    Add redundant anchor for thermal load only

    As AutoPipe limited node to 10000 only, for bigger model we model part of the system and we need to apply boundary conditions at the discontinuous node, if it is defined as anchor and apply node displacement (for thermal growth) this fictitious an...

    Add a method to acknowledge Warning message as to not constantly appear.

    When reviewing Model Consistency Check report, some warning messages will constantly appear regardless of addressing the warning. Example W726-10:  User SIF required at junction  at following point(s) Require a feature be added where reo...

    PCF import: add feature to map component attributes to over-ride default mappings

    I think there should be a feature for component attributes mapping on a GUI (dialog) so users can over-ride the default mappings. I am thinking of following grid like GUI. Also suggest to have a button in order to restore defaults so if anyone wis...

    Modeling soils in AutoPIPE should be simplified

    In my opinion modeling of soils in AutoPIPE takes to much time and could/should be simplified. For selected part of the model, including simultanously vertical, horizontal or inclined segments, there are four geometrical methods to define a terrai...

    Total Computing Power

    I noticed that Autopipe uses a limited amount of computer power. In a time-history analysis with a modal frequency of 400hz on a relatively small model it took about 30min using only 6 to 9% of the computer's processing power. An improvement in pr...

    Tangent Elbows

    Hi - is there a way to include consecutive elbows or bends in AutoPIPE? We have a model with back to back elbows and the model does not render the geometry well. Second, it appears that the Elbow forum is missing previous pages. Is Bentley still w...
