MultiMechanics, a provider of computer-aided engineering materials analysis software, has released tools to be used with Dassault Systèmes SIMULIA Abaqus software for customers working with composites.
The combined solution gives Dassault Systèmes users access to MultiMechanics’ material analysis tools within Abaqus/CAE.
TRUE Multiscale Technology can reportedly predict complex failure mechanisms observed in advanced materials. Initially a standalone tool, MultiMech can now be embedded into a range of CAE software platforms, so engineers can perform concurrent multiscale analyses within their preferred workflow.
‘Through our open technology and partnership strategy we fully support MultiMechanics in the integration of their physics-based TRUE Multiscaletechnology into Abaqus,’ said Dennis Corain, director of SIMULIA Alliances, Dassault Systèmes. ‘Since composite materials are widely used in the aerospace industry and are gaining more use in other industries such as automotive, wind energy, and consumer products, this integration allows each of our global user communities to leverage best-in-class technologies to rapidly optimize the structural performance of composite parts.’
