MSC Nastran 2012 Delivers Significantly Expanded Simulation of Real World Behaviors
SANTA ANA, CA--(Marketwire - November 3rd, 2011) - MSC Software Corporation, the leader in multidiscipline simulation solutions that accelerate product innovation, today announced its new release of MSC Nastran 2012. This powerful release consolidates MSC Nastran and MD Nastran into a single solution for all MD and MSC Nastran customers. This simplifies the product offering and provides customers a single MSC Nastran platform for the future.
MSC Nastran customers will see significant enhancements in the 2012 release:
NONLINEAR SIMULATION
Simulate Implicit Nonlinear
Through an optional module, users can simulate nonlinear problems including geometric nonlinearity, material nonlinearity, and contact nonlinearity. Nonlinear convergence robustness has been enhanced with a new adaptive stepping procedure.
Perform Explicit Simulations
MSC Nastran 2012 also makes available a module that enables engineers to solve explicit nonlinear problems. These capabilities are primarily focused in the areas of performance for impact, fluid-structure interaction (FSI) applications, multi-physics, enhanced material models and robustness. Simulation times are greatly reduced for FSI analyses like drop testing of fluid filled plastic bottles, fuel tank sloshing, airbags, and occupant safety.
CAPABILITY IMPROVEMENTS
Easier 3D Linear Contact
Users can now access linear contact modeling which supports 3D touching contact modeling in linear statics and glued contact for linear statics, normal modes, and dynamics (transient, frequency, and buckling). This provides significant modeling efficiencies when working with assemblies.
Improved Results for Composites
Lamina stresses, lamina strains, failure indices, and strength ratios have been enabled for frequency response, transient response, and random vibration simulations. This is important for composite structures since failure occurs at the ply level.
Optimize your Designs
Control surface positions can now be selected as a designed quantity in MSC Nastran 2012 as a feature of MSC Nastran Optimization. In terms of applications, the use of control surfaces to redistribute the loading on an aircraft so as to lessen a critical loading is a practice that has been deployed on a number of air vehicles.
Simplify Aeroelasticity Calculations
The MSC Nastran 2012 release simplifies aeroelastic modeling. MSC Nastran 2012 will automatically determine the aerodynamic and structural grids that are within your defined depth and add them to the relevant splines, which is a significant benefit when used in conjunction with CFD.
Enhanced Acoustic Analysis
Several enhancements are made to MSC Nastran's acoustic analysis capabilities to help users achieve higher efficiency. These include an efficient single-step approach for interior/exterior acoustic studies, efficient participation factor analysis through parallelization, panel participation factor analysis extended to structural domain response, a new function to compute and output element sensitivity for acoustic responses and a new function to compute particle acceleration on wetted surface. Frequency dependent Trim Component and Pressure load matrices from Actran can now be included in Noise Vibration Harshness (NVH) system models.
PERFORMANCE AND POWER
High Performance Computing for Higher Productivity
Automated Component Modal Synthesis (ACMS) improvements enable automotive NVH analyses to utilize every available processor in a multi-core system (or a cluster of such systems) to improve engineering productivity, showing as much as 2 to 3 times performance gains over the 2010 release as well as scaling to more sockets and cores. Other performance enhancements include: improvements to unsymmetric matrix solution; a new Implicitly Restarted Arnoldi Method (IRAM) for complex eigenvalue solution that has shown up to 2 orders of magnitude improvement; and the ability to utilize a system's NVIDIA CUDA enabled Graphic Processing Units (GPU), which has shown overall performance improvement of up to 5 times. These enhancements provide critical tools for customers doing rotor dynamics, exterior acoustics, and related nonlinear applications.

The Federal's pistol slid into its holster and his sabre flashed out. He threw its curved point up in a splendid salute. Ferry saluted with his straight blade. Then both swords rang back into their scabbards, and Jewett whirled away toward his column. For a moment we lingered, then faced to the left, trotted, galloped. Over the fence and into the road went he--went I. Down it, as we crossed, the blue column was just moving again. Then the woods on the south swallowed us up. "All right, sir." that before. Meanwhile the parallelism between Thought and Extension was not exhausted by the identification just analysed. Extension was not only a series of movements; it still remained an expression for co-existence and adjacency.412 Spinoza, therefore, felt himself obliged to supply Thought with a correspondingly continuous quality. It is here that his chief originality lies, here that he has been most closely followed by the philosophy of our own time. Mind, he declares, is an attribute everywhere accompanying matter, co-extensive and co-infinite with space. Our own animation is the sum or the resultant of an animation clinging to every particle that enters into the composition of our bodies. When our thoughts are affected by an external impulse, to suppose that this impulse proceeds from anything material is a delusion; it is produced by the mind belonging to the body which acts on our body; although in what sense this process is to be understood remains a mystery. Spinoza has clearly explained the doctrine of animal automatism, and shown it to be perfectly conceivable;569 but he has entirely omitted to explain how the parallel influence of one thought (or feeling) on another is to be understood; for although this too is spoken of as a causal relation, it seems to be quite different from the logical concatenation described as the infinite intellect of God; and to suppose that idea follows from idea like movement from movement would amount to a complete materialisation of mind; while our philosopher would certainly have repudiated Mr. Shadworth Hodgson’s theory, that states of consciousness are only connected through their extended substratum, as the segments of a mosaic picture are held together by the underlying surface of masonry. Nor can we admit that Spinoza entertained the theory, now so popular, according to which extension and consciousness are merely different aspects of a single reality. For this would imply that the substance which they manifest had an existence of its own apart from its attributes; whereas Spinoza makes it consist of the attributes, that is to say, identifies it with their totality. We are forced, then, to conclude that the proposition declaring thought and extension to be the same thing570 has no413 other meaning than that they are connected by the double analogy which we have endeavoured to explain. “Oh, he’s welcome to it,” Sandy cried. “I’ve turned over a new leaf!” “But—are they?” He pulled a wire out a trifle from the sheath. The sergeant spent more time upon the oaths with which he embellished the counter-question as to how he should know anything about it, than would have been consumed in a civil explanation. "Doctor, he can't die. He mustn't die," said Shorty in agony. "The regiment can't spare him. He's the best soldier in it, and he's my pardner." AND ENTERS UPON HIS PARENTAL RELATIONS TO LITTLE PETE SKIDMORE. "Holy smoke, look there," gasped Monty Scruggs, as a company of rebel cavalry came tearing over the hill in front, to the assistance of their comrades. "That's about it," answered Shorty disdainfully. "That's the way with all cavalry, dad-burn 'em. They're like a passel o' fice pups. They're all yelp and bark, and howl and showin' o' teeth. They're jest goin' to tear you to pieces. But when you pick up a stone or a club, or git ready to give 'em a good kick they're gone, the devil knows where. They're only an aggravation. You never kin do nothin' with 'em, and they kin do nothin' with you. I never kin understand why God Almighty wasted his time in makin' cavalry of any kind, Yank or rebel. All our own cavalry's good for is to steal whisky and chickens from honest soldiers of the infantry. The infantry's the only thing. It's like the big dog that comes up without any special remarks, and sets his teeth in the other dog. The thing only ends when one dog or the other is badly whipped and somethin's bin accomplished." "Mmm." Reuben started out of the half-waking state into which he had fallen. It was late in the afternoon, the sunlight had gone, and a wintry twilight crept up the wall. Maude the dairy-woman was looking in at the door. It was about a month subsequent to this, that one morning, as Turner was making the anvil ring with the ponderous strokes of his hammer, two retainers from the castle entered the shed, and delivered an order from De Boteler for his immediate attendance. Wat laid the hammer on the anvil, and, passing the back of his right hand across his forehead, to clear away the large drops that stood there, looked with a kind of smile at the men as he said, HoME泷泽萝拉四部和集下载
