Selected notable improvements from major releases are
highlighted on this page.
DynaN v2026
List of new features includes:
Added a new
Copy Prev. Row button in several input screens (such as Data > Soil Layer Data and
Data > Pile Sections) to save time when entering data for new soil layers and/or pile sections.
Added a new template under
Data > Pile Group Coordinates for the automatic generation of pile-coordinate data.
This is now available for rectangular and circular pile layouts with user-specified spacing between piles.
New
Interactive Footing Response Amplitude function for users to view the response amplitudes
at any user-specified Reference Point (with XYZ coordinates) instead of only at the mass center
of gravity (which was the limit in previous versions).
Double-precision is now used in the numerical computations for real and complex variables.
This new feature solves many issues of instability for complicated applications and improves
the convergence of the numerical iterations in an efficient manner.
Users can now select to
Generate a Formatted Report in Microsoft Word format. The user may select
to include in the formatted report several tables to echo print the user's model
data and also several different output tables and graphs.
Users can now select to
Export Plots to a file in Microsoft Excel format. The user may select to
export the background data for any graphics so it can be further analyzed or
formatted on an external spreadsheet.
Simplified pile section input so for the most commonly used models with piles of
uniform cross section, the user can now enter a
single row of pile section properties for the full pile length. This is different
than previous versions that required multiple pile section entries that correspond
to each subsurface layer.
Added a feature to upload
time history or
random load data from an external text file and also
the alternative to copy and paste these values from clipboard
(from an external spreadsheet).
Many improvements were also made to operational features and smaller technical
additions, such as:
The position and dimensions of the main window interface is saved and used on subsequent openings.
Improved the
3D View display for models with an embedded pile cap.
A new Single Sign On (SSO) feature is introduced for licenses of large corporations
(Enterprise Level Remote Subscription Licenses) to ease the login and licensing process
for their unlimited number of users.
