VA One 2024.0

The VA One 2024.0 release places key focus on following additional improvements.

Highlights of this release:

• Numerical SEA
  • Introduction of Numerical SEA method: Complex structures which are difficult to model with classic, analytical SEA representations are represented more accurately by seamlessly automated, component-level FE models to provide key SEA parameters.  This enables high accuracy of complex structures within the context of an SEA framework which retains its performance advantages for large models and high frequencies.  The initial version of Numerical SEA focuses on demonstrating the advantages of this approach for periodic structures - more complexity and expansion to non-periodic structures are planned in future releases.
• SEA
  • Power Injection Modules will use VPS solver
• FEA Modeling
  • GSP on FE Structure
  • Rotational Results
  • Import Export quadratic shell elements from pc file
  • Read Unsupported Nastran cards script
• General
  • Alpha wrapping in shrinkwrap
  • Clipping plane orders changed to be more intuitive to user
  • Trim modeler uses custom results “Thickness”. Ability to view results in units other than SI
     

Please be advised that the Stress, DFAT, Shock and Path 49 modules were removed from VA One 2024.0 while under compliance review as part of the process of integration into Keysight Technologies. 

These modules, if needed, are available in all previous VA One versions (2023.5 and earlier) and will be made available again in all future releases beginning with VA One 2024.1 which is planned for March 2025 release.
