AliasStudio™ software gives designers a quick
and reliable way to transfer concept designs into the
Inventor application. Supported entity types include 3D
surfaces, 3D bodies, polygon meshes and polylines.

The import wizard maps AutoCAD layers directly to
Inventor composite features and there is now a choice
of importing wires as 3D elements or projecting them
to a 2D sketch plane. The imported 3D surfaces can be
manipulated in the construction environment
and quickly incorporated into 3D Inventor
part models using the Sculpt tool.

Dynamic Simulation
Available in Inventor Professional and Inventor
Simulation Suite
Enhancements to dynamic simulation are focused in
two primary areas: fi rst, to encourage more use of
simulation by reducing the time required to set up and
perform a simulation, and second, to support analysis
of the stress on parts at diff erent points, or time steps,
in the simulation cycle.

Automatic Joint Creation
The setup process for performing a dynamic simulation
is dramatically simplifi ed with the introduction of
automatic joint translation. Assembly constraints in the
assembly model are used to identify the rigid bodies
and joints that defi ne the kinematic state of the system.
The resulting joints are generated automatically with
full associativity to the assembly model.

The resulting joints are generated automatically with

In addition, the translation process searches for
extraneous degrees of freedom—such as fasteners
with unconstrained rotation—to minimize the number
of bodies in the simulation. Users have the option to
override all adjustments made by the translator
when necessary, or to turn the translator off and
create joints manually.

Stress Analysis Integration
Integration of the dynamic simulation and stress
analysis environments is enhanced to provide more
control over which loads are included in the FEA
(fi nite element analysis). A new group in the dynamic
simulation browser shows all the components to be
included in the stress analysis data export.

There is new column of check boxes in the output
grapher for marking multiple time steps for export to
stress analysis. All components that are included in the
export group are evaluated at the indicated time steps,
expediting the comparison of stresses at diff erent
times in the operating cycle.

To simplify the process of identifying load faces,
all components that are not marked for export are
made transparent.

Export Trace Curves to a Sketch
Paths generated from motion studies can be exported
to a sketch for use in modeling.

Enhanced 2D Contact Capabilities
The three 2D contact joint types in Inventor 11 have
been consolidated into a single 2D contact joint type to
minimize the need to choose the reference geometry
type while still retaining the performance benefi t of a 2D
contact joint over a more generalized 3D contact joint.

Usability Enhancements
Numerous usability improvements have been
implemented to remove inconsistencies between the
dynamic simulation and modeling environments. In
particular, face selection is easier with enhanced face
selection view, highlighting of selected load faces, and
improved use of transparency.
