General performance enhancements are a common thread throughout this Nastran/ Patran release. Take, for example, explicit nonlinear analyses. On multi-core configurations, the performance has improved by a factor of two. And the 2014 version of the Krylov solver, which reduces the number of matrix factorizations performed during frequency response analyses, sees improved performance with new DMP (distributed memory parallel) technology that enables it to run across multiple compute nodes. Frequency computations for non-symmetric systems are also three times faster.
