BETA-CAE Systems 25.1.2

BETA is now part of Cadence announces the release of the 25.1.2 for ANSA, EPILYSIS, META, KOMVOS, SPDRM, ANSERS and FATIQ, with critical bug fixes and selected implementations.


Known issues resolved in ANSA

Geometry
- Selected CONS belonging to meshed Laminate macro areas, were not highlighted.
Shell Mesh
- During Direct Edit, providing tangential point would not work for mesh without underlying geometry.
Batch Meshing
- When executing a layers’ scenario, volumes of any inactive sessions that were previously executed would erroneously be deleted.
CFD DECKs
- Output of FidelityPBS meshes was exporting duplicate patches, when non-conformal interfaces definitions existed.
Laminate Tool
- The contents of laminate layers on geometry would not be modified.
Modular Run Management
-Performance has been significantly improved up to 40% in Saving Subsystems to SPDRM & FBDM, in cases where Smart Connectors have already been applied at the time of save.
- Furthermore, focusing on the Simulation Model Build Performance, there is an acceleration of Build Action “Check Assembly Status” up to 70%.
Data Management
- Upon downloading a Subsystem Group, ANSA would falsely use the model action specified in ANSA.defaults (inputparams.ModelAction) instead of displaying the “Merge Parameters” window. Now the respective window pops up and the user is allowed to decide on the Model Action.
Optimization Tool
- Optimization tool charts and plots, open in separate tabs, were not one-to-one linked with the original charts that were open in the Results tab.
Scripting
- Unexpected termination could occur when an Abaqus IMPORT entity type was used as an argument in this function.

Known issues resolved in META

Generic
- Contact Gap data from .intfor files were not loaded properly when requested on specific interface sets.
- When saving an .xlsx file, the font size of the row and column headers was not set to a readable size.
- In addition, bad handling of type *ELEMENT_TSHELL_BETA led to erroneous properties and possible unexpected termination while saving METADB.
LS-DYNA
- It was not possible to read parameter expressions within parentheses inside brackets, although correctly defined.
Abaqus
- META would terminate unexpectedly when reading results without a description from .odb files, produced by AutoFENA.
nCode
- Results on elements were not loaded correctly.
- Also, results from .fer files containing mid-nodes were not read properly.
ParaView
- Displacement results from VTU files were not read correctly.
Data Management
- In DM Ribbon, parent DM Item Id was lost upon refresh action in DM Browser.
Identification of Entities and Data
- META would cease unexpectedly when creating a stress linearization path from parametric point paths tool.
HTML3D
- Flow paths were not updated properly upon label change.
Toolbar Designer
- “Expand into User Toolbars” submenu option did not work properly since v25.0.0 and on.
Template Manager
- Geometry and results were not loaded from .h3d files, using a template file.




BETA CAE Systems is an engineering software company committed to the development of best-in-class CAE software systems that meet the requirements of all simulation disciplines. Amongst the company’s products, the ANSA pre-processor and the µETA post-processor, hold a worldwide leading position, in many sectors, including the automotive, railway vehicles, aerospace, motorsports, chemical processes engineering, energy, electronics, heavy machinery, power tools, and biomedical.
ANSA is an advanced multidisciplinary CAE pre-processing tool that provides all the required functionality for full-model build up, from CAD data to ready-to-run solver input file, in a single integrated environment. ANSA is the users' preference due to its wide range of features and tools that meet their needs. The list of productive and versatile features is long and the alternative tasks and processes to be completed using them are countless.
META is a thriving multi-purpose post-processor that meets the diverce needs of various CAE disciplines for processing solver results until a complete reporting. It owes its success to its impressive performance, innovative features and capabilities of interaction between animations, plots, videos, reports and other objects. Offered in a package with ANSA or as a single product, META with its high performance and level of automation and customization, eliminates the need for use of any other post processing tool. Porting product data and meta-data from diverse CAD systems to CAE pre-processing is a challenging task that requires advanced and configurable tools.
CAD to ANSA Translators provide an advanced solution to efficiently translate CAD data to ANSA format. The translators make it possible to access geometry and meta data (part number, material, gage, part location in assembly, etc.) from the CAD files. The translators can either be setup to run as a stand alone batch operation from the command line, or for a large number of jobs can be driven through the provided GUI to manage the settings and monitor the translation progress.


Cadence is a pivotal leader in electronic systems design, building upon more than 30 years of computational software expertise. For 10 years in a row, Fortune magazine has named Cadence one of the 100 Best Companies to Work For.
Cadence Design Systems, Inc. announced it has completed its previously announced acquisition of BETA CAE Systems International AG, a leading provider of multi-domain, engineering simulation solutions. BETA CAE accelerates Cadence’s Intelligent System Design strategy by expanding its multiphysics system analysis suite with highly complementary products, enabling Cadence to offer a more comprehensive portfolio to its customers. BETA CAE has a very strong footprint in the automotive vertical sector and at leading companies in the aerospace, industrial and healthcare industries.
