What's New?

2022 R1 introduces a new product, Ansys Forming. Ansys Forming is an all-in-one forming simulation software built to digitally design and validate every step of the sheet metal forming process leveraging the speed and accuracy from the LS-DYNA solver.

  • Increased confidence in correlating test and simulation data with the new noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) toolkit inside Ansys Mechanical. Users can easily read physical test data and compute the modal assurance criteria (MAC) to compare simulation data and physical test data.
  • Additional insights into PCB thermal performance with high-fidelity PCB models from Sherlock that can now be exported to Ansys AEDT Icepak for thermal analysis simulations.
  • LS-DYNA solver continues to add exciting new features in many areas like dedicated isogeometric analysis (IGA), advanced new materials, and material laws for multiphysics applications, which can be used for battery-abuse modeling, electrophysiology, and many more areas.
