Altair RADIOSS-1

Crash, Safety & Impact Altair HyperWorks Altair RADIOSS is a leading structural analysis solver for non-linear problems under dynamic loadings. It is highly differentiated for scalability, quality, robustness, and consists of features for multi-physics simulation and advanced materials such as composites. RADIOSS is used across many industries worldwide to improve the crashworthiness, safety, and manufacturability of structural designs. Product Highlights • Best scalability for large, highly non-linear structural simulations • Most complete material and rupture libraries • Unique feature for accurate airbag simulations • Rich multiphysics capabilities • Wide offer of FE Safety models, dummies, barriers, and impactors Learn more: altairhyperworks.com/radioss Benefits Scalability, Quality and Robustness RADIOSS' advanced multi-processor solution (Hybrid Massively Parallel Processing) has enabled the best scalability in the industry for large, highly non-linear structural simulation. Special provisions in the implementation guarantee full repeatability of results regardless of the number of computer cores, nodes, or threads used in parallel computation. Numerical scattering of results is highly minimized. The use of Advanced Mass Scaling (AMS) and intelligent single precision calculation option increases simulation speed by orders of magnitudes while retaining the same accurate results. AMS provides an advanced and competitive solution for quasi-static problems, model with smaller mesh size locally. AMS is also an alternative to implicit non-linear simulation which has convergence problems due to high non-linearity in the contacts, complex material behaviors, or rupture modeling. With RADIOSS' multi-domain approach, detailed and accurate analysis can be achieved with a significant elapse time decrease. The model is split into different domains which are computed with their own and adequate time step. Applications such as detailed meshed parts in a global structure, and ditching (fluid and structure in different domains) have big advantages with the RADIOSS multi-domain approach. Industry Standard for Crash, Occupant Safety and Impact Analysis For over 30 years, RADIOSS has established itself as a leader and an industry standard for crash, safety and impact analysis. The number of customers continues to increase at an impressive rate to include over 1000 companies worldwide, with 40% of these customers in the automotive industry. RADIOSS is ranked with a 5-star worthy crash code. Automotive and aerospace companies value the contribution RADIOSS makes in understanding and predicting
