Highlights
Optimization entities are supported in the Entity Editor. The Optimization view is enhanced to support show/hide/isolate and cross reference features for optimization entities. Solver conversion from Abaqus to OptiStruct has been enhanced to support element wise convection and thermal analysis cards for powertrain applications. In this release most of the OptiStruct solver features in version 210 are supported in the OptiStruct interface.
