Guide to setup a license server (Windows)

A user's friedly guide to set up license server using LMTOOLS and LMGRD

Sound radiation from ribbed plates to flat plates.

One would expect a ribbed plate to radiate less noise as compared to a normal plate with no ribs. But when I analyse a box with ribbed plates, it radiates more sound as compared to a box with normal plates. Why?

How does VA One calculate hybrid TL for a DAF loaded FE panel connected to two SIFs?

Hybrid transmission loss provides an efficient way of predicting the transmission loss of a complex panel modeled in FE Structure. The main advantage is provided by the SIF and its capability to connect with FE subsystems (i.e. no modeling of the acoustic field with FE acoustics is required). How is this calculated?

How do I run the RAYON solver in Linux?

RAYON is the BEM solver inside VA One, the BEM intermediate solution can be solved in Linux using RAYON.

How to verify connection and availability of license server

How do I apply a velocity or acceleration constraint to the node of an FE subsystem in VA One?

Structural velocity/acceleration constraints not built in the GUI, however three possible approaches to this are listed below:

Heat Sources in Sysweld

From finite element point of view, a heat source is modelled in SYSWELD by a volume density of energy named Qr (W/mm3) applied to elements, which move along the welding trajectory.
