    speed up the analysis of large model

    large dimension model have a big problem in velocity, particulary with dinamic, for the very old architecture of the software. Some common ideas: multi core implementation (a must, in my opinion) 64bit use of library for graphic cards a benchmark ...

    Support Detail Fig # and Allowable Support Load Ratings

    Ensuring support info (gaps, friction, stiffness) is correct and reviewing support results are some of the more time consuming tasks. It would be very handy to be able to set up a library of support detail figure numbers with allowable load ratings.

    Add Victaulic fitting

    AutoPIPE can model a Victaulic fitting using a number of approach mentioned here . However this is a very difficult and demanding process. Not to mention, that in some case there are converging issues related to multiple Flexible joints on connect...

    Please modify the latest version of Autopipe so that it exports a PST file.

    The pst file is used to automate the preparation of the thermal stress calculation sheet and the support design condition sheet. However, it cannot be used if the version of autopipe is upgraded. Your company's policy is to invalidate assets that ...

    Add Node/Support point text leader lines

    When using AutoPIPE or relating an output report to a model, users need to be able to clearly read the indicated text on screen / screen shot added into an report. This is not easy in congested areas with how AutoPIPE currently displays informatio...

    Increase allowable number of internal data points from 10,000 to 100,000 or more

    AutoPIPE's analysis is blocked if total number of points (piping points+ soil points + frame nodes) is greater than 10,000. Suggest to increase the limit number of node points from 10,000 to 100,000 or more.

    Include option to extract displacement results (at node points) in local axes

    Nodal displacement results in local axes would be immensely useful. I use AutoPIPE for onshore pipelines which are not straight & reviewing the displacement locally is often needed.
