LMS(Leuven, Belgium) has introduced LMS Virtual.Lab Rev 5. This releaseoffers new and complete applications for structural analysis, vehicleride and handling, interior acoustics simulation, road noise, anddurability analysis. Rev 5’s new capabilities automate repetitive tasksand capture complex simulation processes in templates.
The new Auto-Recursive Solver in LMS Virtual.Lab Motion records up to60% time savings in solving complex simulation models with a longseries of linked components and high numbers of contact points betweencomponents. This eliminates the calculation bottleneck for thesimulation of the dynamic behavior of timing chains, belts, trackedvehicles, complex production machines, etc. To guarantee realisticsimulations with high fidelity, Rev 5 also introduces a new LMSVirtual.Lab Correlation module for validating virtual models with testresults, or alternatively, with validated models of similar designs.
Virtual.Lab Rev 5’s other new or updated capabilities include newautomation and customization options; integrated drivers for suchindustry-standard solvers as MSC.Nastran, NX Nastran, ANSYS, andABAQUS; a new module for random vibro-acoustics; a motion capabilitywith solver technologies; and new modeling capabilities to simulatesystem dynamics.
