Requires the Basic StressCheck Module 

The Linear Elasticity Analysis module is the initial building block of the seamless hierarchic modeling framework that constitutes the foundation of StressCheck. Sequential linear elastic solutions are obtained automatically by increasing the polynomial level of the elements, and subsequent advanced analyses use linear solutions as a basis

• Provides product development professionals with the most widely used and needed analysis capabilities for structural analysis
• Identify problem areas and test ideas virtually before building expensive prototypes and experimental fixtures
• Powerful and extensible – this is the prerequisite module to run advanced analysis types (e.g. nonlinear, margin check, cold-working, modal/buckling)
• Supports planar (plane stress, plane strain), extruded, axisymmetric, and 3D elasticity analysis

Core Advantages:

• Solutions can be obtained by p-extension and adaptive-p methods with convergence-based criteria
  • Allows for easy verification of results without mesh refinement
  • It is simple and easy to extend a linear elastic solution to higher p-levels
• Includes support for multi-body contact analysis, with no inherent limit on assembly size
• Combined with the 64-bit solver, linear elasticity analysis solutions on the order of 50 million DOF or more can be computed
