PITTSBURGH, PA – ALGOR, Inc. announced that its latest, major finite element analysis (FEA) software release, ALGOR V22, significantly upgrades all areas of FEA – modeling, simulation and results evaluation and presentation.

New and improved features include: expanded support for 64-bit systems, now including pre-processing and post-processing, allows users to handle larger models faster than ever before; analysis of open channel flow, involving a free surface between a flowing fluid and a gas above it, such as marine systems, drainage systems and liquid column gauges; a multifrontal massively parallel solver (MUMPS) for distributed memory systems, which allows faster solution of linear and nonlinear stress and fluid flow models; damage analysis for 2-D plane stress elements, primarily intended for simulating damage onset and growth in fiber-reinforced composite materials; and a software wizard to automatically calculate and apply remote loads to a stress model, such as a torque load to simulate twisting.
