Vdisp 18.2 Build 1 Patches: New Features

[ top ]

Crashing when using with Windows 2000 operating system.
[NCR 1605] (Fixed 22 June 2007)(Released in Release 2)
The 'Condensed' Output View has been amended to show stresses in addition to displacements if the Boussinesq method is chosen.
[NCR 1903](Fixed 17 August 2007)(Released in Release 3)
The contour of settlements on to the plan view, some part of colouring is missing.
[NCR 976] (Fixed 12 February 2007)(Released in Release 4)
The results line from tabular output stretches over two lines.
[NCR 1663] (Fixed 21 September 2007)(Released in Release 4)
Improper diversified colors from the graphics plan view, when the button "fill contours" is active.
[NCR 2027] (Fixed 21 September 2007)(Released in Release 4)
Gateway seems to be not auto-updating with Graphical Input.
[NCR 1667] (Fixed 10 December 2007)(Released in Release 5)
Mindlin analysis fails to give realistic displacement results at the precise level of soil profile boundary.
[NCR 2314] (Fixed 10 December 2007)(Released in Release 5)
High chainage input seems to be plotting with wrong scale in graphical input/outputs.
[NCR 2318] (Fixed 10 December 2007)(Released in Release 5)

[ top ]

A new 3D graphical output view has been implemented to improve the representation of the displacement profiles for the input and output.
A 'Gateway' window has been implemented to provide easy access to input data, tabular data and graphical views.
The Vdisp Toolbar has been implemented to provide easy access to the most frequently used views and commands.
The menu structure has been re-arranged to provide a separate 'Graphics' menu to access settings for the Graphical Output view.

The menu item ‘File | Export’ that allows export of textual output view data to csv, html and rtf etc is not available.
[NCR 51] (Fixed 14 September 2006)
If displacement lines are overlapping on a plan view at a point, Line graph should allow to select at a particular line instead of top always.
[NCR 60] (Fixed 05 December 2006)
On reading files it ignores Soil Profiles that have no strata at all. This may though, throw the cross-referencing from Soil Zones which refer to profiles.
[NCR 61] (Fixed 11 December 2006)

Data files may now be emailed directly from the program's interface via the 'File' menu.
The text output of the results view has been improved. It may now be exported to a range of file formats via the 'File' menu.
Standard sets of units (SI, kN-m, kip-ft and kip-in) may be selected via the Units and Preferences dialog.
So as to help users to ensure that they are running the latest software a new version checking system has been implemented. This compares each executable file installed locally with the set that Oasys identifies as being the 'current' version. (The comparison is carried out locally; no data is transmitted to Oasys.) Executables for which updates are available are highlighted. Updates may then be downloaded from the Program's Downloads page on the Internet. This system enables rapid delivery of bug fixes and, occasionally, minor enhancements.

Saving of condensed results only doesn't appear to be correct. When the data file is saved only the results for the first point on the grid are stored, it should store the results for all of the grid points, and the first element of the level array within each grid point.
[NCR 3] (Fixed 09 October 2005)
Contouring intervals - some omitted at end of range - gap in filled contours.
[NCR 12] (Fixed 16 June 2005)
After changing the Young’s modulus of the soil profile data, the Results View may not be updated. Though the results are consistent with the input data that is displayed in the Results View, they may not be consistent with the input data that has been entered by the user.
[NCR 20] (Fixed 26 September 2005)
"Displacements at area centroids" option allows only at level 0.
[NCR 21] (Fixed 18 October 2005)
Unnecessary soil profiles that contain no strata data should be ignored, rather than creating 'empty' soil profiles.
[NCR 22] (Fixed 18 October 2005)
Vdisp may crash during an analysis.
[NCR 42](Fixed 30 June 2006; released in VddCal.dll 30.0.1.0)

[ top ]

Percentage unit (%) is missing from strain output table.
[NCR 2377]
Deleting soil profiles does not update the drop list in the Soil Zones table.
[NCR 2378]
Numerical format for display of input data in TableView is different from OutputView and can lead to misleading analyses.
[NCR 2379]
Allows the user to enter a Youngs Modulus that varies through the thickness of the soil for a Mindlin analysis, though Mindlin analysis does not consider non-linear soil properties.
[NCR 2380]
Soil layer with 0 kN/m2 Young's Modulus is permitted but give erroneous results that fail to plot a plan of the settlements.
[NCR 2381]
Giving all entities a ‘Name’ field would help to interpret results in the output view, rather than having to rely on the numerical IDs only.
[NCR 2382]
When outputting coordinates in the 'kip-in' coordinate system, their resolution is lost to the output view by truncation to fit the column widths.
[NCR 2383]
