Superelements, an add-on to NX Nastran – Basic, plays a key role when solving very large and complex finite element models by decomposing larger structures into equivalent sets of smaller substructures called superelements.
#FEMAP VERSIONS SOFTWARE#
NX Nastran® software solves large systems of equations efficiently using sparse matrix algorithms however, NX Nastran – Superelements offers still greater efficiency. Superelements : Despite the ever-increasing power of computers, finite element models are continuing to get larger, which means that finite element analysis (FEA) solutions can require hours of compute time. With the Rotor Dynamics functionality now integrated into NX Nastran, users can now more easily simulate rotating system loads, perform synchronous and asynchronous analysis to generate Campbell Diagram data, predict whirl frequencies and critical speeds and detect instability in rotating components. NX Nastran® Rotor Dynamics software provides the capability to predict the dynamic behavior of rotating systems. Rotor Dynamics : Rotating systems are subject to gyroscopic forces such as Coriolis and centrifugal forces that are not present in stationary systems. NX Nastran–Optimization software relieves the burden involved in improving product designs by automating the iterative process of comparing your design’s performance against its performance specifications.
#FEMAP VERSIONS MANUAL#
Because your designs may have hundreds of variable parameters, with complex inter-relationships, finding an optimal design through manual iterations is hit-or-miss at best. Using optimization techniques, an engineer can improve a proposed design, resulting in the best possible product for minimum cost. Optimization : Designing and producing an innovative product that meets its performance criteria is a goal of every manufacturer.
