Since all parts are imported separately, parallel part-bypart meshing can be used to speed-up the meshing
process

As of P3, when multiple items are selected, you can now rename these items all at once in the same way. Selecting
this option will launch the batch rename dialog.
Inside, you can enter the new name that your selected items will share.
You can also choose whether the items will have numbers appended sequentially to them.

Conservative Mapping
36
Motivation
When importing forces
from an external source,
it is important to
accurately capture
resulting forces, which is
generally not the case if
non-conservative
algorithms are used.

Complex shapes, degradation
of material properties due to
manufacturing are adding
complexity to the modeling of
composites parts yet need to
be captured to improve the
accuracy of simulation
models.

Material Failure
50
Motivation
Engineers need to
investigate the
consequences of cracks
appearing in a product
from the
manufacturing process
or from fatigue to avoid
early failure of the
product possibly in an
easy way.

The results are almost

Tet mesh allows the user
to easily define complex
crack shapes
Higher tet mesh fidelity
increases accuracy of
results

Rotating Machines
76
Motivation
Mistuning, off-balance of
disks and/or shafts have
a significant impact on
dynamic behaviors of
rotor machinery.
In order to meet
standard and
specifications, designers
have to take these
effects into account.
