UI Changes Not Affecting Functionality
- UDFs for folios also changed to be a tree structure.
- Model window interface updated to use a tree structure similar to other resources.
- Interface improvements for Resource Manager.
- "Show All," "Show Only Unused" and "Show Only Duplicates" now properly highlight the option that is selected.
- A status bar at the bottom of the window indicates which resource is selected, the Local/Global view option and the Selection option.
New Resources
- New Resource: Metric [NEW] . Shows calculated results value from a model or simulation result. Result values can be manually added to a history log and tracked over time.
Application Specific Modifications
All platform modifications are reflected and added to each individual application.
Additionally, this section presents specific major modifications that apply (are unique) to an individual application.
Weibull++/ALTA 10
- Platform-wide modifications (see the list at the top of this page).
- Fractional Failures Analysis Discount failures based on planned corrective actions effectiveness for what-if analysis. [NEW]
- Weibull/ALTA Multiple Projects Open multiple projects at the same time. [NEW]
- New 3D-Plot Folio added. New original 3D plots [NEW]
- Catastrophic Degradation Analysis -Direct MLE solution options for Degradation Analysis added, allowing for catastrophic degradation analysis. [NEW]
- Publish Analysis to the Synthesis Enterprise Portal
- Folio information
- Workbook Reports
- QCP Access
- Plots
- Data
- Folio Properties and Categorization added. Similar to project properties, a folio includes a superset of Folio Properties.
- Folio/datasheets can now be associated with a Metric Variable. Track and plot (and even analyze) changes in analysis metrics over time.
- ... In-process. Additional details forthcoming ...
- Reliability Data Warehouse (RDW) Functionality Expanded and interface redesigned.
- ...
- ...
- ...
BlockSim 10
- Platform-wide modifications (see the list at the top of this page).
- BlockSim General Enhancements. General Interface and Analysis enhancements were made. [MODIFIED] [NEW]
- FMRA View Expanded. Additional functionality and capability added to the BlockSim FMRA view. [MODIFIED]
- BlockSim Multiple Projects Open multiple projects at the same time. [NEW]
- BlockSim's Results Dashboard Modified and expanded. [MODIFIED]
- BlockSim Templates available in pre-synthesis earlier versions are reintroduced. [NEW]
- Diagrams can now be associated with a Metric Variable. Track and plot (and even analyze) changes in analysis metrics over time.
- ... In-process. Additional details forthcoming ...
- ...
- ...
- ...
RENO 10
- Platform-wide modifications (see the list at the top of this page).
- Drag & Drop Mode Enhanced and can now be used in tabbed view as well.
- Templates are brought back and added
