  • New option to select the toolbar icons between 16×16 (default), 20×20 and 24×24 pixels size.
  • Movable Min/Max labels for Results plotting and extractions.
  • A Dependencies button on the Parameter pane which lists all dependencies on the selected parameter.
  • Column sorting and filtering for Parameters pane table including “Go To” to search for parameters.
  • Predictive text on input fields has been implemented for parameter and formula names.
  • Enhanced Index controls for filtering and sorting Geometry and Mesh object lists. including “Go To ID…” to access a specific ID.
  • Improved visualization of Selected status on dropdown lists containing assignment/set records.
  • Overhauled the Display Objects pane to support selective number ranges and additional object types.
  • Re-designed color definitions pane.
  • A list of object IDs belonging to a set “Contents:” and a list of objects that reference the set “Used By:” are now displayed when selecting a record on the Sets page.
  • Improved consistency of DeLast/Undo functionality

Testimonials

  • When performing parametric structural analysis, ESRD’s p-element StressCheck FEA software is always my preferred choice due to the excellent solution quality, parametric framework, and superior computational efficiency. In fact, I recently used StressCheck to generate stress intensity factors along a parametrically defined elliptical crack-tip across 3,000 unique geometric configurations. Considering multi-body contact was present and all simulations were performed using a laptop, this was a task well suited for StressCheck.

Testimonials

“The addition of incremental theory of plasticity in StressCheck has greatly improved our ability to accurately predict the fatigue life of joints with interference fit fasteners and cold worked holes. This ability is especially important, not only in support of maintaining aging aircraft but also in analyzing some of the new cold working techniques that have been introduced in recent years.
Prior to this implementation, analysts often relied on closed-form approximations or simple factors that were often overly conservative and sometimes even unconservative when used in life prediction. Now, not only can we more accurately predict residual stresses in these complex structural joints, but we can also do so in a timely manner given the modeling and analysis efficiency that exists with a p-version FEA code such as StressCheck.”
