Safe Technology Ltd today announces the latest release of its advanced suite of fatigue analysis software for FE models, fe-safe. fe-safe 6.4 includes a new and unique approach to the fatigue of woven fibre composite materials and usability enhancements such as support for Abaqus ODB Parts and Instances. fe-safe 6.4 also demonstrates continued increases in speed of analyses with the introduction of native 64-bit Windows code. Key New Features: - 64bit Windows fe-safe 6.4 is the first 64-bit release for Microsoft Windows platforms. The 64-bit application removes all process memory limits and enables fe-safe to offer consistently faster analysis speeds across all types of analyses. - Support for Abaqus Parts & Instances Support for ODB Parts & Instances enables Abaqus users to analyse models with multiple Parts & Instances without the need to flatten and rerun the model. It also enables the retention of assembly details for post-processing. This offers huge solution time benefits and streamlines the FEA Fatigue analysis process. - Support for woven fibre material in fe-safe/Composites This unique capability extends the capabilities of fe-safe/Composites - for the fatigue of composite materials - from unidirectional laminae, to include plain woven architectures. It was developed and tested in collaboration with DSO National Laboratories, Singapore; Royal National Lifeboat Institute, UK; and Daimler AG, Germany, in a consortium led by Safe Technology and Firehole Composites (recently acquired by Autodesk, Inc).
