COSMOSDesignStar lets users explode individual parts of an assembly. The explode options include Move, Rotate, Enlarge, Shrink, and Collapse. The new release also features a Task Scheduler to make it easier to run up to 10 FEA studies in batch mode. |
The 3D nonlinear contact analysis eliminates shortcomings caused when static studies are used to solve contact problems. For example, the software simulates the hyperelastic behavior of O-rings as they compress on contact with bearing surfaces. A thermostat mechanism can control heat, power, and heat-flux assignments for transient thermal analyses. Users can apply different initial temperatures to different components in an assembly when performing transient-thermal analyses. The software supports CadMan, SpaceBall, SpaceMouse, and SpaceTraveler from 3Dconnexion.
