Creo Parametric adds automatic Midsurface detection for shell elements

Creo Parametric now automatically detects shell pairs using midsurface geometry. You can use mesh controls for shell elements and review the geometry through a visual representation. This enhancement works with automatic contact detection. Shell pairs are listed in the Model… Continue Reading →

Are you aware of lattice geometry support in Creo simulation live fluids?

You can now use lattice geometry in Creo Simulation Live. When solving a study, you must use the Remove Internal Geometry option to remove the lattice geometry. This enhancement requires additional geometry to apply boundary conditions. User Interface Location: Click… Continue Reading →

Have you explored real-time multiphysics simulation in Creo?

Creo Simulation Live now supports combined thermal and structural physics in a single study. You can use either a thermal or structural study as the primary study and then add the additional physics. The additional physics can also be switched… Continue Reading →

Did you know Creo Ansys study check now detects more simulation issues?

The Creo Ansys Study Check dialog box has been enhanced to display warnings for potential simulation issues. Using the configuration option creo_ansys_study_check_show, you can control when this dialog box appears. The changes in the study check include: User Interface Location:… Continue Reading →

Have you explored outdated probe indicators in Creo Ansys simulation?

An outdated flag icon is now added to the Probe user note in the graphics window. This flag gives you a clear indication of where the results need to be updated. When a model is updated by changing the geometry… Continue Reading →

Have you tried inertia relief option in Creo Ansys simulation?

You can now use the Inertia Relief option to solve unconstrained models in Creo Ansys Simulation. With the Inertia Relief option, a three-point constraint is applied internally to the model. It uses a 3–2–1 constraint with respect to a newly… Continue Reading →
