Safe Technology Enhanced Integration with ANSYS Workbench

By DE Editors

Safe Technology announced the release of the fe-safe Component for ANSYS Workbench, enabling the integration of design durability analysis into the Workbench project environment.

fe-safe is a suite of fatigue analysis software for finite element models. It is used to calculate fatigue from FEA, showing where and when fatigue cracks will occur, the factors of safety on working stresses (for rapid optimization) and the probability of survival at different service lives.

According to the company, fe-safe has always interfaced directly with ANSYS finite element analysis software; the fe-safe Component for ANSYS Workbench is an added capability offered free of charge to fe-safe users that allows close integration and data exchange between the two solutions. The component allows for fe-safe either to be inserted into an existing project schematic in Workbench, or to be defined as a standalone system, with fatigue analyses being conducted from within Workbench.
