BETA-CAE Systems 22.1.2 (x64)

Known issues resolved in ANSA
CAD Import/ Export
Upon Input Model Definition, unexpected termination would occur when activating the Settings via Product Tree Editor > Utilities menu.
Model Browser
Thanks to new methods added in Product Tree class, relations can successfully return among instances of the hierarchy via the respective script function; This refers to, the ids of the top root instances, the parent instance, the children' instances, as well as the corresponding part id of the instance.
Data Management
The user interface area of the main window would cease to respond, when trying to save a Simulation Run in DM using the Alternative FE-Representation, due to an exception that occurred in Build script.
Topo
From now on, the option "Handle as single solid" successfully enables the extraction of middle surface for multiple separate volumes.
Marc
ANSA would unexpectedly terminate when importing a Marc deck file with unsupported syntax.
Optimization
Optimization Tool: Abnormal termination would occur if the Optimization workflow was empty and the "Save in DM" option was selected.
Known issues resolved in EPILYSIS
SOL200
In SOL200 runs, the CDAMP1/CDAMP3 elements would not successfully connect with PDAMP properties. In addition, values from DVPREL entries would not be passed. Unexpected termination would occur in Optimization with frequency response and enforced motion.
Known issues resolved in META
Read Results
Geometry d3Description and results reading is no longer detained on Windows OS.
Annotations
Animation performance would be decelerated, while creating an annotation via "On Selection" option.
Managing Curve Data
Scaling and offset of *DEFINE_CURVE keyword from LS-DYNA input files (entries SFA, SFO, OFFA, OFFO) would not lead to the expected results.
User Toolbars
TPA What If Toolbar would not function properly, in case transfer functions, forces and point mobilities were displayed as curves.



The engineers at BETA CAE Systemssee simulation as a tool that can be used to predict the future. The Swiss company seeks to offer tools for every stage of the product development process, and its vision is to stop trade-off thinking. Instead of working under the constraints of quality, time and cost, the company hopes that customers using its tools early enough in the process will be able to win in all three areas.
Working through a full development cycle can require different tools for different phases.ANSAis the preprocessor tool that accepts CATIA V4, CATIA V5, NX, Pro/ENGINEER and Jupiter Tessellation (JT) files. TheEPILYSISsolver performs structured analysis in both linear and nonlinear paths. TheMETApost-processor offers several options for framing and presenting a study, with a focus on graphics and visualization.
The new version 22.0.0 of the BETA CAE systems software suite comes with numerous new tools and features, designed to facilitate and expand your simulation processes.
ANSA v22.0.0 highlights
BETA is a simulation solutions provider,dedicated to the development of state of the art software systems. For almost 30 years, BETA has been developing tools and delivering services for the front runners of numerous sectors by listening to their needs and taking up even the most demanding challenges.

ANSA files saved by all the first and second point releases of a major version are compatible to each other. New major versions can read files saved by previous ones but not vice versa.
META Project files saved from version 22.1.2 are compatible and can be opened by META version 16.0.0 or later.
Support for Mac OS has been discontinued.
Support for 32-bit platforms has been discontinued for all operating systems.
