NISA Version 17
Released!
New Version 17
Comes with an Enhanced DISPLAY IV
& Better CAD
Interoperability
NISA Version 17 has been
released. This significantly improved
version offers an enhanced DISPLAY IV, NISA's
powerful interactive graphics Pre and
Post-processor. The new DISPLAY software
streamlines complex finite element modeling,
analysis and results interpretation for a better
user experience. Additionally, the new
DISPLAY has improved interoperability allowing it
to interface more easily with a variety of popular
CAD file formats.
A major enhancement
in DISPLAY IV is the new advanced tetra-meshing
capability, allowing users to easily create solid
mesh models with minimal effort. New
context-based menus and toolbars have been added
along with functional keys for quick and easy
access to all options. Additionally,
contact-element creation based on user-defined
tolerances has been added. To enable users
to generate reports in HTML with ease, report
generation capabilities have been added in the Pre
and Post-processing
steps.  NISA Version 17 now
allows users the ability to create more complex
and detailed models by extending node and element
numbers to eight digits allowing much larger
problems to be solved. The advanced NISA solvers
have also undergone significant improvements. For
example, Augmented Lagrangian formulation for
surface to surface contact-element has been added.
Fatigue analysis of spot-welds is now supported in
ENDURE, NISA's fatigue and fracture module.
HEAT III, NISA's heat transfer module is now
incorporated in EMAG, the electromagnetic module
of NISA, to allow coupled electromagnetic and heat
transfer analysis.
Another
significant development in NISA Version 17 is its
integration with Engineering Technology
Associates' (www.eta.com) software product eta/VPG, an
advanced FEA-based system analysis tool.
