Changes in Editpipe Manager :
Improvement of the stress report generator process: new tool to display the available keywords, inject them in the template, and preview the tables. New keywords were introduced to display nodes, elements, operability criteria, user defined local axes (elements and nodes). A new syntax allows to print only one report from the PIPESTRESS result files (e.g. the report of SIF values).
Changes in Editpipe :
View
Option to display results of automatically generated PIPESTRESS cases.
Option to display operating conditions for all cases on the same table.
Possibility to group equivalent data in the Data Lists.
New "Runs" and "Node Coordinate Systems" Data Lists.
Save filters with the Filter Manager.
Input File Edition
New custom editor for MATH and MATD cards.
The SOIL calculator has been made HDPE friendly.
POSTR input file can be associated to PIPESTRESS input file to get a better integration.
The Quick POSTR tool can be used to edit an already existing POSTR input file.
A tree view is available for POSTR input file.
Interaction between View and Input File
New option to open PIPESTRESS model in split view.
New options to automatically update the view: when saving the input file, when editing a card, when typing or only on demand.
Redesign of the Error and Warnings window and significant increase of the input error detections.

Version multilingue français et anglais.
Nouvelle interface entre BEAMSTRESS et PIPESTRESS. Possibilité de récupérer des torseurs en un support d'une analyse de flexibilité PIPESTRESS et de les transférer au modèle BEAMSTRESS. Définition des données en 3 étapes: association avec le modèle PIPESTRESS via le restart file, liens d'association entre supports PIPESTRESS et noeuds BEAMSTRESS, chargements de type "PIPESTRESS Link" et récupération des torseurs depuis PIPESTRESS.
Nouvelles fonctionnalités de calculs d'ancrages: calculs des ancrages suivant Eurocode 2 (EN 1992-4 Edition 2018); prise en compte de 16 configurations d'implantation des ancrages pour les platines 4 trous, et de 8 pour les platines 2 trous, en fonction des zones de perçage, en plus de la position nominale; nouvelle fenêtre de saisie des platines d'ancrage permettant notamment de modéliser l'excentrement entre centre section et centre platine, possibilité de définir 4 bords libres, informations de cisaillement et de mortier, notion de régularité et de quasi-régularité.
Implémentation de l'Edition 2017 de la norme EN13480: nouvelle condition de vérification ("Faulted condition"), nouvelle vérification des soudures avec introduction de la notion d'inspection de soudures, nouvelle vérification des boulons.
Améliorations de l'ergonomie.
Amélioration du rapport.
Renforcement de la qualité: rédaction d'un Quality Assurance Program (QAP), et rédaction d'un Verification and Validation Report (VVR).
