2020.0.2 known issues
  • Recognition of Joint in Ansys, when beams include orientation node. 2D joints were recognized as 3D Joints (Ansys); Fixed in 2021 R1 Fixed in 2020.0.2 (Patch)
  • Job was not created when it contains Bolt Pretention load (Ansys); Fixed in 2021 R1
  • Solution was not solved when boundary condition with the same names were created (Simcenter); Fixed in 2021 R1
  • Models with *.afm and *.fem parts were not supported; Fixed in 2021 R1
  • Read results when solution is analyzed on a part of the model (Simcenter 3D). Fixed in 2021 R1
Workarounds
  • Set Full Model in ‘Export Options’ and reanalyze the model:

  • Reduce ‘Result Selection’ to be the same as in ‘Export Options’

DVS 1612 Steel Fatigue Check. Incorrect formula for equivalent UF parameter. Fixed in 2021 R1 Fixed in 2020.0.2 (Patch)

Workarounds

Formula should be updated manually:

  • DNV RP C 203 Fatigue. Calculate UF using overall Principal Stress instead of each separately. Fixed in 2021 R1 Fixed in 2020.0.2 (Patch)
Workarounds

Formulas have to be updated manually:

  • Effective Width Tool – Lateral Pressure used shear force in the plane of a plate. Updated to use shear force perpendicular to a plate; Fixed in 2021 R1 Fixed in 2020.0.2 (Patch)
  • DNV 2010 Stiffener Buckling check. Shear force (VSd parameter) was always 0; Fixed in 2021 R1 Fixed in 2020.0.2 (Patch)
  • Eurocode3 Members (EN1993-1-1, 2005). Swapped Y/Z shear resistance for I-shape (Ansys); Fixed in 2021 R1 Fixed in 2020.0.2 (Patch)
  • EN 13001 (2018) – calculate combined damage (formula 41) as maximum from each orthogonal direction plus respective shears instead of summation of all directions; Fixed in 2021 R1
Workarounds

Parameter Fatigue Damage. Replace formula for Equivalent direction in both Fatigue Checks (Direct and Simplified methods):

  • Output Vector table/plot cannot be displayed for custom output vectors with id > 24000000 (Femap 2019 and above). Fixed in 2021 R1
  • Read combined stresses for beams instead of axial stress only (Ansys); Fixed in 2021 R1
  • Contour plot for custom checks – swapped top/bottom results for shells (Ansys); Fixed in 2021 R1 Fixed in 2020.0.2 (Patch)
  • View location and magnification were not stored to the project (Ansys); Fixed in 2021 R1 Fixed in 2020.0.2 (Patch)
