Known issues resolved in ANSA
General
- Unexpected termination would occur while editing a material database path within Settings.
- Moreover, Transform and Transform [Move] actions, such as pasting CONS/ Perimeters with underlying Volume entities, could also lead to abrupt termination.
Model Browser
- Unexpected termination would occur when an empty configuration was activated.
Data Management
- ANSA would terminate unexpectedly when adapted Subsystems or Group Subsystems containing adapted Subsystems were saved in DM.
DECKs
- Unexpected termination would occur throughout the following cases:- upon activation of Auxiliaries > GEB [GEB GN], when GEB was attached to Rigid material - upon Input/Output of A_POINTs, due to erroneous definition of not Applied entities - upon editing of an existing Thermal loadset, under NASTRAN > THERMAL [Applied Heat]
Plugins
- The Beam Optimization tool would terminate unexpectedly right after starting, when no model was open in ANSA.
Known issues resolved in EPILYSIS
General
- WEIGHTCHECK/GRDPNT would not be calculated correctly in SOL101 case with DMIG (M2GG).
- MUMPS linear solver would fail, when memory was set to "unlimited" during an "IN ANSA" solution.
Known issues resolved in META
General
- META would unexpectedly terminate, when deleting a window during animating.
Read Results
- Default settings for loading stress results on shell elements corners were not respected and scalar results on nodes of CBAR beams could not be read correctly.
- Cases of wrongly interpreted results have been combatted including:
- PIDs from conjugate heat transfer Converge cases in .h5 format and Vector results on nodes of CBAR beams for Ensight.
User Toolbars - Crash & Safety
- FMVSS 201U: File paths on Windows OS were not read correctly from the configuration file.
- Low Speed Impact: The toolbar could not read results in Linux.
- EU-NCAP MPDB: The Hide Flying Elements function had been fixed.
Automation
- Memory leak could occur when using script function results.StartChangingCentroidScalar().
Known issues resolved in KOMVOS
- The variance estimation of the predictions was not computed correctly.
- Feature based group prediction would return zero (0) values for all but the last predictor, when few predictions were requested.

The engineers at BETA CAE Systemssee simulation as a tool that can be used to predict the future. The Swiss company seeks to offer tools for every stage of the product development process, and its vision is to stop trade-off thinking. Instead of working under the constraints of quality, time and cost, the company hopes that customers using its tools early enough in the process will be able to win in all three areas.
Working through a full development cycle can require different tools for different phases.ANSAis the preprocessor tool that accepts CATIA V4, CATIA V5, NX, Pro/ENGINEER and Jupiter Tessellation (JT) files. TheEPILYSISsolver performs structured analysis in both linear and nonlinear paths. TheMETApost-processor offers several options for framing and presenting a study, with a focus on graphics and visualization.
The new version 22.0.0 of the BETA CAE systems software suite comes with numerous new tools and features, designed to facilitate and expand your simulation processes.
ANSA v22.0.0 highlights
BETA is a simulation solutions provider,dedicated to the development of state of the art software systems. For almost 30 years, BETA has been developing tools and delivering services for the front runners of numerous sectors by listening to their needs and taking up even the most demanding challenges.



Compatibility and Supported Platforms
ANSA files saved by all the first and second point releases of a major version are compatible to each other. New major versions can read files saved by previous ones but not vice versa.
META Project files saved from version 22.0.2 are compatible and can be opened by META version 16.0.0 or later.
Support for 32-bit platform has been discontinued for all operating systems.
