A simplified file and project management system helps keep projects organized, while a more sensor-centric analysis process focuses on what GageMap does best. Other improvements to core functionality include better support for static load cases and improved mechanisms for model scaling and sensor scaling in both the sensor optimization and fatigue tasks.
In addition to an overall improved design, GageMap now offers hot and cold geometry compensation, the ability to simultaneously analyze multiple models at once, and simultaneously analyze and compare sensor strains and stresses against fatigue margins. APEX will continue adding both new and legacy features to the new GUI as time progresses. The new GUI is also fully backwards compatible with older versions of GageMap, and any GageMap licenses will work for both versions.
