Digimat-MAP is a 3D mapping software used to transfer fiber orientation, residual stresses and temperature from the injection molding mesh to the optimal structural FEA mesh.
Digimat-MAP is fully integrated within DIGIMAT’s multi-scale modeling process. Digimat-MAP is an accurate, efficient, robust and flexible software tool used to transfer the fiber orientation, residual stresses and temperature between dissimilar injection molding and structural analysis meshes where they can be used by Digimat-MF to FEA interfaces (ANSYS, LS-DYNA, Abaqus, PAM-CRASH, SAMCEF...) to perform state-of-the-art nonlinear multi-scale analysis.
- From mid-Plane to multi-layered shell
- Between continuum 3D elements
- Across the shell thickness
- First order tetrahedron and triangular shell elements for donor meshes
- First order hexahedron and wedge elements for donor meshes
- First order hexahedron and quadrangular shell elements for receiving meshes, in addition to first order tetrahedron and triangular shells
- Fiber orientation predicted by Moldflow Mid-Plane, Moldflow 3D and SigmaSoft
- Initial stresses predicted by Modflow Mid-Plane and Moldflow 3D
- Temperature field predicted by Moldflow 3D
- 2 through thickness mapping methods for shell elements:
- Allows you to reduce the number of layers in your FEA analysis with respect to the number of layers present in the original injection molding mesh
- Visualize tensorial data
- Synchonized post-processing
