Software update includes advanced markup technology

IronCAD has released an update to Multiphysics for IronCAD (MPIC), a seamlessly integrated multiphysics simulation tool that provides fully coupled multiphysics for stress, thermal, electrostatic, and fluid analysis.

The update includes new, patented extended markup language data (XMD) technology. In addition, an updated unit system allows flexible customization to accommodate different industries with single-button control. The existing moving-least-squares (MLS) FE tying has been further refined to detect the intended/unintended small gaps/overlap of parts automatically in large assembly analysis. Analysis report improvements include direct links for easy review.

In the new, automatic parts contact/impact analysis, the default setting has been refined to help CAD users solve general mechanical contact/impact problems. Complex contact analyses such as deep drawing or stamping springback problems now can be done using the default setting.
