Support of 4D table fields (Simcenter Samcef)

In Simcenter Samcef structural and thermal analyses, you can use 4D table fields to model relationships between a load (or constraint) value and an independent domain that includes both spatial coordinates and a single non-spatial variable like time or temperature.

  • In Simcenter Samcef structural analyses, you can use 4D table fields when you create Temperature Load, normal Pressure, Degree Of Cure, and Glass Transition Temperature loads.

  • In Simcenter Samcef thermal analyses, you can use 4D table fields when you create Temperature, Convection, and Cavity Convection constraints. You can also use 4D table fields when you create Surface Flux, Volume Flux and Radiation loads.

For more information, see 4D fields.
