BETA.CAE.Systems.v22.1.1

BETA CAE Systems announces the release of the 22.1.1 of its software suite. This release encourages you to seamlessly integrate with v22.1.x series, taking advantage of increased functionality capabilities, as well as of fixes to recently detected issues.


Known issues resolved in ANSA

Modular Run Management
- The performance of Check build actions has been improved up to 70%, combatting unexpected delays tracked in previous versions.
- A duplicate transformation keyword would be written in the Simulation Run main file, in addition to the one written in the adapted Subsystem or Library Item, if the respective item was loaded upon defining the transformation.
Data Management
- When trying to delete a Subsystem Group from DM, the contained Subsystems would also be erroneously deleted.
- Downloading an FE Representation for a Part through DM Browser would not update the "DM Update Status".
Connections & Assembly
- When executing the Connectivity > Auto function on Adhesive Faces, parts outside the search domain might wrongly be detected.
Shell Mesh
- Performance increase up to 80% in the Grids Align function, when aligning a high number of grids onto geometrical surfaces.
- Mesh Generation: The sub-options for Batch [Visible, Select, Re-Generate] would be inappropriately missing.
Volume Mesh
- Running the Map algorithm, unexpected termination would occur in cases with several outer caps involved.
Batch Meshing
- Running the CFD meshing algorithm, occasionally the algorithm would fail, resulting in a mesh result of poor quality with large growth rate and element size differences. Also, proximity and size fields would not be taken into account.
LS-DYNA
- When working with Analysis Tools and particularly with Joint Assistant, unexpected termination would occur when an entity list was activated from the Database Browser.
OPTISTRUCT
- Converting BMFACEs to elements would occasionally lead to abnormal termination.

Known issues resolved in EPILYSIS

Output
- Unexpected termination would occur in SOL110 with EKE output request.
SOL200
- Unexpected error would also occur in case of ANALYSIS=DFREQ/MFREQ with adjoint response and structural damping.

Known issues resolved in META

Read Results
- Results from column ASCII files would not be read correctly in v22.1.0.
- Some OptiStruct .op2 files with Eigenmode results would be erroneously read and the States list would contain unnecessary modes. In addition, Shape optimization results from .op2 files for mode optimization would not be read correctly.
- Adams result files might not be read correctly.
- Unexpected termination could occur while reading TecDescription ASCII vector results.
Managing Curve Data
- META would terminate unexpectedly when Descriptionting results over distance of nodes of adaptive mesh and LS-DYNA Curves would not be properly Descriptionted, when the same ID was available for different entity types of bndout.
- Performance has been boosted up to 70%, while loading big Unv58 files on Windows OS.
Project Files & METADB
- Unexpected termination would occur when reading geometry from a solver input file and results from a METADB file, when the two files contained different number of extra nodes.
Automation
- Abnormal termination could occur when loading a model and a result with a long result name via the respective script function call.

Known issues resolved in KOMVOS

Actions
- Thanks to the addition of right-mouse button Actions on Library Files via dm_views.xml, the user now can directly "Open in ANSA", ANSA databases residing with
