RADIOSS

RADIOSS Technology Now Available in HyperWorks
The service release of 8.0 will deliver RADIOSS and the following products in
the RADIOSS technology suite under Altair's patented HyperWorks Unit (HWU)
licensing system - further increasing the value proposition of HyperWorks.
RADIOSS solves the following class of problems:
Structural simulation.
- Structural simulation for dynamic loading including crash, shock,
impact, earthquake, wave propagation.
- Linear and nonlinear vibration simulation (modal and frequency).
- Linear and nonlinear static simulation.
Safety and biomechanics simulation.
Manufacturing process simulation including stamping, hydroforming
and machining.
Fluid simulation.
- Fluid behavior under external loading.
- Aero-acoustics structural behavior.
- Heat flow included in the material law behavior.
- Fluid-structure interaction.
Airbag simulation including fluid with non-uniform pressure and use of
fluid-structure interaction for out-of-position occupants.
