Background For parallel running Feko uses Intel MPI to manage communication between parallel processes. Recent versions of Intel MPI have removed support for some authentication approaches and rather support the usage of Powershell to manage shell commands. This necessitates a few minor settings changes in Feko…
In the world of wristwatch design, achieving the perfect balance between weight and strength is a critical challenge. A lighter watch enhances comfort and wearability, while a robust case ensures durability and protection for the delicate internal mechanisms. This article explores effective techniques to minimize the…
The Material Identification tool is based on the Altair Compose environment and allows determining from measurements the parameters and coefficients required to create a material in Flux. The general workflow for most of the materials models in the Flux Material Identification tool, consists of a 3-step procedure as…
Altair® EDEM™ is available on Altair One and continues to prove its market leadership by setting the industry standard for the Discrete Element Method (DEM). Now more powerful and easier to use than ever - EDEM 2024.1 sees the addition of concave polyhedral particles enabling users to reproduce more complex physics when…
Feko's Schematic Link feature is a useful tool for creating realistic connections between MTL cables and the 3D environment. It is possible to connect the cable directly to geometry parts as well as to MoM ports. The video shows the complete workflow for the second case.
Use the ConvertLuaScript utility to migrate legacy CADFEKO Lua scripts to the latest CADFEKO API format. Migration is only applicable to CADFEKO Lua scripts created prior to version 2022.1 (it is not applicable to POSTFEKO scripts). Instructions * Download the attached utility for your system (available for Microsoft…
In metal plasticity, typically only the deviatoric stress is the cause of yielding. Plotting the yield surface in principal stress space, will result in a cylinder whose axis is the hydrostatic pressure line. This indicates that yielding is independent of the hydrostatic stress state, which means that we could have…
Overview This article presents different methods for modelling emergency landing systems using Radioss monitored volumes. The loadcase here is the impact of a vehicle on the ground with an initial velocity. Several approaches are used to model the balloons’ behavior and can be compared: * Uniform Pressure Sub-Chambers…
Even though the majority of Radioss formulations/keywords are available to be set up through HyperMesh pre-processor, some will only be available in future versions of the graphical interface. However, there are still ways to handle these unsupported keywords through HyperMesh, to make the model setup and changes. In this…
