NISA / ACIS
Integrated Environment for the NISA™ family of
programs
As NISA Software, Inc. became a licensee of Spatial Technology's ACIS Kernel, the
ACIS SAT data translator enables you to import the topological and
geometric model data into DISPLAY III/IV. This is available for all
ACIS-Kernel-based CAD modelers like AutoCAD/Mechanical
Desktop, CADKEY, Bentley MicroStation Modeler, and Solid
Edge.
NISA/ACIS, a direct & seamless interface, provides a dynamic
environment for the finite element modeling and analysis of the 3D
designs created using the ACIS geometry kernel. Solid models are
imported into Nisa Software's modeling systems & DISPLAY III/IV in the form
of higher order NURBS surfaces and curves (along with topological
data) to ensure accurate geometry transfer.
DISPLAY III/IV’s powerful and robust AUTOMESHER can mesh the
transferred geometry using either solid or shell elements with a single
click of the mouse. The
automesher generates
either all hexahedron, all
tetrahedron, or mixture of
different types of solid
elements. For surface
meshing, models with all
quadrilateral elements can
be generated. Loads and
boundary conditions can be
applied directly to the
geometry. Analysis can be
performed from within
DISPLAY III/IV or sent for
batch processing of either
single or multiple runs. The
results of the analysis can
be viewed using the
advanced post-processing
features of DISPLAY III/IV.
In addition, DISPLAY III/IV
offers powerful tools for
manipulating the geometry
to perform mapped
meshing operations.
MACRO language can be
used to create models for
parametric studies. MATH
operator can be utilized to generate user defined quantities from the analysis results.
