Description

SABR is a comprehensive package specifically designed for the conception and design of shafts, gears, and bearings. Its development focuses on seamlessly integrating into the design workflow to significantly shorten the product development cycle, offering an easy-to-use graphical interface that enables detailed modeling of transmission systems tailored to the current phase of the design. Furthermore, SABR facilitates sensitivity analyses to assess the impact of various geometric characteristics, types of bearings, and gear placements, providing instantaneous feedback. The underlying solvers are rooted in recognized engineering standards and leverage Ricardo’s extensive experience in product design, manufacturing, and testing, ensuring they remain current with practical testing and development initiatives. With a straightforward and user-friendly graphical interface, users can efficiently create accurate models. The software also supports bearing analysis, including life calculations and stress visualizations that take loading and misalignment into consideration. Additionally, it accommodates complex duty cycles with various load paths and supports the design of parallel, epicyclic, and bevel gears, making it a versatile tool in the field.

Description

nCode DesignLife serves as a proactive design tool that pinpoints essential areas and estimates realistic fatigue lifespans based on top finite element (FE) analysis results applicable to both metals and composites. This innovative tool empowers design engineers to enhance their approach beyond basic stress assessments, enabling them to simulate real-world loading scenarios and thereby mitigate the risks of both under-design and over-design in their products, which can lead to expensive modifications later on. Additionally, the software offers features like virtual shaker testing, fatigue analysis for welds, vibration fatigue assessments, crack growth monitoring, fatigue evaluation for composites, and thermo-mechanical fatigue studies. It leverages advanced technologies for analyzing multiaxial stress, weld integrity, short-fiber composites, vibrational impacts, crack propagation, and thermal stress fatigue. With a user-friendly graphical interface, it facilitates comprehensive fatigue analysis using data from leading FEA tools such as ANSYS, Nastran, Abaqus, Altair OptiStruct, LS-Dyna, among others. Moreover, it incorporates multi-threaded and distributed processing capabilities, enabling efficient handling of large finite element models and optimizing overall usage schedules. This powerful combination of features ultimately ensures that engineers can deliver more reliable and efficient designs.
