SOLVIA Documentation

The SOLVIA System is documented in the following manuals:

• SOLVIA-PRE for Stress Analysis, Users Manual
• SOLVIA-PRE for Temperature Analysis, Users Manual
• SOLVIA-POST for Post-processing of Stress and Temperature Results, Users Manual

SOLVIA Program Versions

The SOLVIA System is available in the following program versions:

Linear Static Stress/Temperature Version
Full size models can be used in linear static stress analysis and linear stationary temperature analysis.

Linear Dynamic Stress/Temperature Version
Full size models can be used in linear static/dynamic stress analysis and linear stationary/transient temperature analysis.

Full Program Version
Full size models can be used for all analysis capabilities in the programs, thus for linear/nonlinear, static/dynamic stress and temperature analysis.

Temperature Version
Full size models can be used for all temperature analysis capabilities in the programs, thus for linear/nonlinear and stationary/transient heat transfer.

For demo purposes, all program capabilities are available in all program versions when a small model employing a limited number of load steps is analyzed.
