Design analysis

COSMOS, an affiliate of Dassault Systemes, has announced an update to COSMOSDesignSTAR 4.0 software that includes improvements in both the speed and memory management of the solvers, and multi-processor support for the sparse solver. COSMOSDesignSTAR is equipped with meshing tools that automatically reduce element size in cases where the first pass fails to mesh. It offers users a number of ways to refine the mesh, along with a diagnostic tool that identifies problems in the geometry of the model. The program also simplifies analysis of real-life loads such as shrink fit, rigid connection, and thermal contact resistance.
