SymLab v1.2 Released for Linux and Windows

By DE Editors

Symscape’s (Enfield, NH) latest SymLab release (v1.2) now supports Linux as well as Windows. SymLab is described as a unified simulation environment that can be extended (using add-ons such as Professional) into a complete computer-aided engineering (CAE) system for fluid flow analysis.

SymLab and our Professional add-on, as well as supporting Linux, lets users arrange multiple geometry views alongside multiple plots with multi-pane window layout manager by dragging and dropping windows within the main SymLab workspace area.

With SymLab Builder, users can create primitive shapes, such as spheres, at multiple geometry centers using a single drag and drop operation, plus they can align multiple geometry entities with reference to a geometry center using Symscape’s new translation alignment tool.

In SymLab Transient, users can create avi movies from a sequence of time-dependent geometry views or plots using our new movie recorder. In SymLab Panel Flow, Symscape invites users to use its enhanced geometry accuracy feature to control the simulation resolution on unconnected geometry within a simulation (e.g., on an airfoil surface, shown here).

The software, which includes free 30-day trials and affordable subscriptions for SymLab add-ons, is downloadable from Symscape.
