Marc – What is it?Advanced Nonlinear Structural + Multi-physics Analysis



83/2/2016

• Simplified Approximations Compromise

Accuracy and Safety

- Cannot reliably predict geometric material

& boundary nonlinearities

• Nonlinear Analysis is essential for

investigating:

- Large-strain effects, plasticity, friction,

dynamic loads, large deflections and

motion.

- Metallic and Non-Metallic materials

exhibiting nonlinear behavior (e.g. shape

memory alloys, plastics, elastomers,

composites, etc.)

- Effects of physical coupling with thermal,

electrical, fluid, magnetic, etc.
