ABAQUS for CATIA V5 Extends Leadership in Integrated Nonlinear Simulation for CATIA Users.PROVIDENCE, R.I. -- New Version Broadens Support for Sophisticated ABAQUS Capabilities in Materials and Assembly Connections ABAQUS, Inc ABAQUS, Inc. is an engineering simulation software (CAE) vendor. Formerly known as Hibbitt, Karlsson & Sorensen, Inc., (HKS), the company was founded in 1978 by Dr. David Hibbitt, Dr. Bengt Karlsson and Dr. ., a leading provider of advanced finite element analysis Finite element analysis (FEA) is a computer simulation technique used in engineering analysis. It uses a numerical technique called the finite element method (FEM). There are many finite element software packages, both free and proprietary. (FEA (Finite Element Analysis) A mathematical technique for analyzing stress, which breaks down a physical structure into substructures called "finite elements." The finite elements and their interrelationships are converted into equation form and solved mathematically. ) software, technology and services, announced today the release of ABAQUS for CATIA A family of 2D and 3D CAD programs from IBM. CATIA was one of the first CAD programs to provide 3D solid modeling. The program was developed by Dassault Systems, a French aerospace company. V5, Version 2.1. The software offers users of CATIA V5 new simulation capabilities including added functionality for advanced materials Advanced Materials is a leading peer-reviewed materials science journal published every two weeks. Advanced Materials includes Communications, Reviews, and Feature Articles from the cutting edge of materials science, including topics in chemistry, physics, and structural assembly techniques in ABAQUS. Completely integrated with the CATIA V5 Product Lifecycle Product lifecycle or product life cycle is the course of a product's sales and profits over time. The five stages of each product lifecycle are product development, introduction, growth, maturity and decline. Management (PLM (Product Life cycle Management) A comprehensive information system that coordinates all aspects of a product from initial concept to its eventual retirement. Sometimes called the "digital backbone" of a product, it includes the requirements phase, analysis and design ) solution from Dassault Systemes Dassault Systemes (Dassault Systèmes S.A.) (Pronounced - Dasoh) (NASDAQ: DASTY; Euronext: 13065) is a leading company specializing in 3D and PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) software. (Nasdaq: DASTY, Euronext Paris: #13065, DSY DSY Drum Storage Yard .PA), the new ABAQUS software supports important engineering workflows in ground vehicle and aerospace applications, as well as proximal workflows in a wide range of industries. Accurate structural modeling of assemblies remains a daunting daunt tr.v. daunt·ed, daunt·ing, daunts To abate the courage of; discourage. See Synonyms at dismay. [Middle English daunten, from Old French danter, from Latin challenge in product design. Sophisticated technology is required to model spot welds and other joining techniques, to ensure high-fidelity prediction of product performance, and to realistically estimate product life. To address these challenges, Version 2.1 of ABAQUS for CATIA V5 takes advantage of the latest advances in ABAQUS technology. This release of ABAQUS for CATIA V5 continues to deepen the provision for nonlinear analysis by supporting more material models, such as enhanced metal plasticity models, hyperelasticity, and user-defined materials. "The continued advance of ABAQUS for CATIA V5 demonstrates a commitment between ABAQUS and Dassault Systemes to produce an effective solution to a challenging part of the design process," said Severin Lanfranchi, Director of Research and Development, CATIA Simulation, Dassault Systemes. "With each release, ABAQUS for CATIA V5 continues to deliver significant new capabilities for advanced FEA within the CATIA V5 user environment," said Ken Short, vice president of marketing for ABAQUS. "From powertrain and chassis durability to composite aircraft stringer panel analysis, ABAQUS for CATIA V5 offers a compelling PLM-integrated solution for sophisticated, real-world simulation."
