Altair Squeak and Rattle Director 2023.1 Release Notes
New Features
- Support for Acceleration Load
- Sine sweep load creation now supports Acceleration as a load type. This option also creates the associated PARAM card required for acceleration load.
- Constraints in All Direction
- In the Dynamic Event tool, you can use the Constrains in all direction checkbox to create SPC in all directions along with the loading direction in enforced excitations.
Enhancements
- Risk Assessment Tab
- If you switch to another ribbon after loading, the Results tool will clear the contours automatically.
- LCS Rotation Tab
- Automatic increase in LCS size when in the Manage E-Points tool.
- Post Results Plots
- The summary page will have Z Rel displacement bar plots instead of Magnitude plots, full analysis results will have Z Rel displacement contours, and line level plots will show Z relative displacement with gap and tolerance.
Resolved Issues
- Results visualization in combined load cases has been resolved for dynamic and static load cases. Combined loading supports only rattle lines. Previously, squeak lines results were plotted.
