ANSYS Composite PrepPost software offers a wide choice of state-of-the-art failure criteria, along with post-processing capabilities to allow an in-depth investigation of product behavior. The results for the structure can be looked at globally, or viewed in detail down to the layer level, which enables users to identify accurately reasons a structure could potentially fail. Design iterations can easily be performed to take into account geometric changes or material variations.

Useful for the analysis of an end product, the draping capabilities of ANSYS Composite PrepPost software allow users to correctly identify the exact orientation of every layer of the composite. A flat-wrap capability and the ability to create ply books help in product manufacturing. An intuitive interface efficiently defines materials, plies and stacking sequences. Materials can be accurately oriented on the structures using very flexible tools based on coordinate systems definitions.
