1 Introduction The Uniaxial Compression Test (UCT) is used for the determination of the compressibility and Unconfined Yield Strength (UYS) of bulk solids in the pharmaceutical, cosmetics and consumer products industries among others [1,2]. The test can be used to determine the UYS more rapidly and at higher consolidating…
Altair® EDEM™ 2023.1 is now available with lots of exciting new capabilities and improvements. Central to this release is the advanced analysis in the form of Recorded Factories which allows users to split the simulation to run multiple scenarios by reusing the mass flow of the simulation. This will dramatically reduce the…
Composite Steel Design in S-FRAME/S-STEEL Composite steel beams utilize the compressive strength of concrete in tandem with the tensile strength of steel to facilitate efficient, yet structurally sound designs. When designed correctly, composite steel beams can offer longer beam spans, reduced steel beam sizes, and less…
This is to predict the blank shape when there is a trimming or piercing operation is available in the multistage setup with an open trim line/multiple lines. Step 1. Run the complete simulation with the flat blank. Step 2. Extract the outer edge of the final stage blank component for prediction. Step 3. Predict the trim…
Altair EDEM can simulate the behavior of functional metal powders as well as particle based electromagnetic and conductive coatings, slurries, pastes, and fillers in electronics manufacturing operations. EDEM simulates particulate materials at the particle scale, providing unparalleled insight into process mechanics and…

Here are some of many highlights of our latest version of Altair compose. for entire list, please visit Compose_2023.1…
In HyperWorks 2022.1, we have introduced several key customization and automation enhancements. Bringing your custom content to any of the HyperWorks clients has never been easier. The following video will take you on a quick tour of the most important updates regarding extensions, API (Application Programming Interface)…
Hello all, HyperView proposes a default reader for unv, whose support is described in the online help below: https://help.altair.com/hwdesktop/hwx/topics/pre_processing/interfacing/hv_interfacing_unv_files_r.htm?zoom_highlight=unv+hyperview That said, this article is intended to collect and document some limitations that…
As HyperMesh supports multiple solvers, it offers some conversion capabilities for allowing to pass a model from one profile to another one. In the latest versions (2021 and upper), we offer different mechanisms for converting from one solver to another: * Material library * HyperMesh generic entities * Hard conversion *…
Buckling with Inertia Relief In OptiStruct, starting from version 2023.1, buckling analysis referring to an inertia-relieved static subcase under STATSUB(BUCKLING) will result in an error message reported to the user (Error message 311). This is because under inertia relief, while the stress states are correct in the…
