Ansys

Hello there :) I am Snehal Sha, now a 3rd year CS student at MEsiuuuu. So.. recently I got a pretty niche internship at a cool company called Ansys and I was asked to share my journey so here it goes. Chapter 1 Just google it As kids, most of…

For this week’s Script Tip Friday, Ansys Lead R&D Engineer Miu Lin Edson shows us how to use APIs available in Ansys Sherlock to easily set a component’s locations properties, mount point configurations and run an analysis to determine component reliability. What is the optimal location to place a component…

Today’s Script Tip comes from Ayush Kumar and Vishnuram V, Senior Applications Engineers at Ansys. Sometimes you might be interested in plotting contours on elements or nodes that are not available in mechanical and are created during the solve phase. Examples: Spring elements Contact elements etc … The methodology uses scoping.on_mesh_property operator to extract the COMBIN14(spring element) mesh and uses mapdl.smisc operator to extract the MAPDL smisc results for spring forces. We also pass the result mesh to workflow operator to plot the contours.

This week’s Script Tip comes from Pierre THIEFFRY, Senior Principal R&D Engineer at Ansys. While Mechanical offers a wide coverage of the capabilities available in our Structural solver, there are occasions where you will not find a specific result. …

Today’s Script Tip comes from Pernelle Marone Hitz , Lead Applications Engineer at Ansys, and Vishnu Venkataraman, Sr. Applications Engineer at Ansys. In this tip we’ll go over how to filter the results of a dir command. Pernelle: To check all available methods and properties of an object we often…

A story of my deep dive into the world of topology optimisation and additive manufacturing — Once upon a time, I took a course called Additive Manufacturing. This story is a recollection of the final group project of the course. FYI, additive manufacturing (AM) production deposits a layer of material on top of another layer, microns thick, under high heat and pressure, usually created and sustained…

The first Finite Element (FE) commercial software I learn is Ansys Workbench, and it is quite intuitive to me to get hand on it for the beautiful user interface, very powerful CAD software-SpaceClaim. …

V K Jadon, Professor and Dean If I ask you a question why you are inclined to learn about the finite element method. Your answer may be: “I am interested to know the behavior of a system or a process for my PG project” “I am interested to know the…

Integrating PyAnsys with Plotly’s Dash and the Dash-VTK component to build an Ansys structural analysis web application — ANSYS recently announced it is supporting an open source project: PyAnsys. PyAnsys is split into multiple packages: PyMAPDL for interacting with an instance of an Ansys multiphysics simulation and equation solver and PyDPF-Core (& its simplified sibling PyDPF-Post) for post-processing Ansys results files. This is a companion article to Ansys…
