NISA / SolidWorks
Integrated Environment for the NISA™ family of
programs
NISA/SolidWorks, a direct seamless interface, provides a dynamic
environment for the finite element modeling and analysis of the 3D designs created in SolidWorks™ . Solid models are imported into
Nisa's modeling systems & DISPLAY III 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.
