Performance

Performance improvements include the reduced solution time and better convergence of results for certain nonlinear studies, the reduced time for initial loading of Simulation studies, and the availability of a new direct sparse solver for large problems.

Enhancements for nonlinear studies include:

  • Better convergence for node-to-surface no-penetration contact formulation with overall performance improvement for up to 30%.
  • Improved accuracy of results for shells with plasticity material models when using small displacement formulation.

Contents

  • Initial Loading of Simulation Studies

    The time for performing initial loading of models with Simulation studies is reduced. The performance improvement is more prominent for models with multiple Simulation studies.

  • Large Problem Direct Sparse

    A direct solver is available that leverages multicore processing capability and improves solution speed for static and nonlinear studies.
