Altair RADIOSS is a next-generation implicit and explicit finite-element solver for linear statics and dynamics as well as complex nonlinear transient dynamics and multi-body dynamics. This robust, multidisciplinary solution allows manufacturers to maximize durability, NVH, crash, safety, manufacturability and fluid-structure interaction performance in order to bring innovative products to market faster. What is RADIOSS? What is RADIOSS Linear? RADIOSS Linear can perform the following Small Displacement FEA Implicit Solutions: Linear Static Normal Modes Inertia relief (Linear Static, Gap, Frequency and Transient response) Linear Buckling Composites Nonlinear Gap Frequency response (direct or modal) Random response Transient response (direct or modal) Heat Transfer RADIOSS Process Consistent Units All internal calculations in RADIOSS are unit-less. It is the responsibility of the user to create the model using a consistent set of units. The equations that governs consistent units are: Force = Mass × Acceleration Mass = Density × Volume Acceleration = Length / Time2 As an illustration: Element Quality Checks RADIOSS’s pre-processing phase incorporates element quality checks Prevents poorly discretized models File Structure Input Output Section Input Output Section The I/O Options section controls: location and names of the input, output and scratch files, type of run (analysis, check or restart) overall running of the analysis or optimization, and, type, format and frequency of the output.
