Abaqus for CATIA v2.5.2 for v5R18

Abaqus for CATIA V5 brings Abaqus finite element analysis (FEA) technology
into the CATIA V5 user environment. CATIA V5 provides the powerful and
flexible design capabilities, and Abaqus for CATIA V5 makes the design model
and the simulation model one and the same. The result is a complete package
for deploying proven FEA-based simulation throughout the design process.

We’ve teamed up with global leaders in the automotive and aerospace
industries to help set the development direction for Abaqus for CATIA V5 by
specifying and evaluating new features. With the benefit of their input,
Abaqus for CATIA V5 tackles a range of high-value workflows without leaving
CATIA V5. Automation and scripting tools open Abaqus for CATIA V5 to
customization and additional efficiencies for scenarios that you perform on
a regular basis.

Automatic contact detection greatly simplifies the way users define and
manage interactions. The wizard-based approach quickly steps the user through
detection options. When the user hits Run, AFC automatically detects all of
the likely contact pairs in the model. There are also several options
available to help the user verify, merge, edit, and delete detected pairs.

CATIA integration is extended with enhanced support for CATIA Knowledgware,
publications, and sensors. Close integration with the CATIA V5 user environment
is one of the most important capabilities of AFC. With Version 2.5 this
integration becomes even closer now that AFC features can make full use of
Knowledgeware, publications, and sensors, further enabling analysis templates,
interactive design loops, and knowledge capture within AFC models.

Support for 64-bit architecture is available. Abaqus for CATIA V5 Version 2.5
is available in both 32-bit and 64-bit installations. To take advantage of
the 64-bit architecture, you must use Abaqus for CATIA V5 in conjunction with
a 64-bit installation of CATIA V5.
