What's New in ESI ProCAST 2023

The 'Whats new'-presentation of ProCAST version 2023, with enhancement such as quality of the 3D mesh creation, volume orientation definition and possibility to have multiple scales in results views. This presentationen is intended to bring the most valuable release insights in front of our users and customers and help them to achieve their product design and development goals.

Horse saddle distortion modelling in Visual Weld

Welding of structures involves complex interactions between thermal, metallurgical and mechanical phenomena leading to residual stresses and distortions, which play a major role during subsequent service of these structures. Controlling material characteristics, residual stress and keep distortion within tolerances via the computer can significantly enhance the performance, the quality of the product and the structure’s service life

Restart Sysweld thermo-metallurgy and mechanical calculation in batch mode

The aim of this article consists to show sysweld/systus users how to perform a restart computation when a calculation run in batch mode is stopped in middle for some reasons or not.

Overview of CSM Welding Advisor in Visual Environment 18.0.2

This tip is to give an overview of new CSM welding advisor in Visual Environment 18.0.2. This new advisor comes in replacement of Visual Welding advisor and uses Assembly solver to perform transient welding simulation.

Friction Stir Welding modelling with an Axi-symmetric tool

Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is an innovative technology, which allows a solid junction of heterogeneous alloys, using a wear-resistant rotary tool that follows the welding seam. ESI Welding solution allows todays to predict temperature generated by FSW process. The proposed methodology is based on local approach that cannot give global distortion of the welded components. The aim of this article is to show how user can setup it own FSW process and run the computation using Visual Weld application

States: optimize the writing and reading of sessions with States

States within IC.IDO sessions allow the user to optimize what gets written to the session when saved and what is loaded at session opening and what attributes to apply to the session during use.
