Quick Access Toolbar (QAT)
–Select the down arrow to the right of the Quick Access Toolbar
–Choose “Customize Quick Access Toolbar” from the drop down list
Ribbon Toolbar
Ribbon tool
Structure panel
• Structure tree contains following objects
Tool guide
Different tabs and their uses
Selection
Component
-it is important when assigning different material to different parts of same geometry
-component can be created manually by right click the design and select new component from popup menu
-it can be copied, moved , mirrored ,cut ,deleted , and renamed
Pull tool
• Used to create sketch into 3D object
• Multi-functional tool
–Extrude, Revolve, Sweep, Offset and Draft faces
–Create Rounds (Fillets), Chamfers or Extrude edges
–Pull a point to create Line
Pull tool
Move tool
• Used to move sketch , 3D object using move handle
• Multi functional tool
–Translate
–Rotate
–Pattern

Multi physics analysis
Parameter management
• The following analysis types are available in ANSYS Mechanical:
•Structural Static (Linear and Nonlinear)
•Structural Dynamic
−Modal
−Harmonic
−Response Spectrum
−Random Vibration
−Transient (Linear and Nonlinear)
−Rigid dynamics
•Thermal (Steady-State and Transient)
•Magnetostatic
•Electrical
•Multiphysics
Mechanical interface
Basic analysis procedure in ANSYS
• An analysis can be described in the context of four main steps:
•Preliminary Decisions
•Preprocessing
•Solution
•Postprocessing
• Preliminary decisions include which type of analysis tool to use for analysis
• Preprocessing includes importing geometry , mesh generation , connection , coordinate system ,
loading ,support ,
• Solution include analysis for results
• Postprocessing include analyzing results , comparing results
Preprocessing steps
1. Geometry
- importing geometry
- assigning material property
-for surface body thickness must be supplied
2. contact
-when 2 or more body is joined together ,it is the contact which
defines type of connection between bodies.
Contact type Normal behavior(separation) Tangential
behavior(sliding)
Bonded No gaps No sliding
No separation No gaps Sliding allowed
Frictionless Gap allowed Sliding allowed
Rough Gap allowed No sliding
Mesh
Mesh generation
- a default mesh is automatically generated during solution
- we can modify the mesh generated , finer the mesh better will be
the result
Mesh control
-Sizing control by providing element size
loading and support condition
• Loads are defined in vector or component form
• Load can be defined in global or local coordinate system
• Load can be applied at remote point using remote force
• Different support systems are fixed support , displacement, elastic
support, frictionless support, cylindrical support, compression
support
Engineering data in work bench
