MPIC-Lite provides robust entry-level analysis capabilities for IRONCAD or INOVATE users that have a perpetual license. It is offered as a yearly subscription fee.
Integration:It is seamlessly integrated into the IronCAD interface, allowing users to apply materials, forces, and constraints directly to their 3D models and run simulations without leaving the design environment.
Analysis Types:The Lite version primarily focuses on core analysis capabilities:
Static/Steady State analysis
Modal/Vibration Modes analysis
Ease of Use:Engineered for both beginners and experienced users, the software provides an intuitive "Auto Solve" function and built-in associativity, which automatically updates and re-solves the analysis if the model is modified.
Technology:It leverages a Strain-Enriched Finite Element Analysis (Sefea™) formulation that provides accuracy comparable to higher-order elements but with lower computing costs, making it efficient for typical CAD models.
Upgrade Path:Users can augment MPIC Lite with add-on functionality (e.g., Advanced Dynamics, Fluid, Electric, Rigid Body Kinematics) or upgrade to the fullMultiphysics for IronCAD (MPIC Core)package as their needs evolve.
