SAMCEF Gateway allows SAMCEF users to export SAMCEF data either from a CATIA V5 analysis document or from SAMTECH Transparent Extended Analysis products (TEA Mecano & TEA Thermal) based on CATIA V5.
SAMCEF Gateway gives a basic access to linear static, modal, non-linear structures and stationary thermal analyses of SAMCEF. SAMCEF Gateway also allows to import SAMCEF results for post-processing in CATIA V5. |
|
Using SAMCEF Gateway, CATIA V5 users are able to quickly produce linear, non-linear, mechanical and thermal models by adding specific features to an existing model built within their environment.
SAMCEF Gateway speeds up the design work thanks to the use of a single user interface for the geometry definition, the analysis data definition, the meshing, the translation into SAMCEF files and the post-processing. SAMCEF Gateway provides users with extended solving capabilities, in a fully associative environment.
With SAMCEF Gateway, SAMTECH answers customer needs from medium and large industries wishing using SAMCEF embedded in CATIA V5 in order to eliminate the expensive iterations during design process.
Solution Sets:
- The linear static analysis solution set of SAMCEF Gateway produces a SAMCEF Asef basic access;
- The modal analysis solution set of SAMCEF Gateway produces a SAMCEF Dynam basic access;
- In the non-linear structures analysis solution set of SAMCEF Gateway, a Newton-Raphson procedure is used to solve the mechanical equilibrium equations with the multi-frontal solver of SAMCEF Mecano. The solver strategy selection is automatically performed. You can use the very robust contact algorithms of SAMCEF Mecano allowing large relative displacements and rotations;
- In the steady state thermal analysis solution set of SAMCEF Gateway, a Newton-Raphson procedure is used to solve thermal equilibrium equations with the multi-frontal solver of SAMCEF Thermal. The solver strategy selection is automatically performed.
