EN Life / welded assembly structures postprocessing software fully integrated with HyperMesh & Hyperworks

What is EN Life ?

EN Life is a state-of-the-art structural mechanics postprocessing software tailored for engineers and designers involved in the evaluation of welded structures for the Railway and heavy equipment industry under static and fatigue conditions. This tool is designed to automate complex evaluation processes and ensure compliance with international standards, including AWS, European norms such as EN17149, EN1993 and EN1999 and DVS guidelines..

Key Features

Advanced Evaluation Methods: It allows users to assess welds considering different stress directions and failure modes, providing both conservative and detailed evaluations as needed by suppling enough automation to define and control the desired assessment detail.

Supports endurance or cumulative damage approach

Evaluation of welds with consideration of the stress directions (Parallel, shear, perpendicular to weld line) and with respect of the failure mode (Root / Toe).

Comprehensive Normative Support: EN Life supports static and fatigue evaluation based on:

• EN17149-2. EN17149-3
• Eurocode 3, EuroCode 9
• DVS 1612/1608, ensuring reliable and standard-compliant results.

Customizable Material and Weld Handling : Users can define and modify material and weld properties, incorporating custom test data to meet specific project requirements. Templates can be fully customized and standardized to align with your company’s industrial processes, ensuring the appropriate assessment type is applied.

Altair ® HyperMesh ® and HyperWorks ®  : Seamlessly integrated with Hypermesh ® , offering user-friendly tool panels for weld creation, material handling, and immediate result visualization.
