special concentration in fatigue and durability.
ANSYS 2019R3 nCode DesignLife Release Notes: DesignLife - New Features
Spot Weld Analysis support for PAM-CRASH
Spot weld analysis is now supported from PAM-CRASH .erfh5 FE files with the spot welds being modelled using PLINK elements
DesignLife – Enhancements
Haibach Small-Cycle Correction in Safety Factor Analysis
The Haibach small-cycle correction method may now be used in a Safety Factor CAE Fatigue analysis. To select this option, the value of SmallCycleCorrection, a new property of the Safety Factor Analysis Engine, should be changed from None (its default value) to Haibach.
Composite Analysis Engine – Unit Circle Approach
The Unit Circle method has been added to the available failure criteria in the Composite Analysis engine. The Unit Circle criterion is an envelope function aiming to provide a conservative laminate failure estimation for UD materials considering all possible ply orientations. It is based on in-plane strains only, and best used in conjunction with degraded material stiffness matrices
NASTRAN sol601 support
NASTRAN NX sol601 results can now be used for Stress or Linear Strain analysis.
Vibration Frequencies from FE Reader
When the FE Reader glyph is used with FE files containing vibration results, the glyph now indicates the frequency corresponding to each output channel. This is done visually, by including the frequency in the channel's title, and also by adding a Frequency attribute to the channel's metadata.
Vibration results from LS-Dyna
Stress based vibration analysis is now supported from LS-Dyna d3eigv and d3ssd files (modal and complex stress transfer function).
FEReader Enhancements
The FEReader glyph now outputs a Property ID column in the Node Coordinates table from the FE Model Connectivity pad when processing models with duplicate node or element IDs. This helps to identify which part each node is contained within.Nodal coordinate columns are now only added to the output from the FE Data pad if the results are located at integration points.
Back Calculation Enhancements
The performance of a back calculation with a critical plane combination method has been improved significantly. Now, in most cases, only a single back calculation is performed per entity using the known critical plane angle and damage value from a pre-existing forward calculation. The output also shows only the results for the angle with the greatest damage value.
Grey Iron Calculation speed
The performance of the grey iron EN calculation has been improved significantly.
Multi-Column Outputs from Virtual Sensor and Strain Gauge
The Virtual Sensor and Strain Gauge analysis engines now allow Multi-Column Outputs to be attached. These make the results of the combination stage of the analysis available, in a similar way to the existing Time Series Outputs, but in multi-column format.
Invert the Polarity of a Virtual Sensor
When a virtual sensor of type TensorSurfaceNormal or SurfaceNormal is positioned, its Z-axis is perpendicular to the surface but points in the direction of the element normal vector. It can now be pointed in the opposite direction if this is desired, e.g., if the actual physical sensor has its Z-axis in the opposite direction.
Material Map Group Selection: Translate in Separate Process
nCode 2019 introduced the option MaterialMap for the FE Import Analysis Group's SelectionGroupType property, allowing the entity groups used in the analysis to be defined by the materials loaded from a Bill of Materials. This feature was previously incompatible with the FE Results Import option TranslateInSeparateProcess, but now both options may be used together
GlyphWorks - Enhancements
Mouse wheel support added to Remote nCode
The mouse wheel can now be used in Remote nCode (i.e. when nCode is run in a web browser). This allows actions such as scrolling the workspace or changing the zoom level of FE model displays to be controlled using the wheel.
MultiColumn Calculator glyph can use equations from metadata
The MultiColumn Calculator glyph can now use an equation from metadata, such as the #Equation# metadata value generated by the Curve Fitting glyph.
More glyphs added to free viewer mode
If nCode Desktop is run in ‘free viewer’ mode, only a limited number of glyphs can be used. Five new glyphs have been made available – Burst Input, Complex Frequency Input, Campbell Plot, Waterfall Display and XYZ Display.
XY Display can now show cursor values for all channels
The XY Display can now optionally show cursor values for all available channels rather than just those which are plotted in the display window. The same values can also be output through a data pipe when using the XY Display glyph.
Histogram Display now has a metadata limits option
The Histogram Display can now optionally use metadata values for the limits of the x, y and z axis. The standard ‘CustomLimits’ metadata set can be used, or the user can select specific values using the ‘Limits’ property page.
Histogram Display now has custom colour ranges
The Histogram Display can now optionally use custom colour ranges. These can be specified simply by setting the minimum and maximum levels along with the number of evenly spaced bands to use between these limits. Alternatively, the level for each band can be specified manually, allowing for uneven spacing.
Data Values Display now has a reverse y-axis option
The Data Values Display can now optionally reverse the y-axis when displaying histogram data. The glyph has a new property called ReverseYAxis that allows you to do this if required.
Vector BLF files support multiplexed CAN channels
The Vector BLF file format now supports multiplexed CAN channels
Supported ASAM ODS version updated
ASAM ODS support has been updated to V6.0. This particularly applies to reading and writing ATF/ATFX files.
HBM Catman File Formatting
A new preference has been added to the HBM Catman file format for CAN channel formatting. This new preference will allow CAN channel messages to be imported as a single multi-column channel as opposed to splitting the messages out into individual bytes.
B&K BKC file format has a new preference for invalid data values
A new preference has been added to the B&K BKC file format which allows the user to specify a value to use when invalid data values are found while reading a file.
IMPORTANT! Please review the Resolved Issues and Known Issues documents (ANSYS_resolved_issues_2019R3.pdf /ANSYS_known_issues_2019R3.pdf), which are located in the installation kit in the Info folder and installed into the \docs directory.
ANSYS nCode DesignLife. works with ANSYS Mechanical to reliably evaluate fatigue life. Using the results of finite element analysis (FEA) from ANSYS Mechanical, it calculates stresses and strains, then cumulates damage from repetitive loading to determine a product’s predicted life. You can quickly evaluate the effects of different materials and alternative geometries for new designs, and then optimize them for the product’s expected usage — long before the first prototype is built.
Once created, the fatigue process can be captured and reused. Engineers without fatigue expertise can evaluate modified product designs to determine the updated product life. Start-to-end automation avoids the majority of errors and ensures consistency, especially in large organizations in which multiple engineers might be analyzing the results.
ANSYS nCode DesignLife, the industry-leading tool for durability analysis, gives you a comprehensive diagnostic fatigue process to predict your product’s operational lifetime. It is fully integrated into ANSYS Workbench for ease of use and smooth workflow. You can create complex loading “duty cycles” based on measurements that represent real-life forces on products, or use anticipated loading histories.
ANSYS 2019R3 nCode DesignLife provides advanced fatigue analysis integrated within the ANSYS 2019R3 Workbench environment. Results and materials data from simulations within Workbench can be directly accessed by DesignLife. This provides an unparalleled combination of ease of use and powerful fatigue analysis for ANSYS users.
This video shows detailed steps in conducting a fatigue analysis from vibration loading and the integration of nCode DesignLife with the ANSYS Workbench interface.
