MSC Marc and Mentat 2025.1
Marc 2025.1 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. Available versions: 2025.x , 2024.x , 2023.x , 2022.x ,… MSC Marc and Mentat 2025.1 Tested Picture Release highlights of Marc 2025.1 include: Hybrid contact formulation updates The recommended hybrid node-to-segment contact algorithm introduced in earlier releases is now set as the default for all new models for structural analysis (static or dynamic). This approach activates a double-sided contact formulation that primarily uses penalty-based enforcement, significantly reducing the...
