Composites Design
New Functionalities
- Junction Lines Wizard
- This wizard:
helps you create junction lines,
checks and validates existing or new junction lines,
shows locations where junction lines are missing or incorrect,
provides tools for an easy modification of iso-thickness areas for simple
cases.
- Grid Angle Cut Wizard
- This wizard is a quicker and foolproofer alternative to the manual
command.
- Material Addition Wizard
- This wizard is a quicker and foolproofer alternative to the manual
command.
- Multiple Core Sampling
- Creates or reviews several core samplings.
- Gap Offset
- Creates a gap offset on either a no splice zone or a butt splice zone to
take the manufacturing tolerance into account.
Enhanced Functionalities
- Workbench
- For a better efficiency, commands are grouped differently and made
available only when needed.
- Panel Definition
- A reference element can now be split into sub-elements, with specific
staggering information.
Close reference elements are now managed.
Staggering information is displayed in the main Panel Definition dialog box.
- Flattening
- An option lets you now create and store the flatten curves as a sketch.
- Interactive Ply Table
- Tools have been added for an easier selection of Composites data.
The dialog box has been enhanced with more attributes.
- Material Excess
- Butt splice zones with Gap Offset are supported as input.
- Import/Export of Composites Design data
- .xlsx files are now supported in Import Laminate,
Grid Definition, Stack-up file from zones,
