Nonlinear Material Model Extender          

This extender adds nonlinear material model capabilities to your core package. Nonlinear material models predict large-scale material deflection, deformation and displacement. Some of the element types, material models and loads and constraints listed below may also be included in your core package.

Typical Applications
  • Material transport and storage
  • MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical Systems) design
  • Press-fit
  • Pre-stress concrete
  • Product life cycle simulation (failure)
  • Snap-fit
  • Snap-through buckling
  • Tolerance testing
  • Underwater design optimization
  • Wear analysis
Analysis CapabilitiesModeling
  • KinePak mechanism wizard to define links and then dynamically examine the motion of various types of basic mechanisms
Element LibraryMaterial models
