Granta EduPack Release Notes 2024 R1

Updates to Sustainability data
Use updated sustainability data to carry out enhanced environmental assessment of materials and products, whilst utilizing refinements to recycling attributes to assess the environmental footprint of your components and products in the Eco Audit Tool
Environmental data attribute updates
As part of a review of our sustainability data, there have been some updates to data values and attribute names, including:
- CO2 footprint, primary production (virgin grade) - renamed to Climate change (CO2-eq), primary production (virgin grade), and a reference data review
- CO2 footprint, primary production (typical grade) - renamed to Climate change (CO2-eq), primary production (typical grade), and a reference data review
- Embodied energy, primary production (virgin grade) - reference data review
- Embodied energy, primary production (typical grade) - reference data review
The following attributes have been renamed, data values updated, and definitions modified, to align with shifts in
industry terminology:


Science Notes supporting sustainability attributes have also been updated in Level 1 and Level 2 English, French, Spanish and Portuguese databases.
Following a review of the Legislation and Regulations Table in the Level 2 Sustainability database, the following records for legislations that are no longer in force have been removed:
- SAVE Directive
- The EU Plant Health Directive (2000)
- Volatile Organic Compounds Directive (VOCs)
Updates to Eco Audit attributes and calculations
Calculations used by the Eco Audit tool have been updated to use the new sustainability attributes data values, ensuring you have access to the latest data for recycled content and end of life potential of materials. Continue to confidently assess the environmental footprint of your components and products using these updates.
As a result of the updates, some Eco Audit product files created in previous versions of the software may not be compatible with the new definitions and calculations. To avoid any errors, certain data values will not be displayed if older project files are opened in Granta EduPack 2024 R1 - if affected you will be alerted in the software and directed to an appropriate Help page for assistance in understanding the changes.


Export more data to Ansys Discovery
Available in Level 3 databases of Granta EduPack
Material data export from MaterialUniverseTM to Ansys Discovery format has been updated for this release. Exported material cards now include the following attributes:
- Embodied energy, primary production (typical grade)
- Climate change (CO2-eq), primary production (typical grade)
- Recycle
Ansys Discovery users can utilize this information to estimate the environmental footprint of their design, and estimate what % of their design is made from recyclable material. Discovery users can also live monitor changes to the overall material environment footprint as both part shape and selected material are updated
Latest versions of specialist materials data
Access the latest pricing data in MaterialUniverse, as well as the latest versions of Global Polymers Plastics and MMPDS-2023.
MaterialUniverse
The core of all databases in EduPack
In addition to the sustainability data updates, there has also been an update to Price data at this release, with 2778 MaterialUniverse records updated.
Notable changes in price were observed in pure metals from the periodic table - with approximately 55% of records having an increase in price, and natural materials - with 60% of records having a price decrease
