Sometimes called the "digital backbone" of a product, it includes the requirements phase, analysis and design ) solutions, today announced that its SIMULIA brand for realistic simulation, has released 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.  Version 2.5, the technology-leading software for 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. ) in the CATIA environment.

"Abaqus for CATIA allows our design engineers to immediately evaluate how new concepts and design changes affect product performance," states Michael Thienel, MANN+HUMMEL hummel

 Turbo Systems Ltd. "With Abaqus for CATIA we can work seamlessly with the same geometry model throughout our virtual development process. This integrated simulation workflow provides significant efficiency gains for our company."

The latest release, available on the latest 64-bit computing architecture as well as 32-bit systems, provides tighter integration with CATIA through support of CATIA Knowledgeware, publications, and sensors, as well as ease-of-use enhancements such as automatic contact detection.

"Abaqus for CATIA Version 2.5 addresses our customers' requirements for tighter integration with CATIA and improved usability of advanced Abaqus features, such as contact and nonlinear analysis workflows," states Steve Crowley, director of SIMULIA product management for Dassault Syst[c]mes. "This release is a key component of our strategy to deliver solutions that enable design engineers and expert analysts to collaborate efficiently throughout the product lifecycle by using approved methods, common FEA models, and synchronized data."

The new product leverages CATIA's Knowledgeware, which allows users to capture design knowledge and reuse it as best practices to ensure compliance with established standards. The new automatic contact detection feature simplifies the modeling process and reduces potential errors by providing a wizard-based interface that guides users through setup options and automatically detects all likely contact pairs.
