SAGE Profile V2.1 will be released soon!

This new version will include the version 2.0 of the FE engine. Built-in features are detailed below.

New features in the V2.0 Engine:

• Advanced Boundary Conditions, apply a fixity, one sided fixity, a spring or a single displacement in any Degree Of Freedom at node. Allows to easily introduce Flow Line End Terminations and Inline Tee Assemblies into your model,
• Quasi Static Loading, advanced load control ensures that loads are applied in a quasi static manner,
• Non linear bending: elastic piece-wise linear stress/strain and moment/curvature relastions can be defined (besides the existing Ramberg Osgood curves),
• Hydrodynamic Force definition, define your currents in terms of height above seabed, direction and magnitude and the corresponding drag force is automatically applied to the pipeline,
• Fixed Camera View Point, position the camera anywhere in space and monitor the evolution of a buckle, span, etc. during the analysis,
• Mass scaling, factor the response of the model (i.e. the accelerations) to allow to use a bigger time step and run the simulation in less time.
