Marc 2024.1 includes full support for units during pre-processing, new temperature-dependent superelements, a new non-linear advanced friction model, enhancements for defining the initial conditions of a simulation from previous analysis, improvements for modelling the temperature dependency of the mechanical behaviour of rubbers or elastomers, and robustness improvements for the hybrid contact algorithm. MSC Marc and Mentat 2024.1 Tested Picture Release Highlights Key highlights of Marc 2024.1 include: Full unit support for pre-processing The user interface for Marc/Mentat was already capable of indicating dimensions for any user-specified simulation parameter value. In this release, however, Mentat includes unit settings for every parameter. Users can now define their preferred unit system when they create a new model and can change the defined unit...
CivilFEM powered by Marc is a very powerful and versatile program suitable for all the types of advanced analyses performed in all construction sectors, providing a rich set of tools and unique capabilities that streamline the creation of analysis models for Construction, Dams, CAE, Forensic Structural Analysis, Seismic design, Soil-structure interaction, Foundations, Tunnels, Rock and soil mechanic analyses, Skyscrapers, Geotechnics, Mining, Energy, Oil&Gas, Precast, Power Plants: Nuclear, Hydraulic… or any other Civil Engineering major infrastructure.
Marc is ideal for product manufacturers looking for a robust nonlinear solution. It has capabilities to elegantly simulate all kinds of nonlinearities, namely geometric, material and boundary condition nonlinearity, including contact. It is also the only commercial solution that has robust manufacturing simulation and product testing simulation capabilities, with the ability to predict damage, failure and crack propagation. Combined with its multi-physics capabilities that help you couple thermal, electrical, magnetic and structural analyses, Marc is the complete solution that can address all your nonlinear simulation requirements.
