Durability

RecurDyn/Durability is a toolkit for fatigue simulation that calculates fatigue strength and durability such as fatigue life, fatigue damage, and safety factor from the stress and strain results of a flexible body obtained through MFBD (Multi Flexible Body Dynamics) analysis. It provides the prediction theory for engineering fatigue and about 180 material libraries.

Media Transport

RecurDyn's media transport toolkits are for analyzing transport systems for flexible media, such as paper, films, and cards. This toolkit automates the modeling and analysis of sheets as flexible bodies and dramatically simpliffes the creation of rollers and guides, making it the ultimate tool for the layout and design of media transport systems. In addition, the toolkits also include various sensors and tools to model air resistance, suction, and static electricity.

Time Signal Generator

The RecurDyn/TSG finds an actuator signal in a RecurDyn model that causes an output signal (like a position, velocity, or acceleration) in the RecurDyn model to match an existing target signal provided by the user. This enables RecurDyn to reproduce a behavior that was measured in an actual mechanical system.
