Allow thermal exchange between nodal surfaces via convective links

One click to convert solid components into point mass with automatic calculations and assignments of total mass, center of gravity location, and moment of inertia [Contains source code]

Introduce coupled diffusion analysis (structural diffusion, thermal diffusion, and structural thermal diffusion) in both static and full transient analysis

Expose piezoelectric, thermal-piezoelectric and thermal-structural solver capabilities

Facilitate to automatically export various data during the �Update� process for a Component/System/Project and Design Point

Use parameters correlation results to create the DOE for a Response Surface Optimization and automatically deactivate minor parameters with the ability to reuse Design Point values

Scale the density of selected bodies at the environment level by a factor, average density or total mass

Exposes some useful utilities of DesignModeler

Additional Design of Experiments types: Full Factorial, LHS with Parameter Relationships (+ ability to match allowed values). Provide some useful utilities: Import Parameters and DOE, Correlation to DOE, RSO to Direct Optimization, Import Parameter Bounds, Export Parameter Bounds, Define Parameter Bounds by Percentage, Remove Failed DOE Points.

Create a new Direct Optimization system based on the Response Surface Optimization definition and results

Automatic settings of dynamic contact angle for VOF simulations. Write out a UDF source file to calculate the dynamic contact angle and build the UDF library (users do not have to directly edit and compile the UDF source)

Include realistic bulk material loads as standard in your ANSYS Mechanical structural analysis to optimize heavy equipment design and reduce reliance on hand calculations and prototyping.
