Ansys Workbench:

The Ansys workbench platform is a backbone for delivering a comprehensive and integrated simulation system. Using workbench for your product development simulations will results in higher productivity from integrated applications and access to multiphysics and systems level capabilities. Ansys Inc. is the company who developed Ansys workbench software. It is the American company based in Canonsburg, Pennsylvania. It was founded in 1970 by John Swanson. Stable release of Ansys workbench 2021 R1 on 26 January, 2021.

Ansys develops and markets engineering simulation software for use across the product life cycle. Ansys Mechanical finite element analysis software is used to simulate computer models of structures, electronics, or machine components for analyzing strength, toughness, elasticity, temperature distribution, electromagnetism, fluid flow, and other attributes. Ansys is used to determine how a product will function with different specifications, without building test products or conducting crash tests. For example, Ansys software may simulate how a bridge will hold up after years of traffic, how to best process salmon in a cannery to reduce waste, or how to design a slide that uses less material without sacrificing safety. Most Ansys simulations are performed using Ansys workbench, which is one of the company’s main product.


Ansys workbench Course Objective:

Ansys Course Objective:

This course will cover all the concept of Finite Element Analysis. The main objective of this course is to make student and corporate professionals proficient enough in CAE using Ansys workbench. The content of Ansys workbench which we are providing here are Static Structural, Modal Analysis, Harmonic response, Buckling Analysis, Explicit Dynamics, Thermal Analysis, Rigid body dynamics. Ansys is equipped with all the capabilities that are required for completing a product design.

Static Structural: A Static analysis calculates the effects of steady loading conditions on a structure, while ignoring inertia and damping effects, such as those caused by time-varying loads. It is used to determine the displacements, stresses, strains, forces in structures or components caused by loads that do not induce significant inertia and damping effects.

Transient Structural: it involves loads that are a function of time. In mechanical application, you can perform a transient analysis on either a flexible structure or a rigid assembly. It can be either linear or non-linear.

Modal Analysis: it is used to determine the vibration characteristics like natural frequency and mode shapes of a structure or a machine component while it is being designed

Steady-State Thermal Analysis: It can be used to determine the temperature distributions in an object with thermal loads that do not vary with time. It includes Conduction, Convection, and Radiation. Most thermal analysis are steady-state thermal analysis.

Transient Thermal Analysis: It determine temperature and other thermal quantities that vary over time. The variation of temperature distribution over time is of interest in many applications such as with cooling of electronic packages or a quenching analysis for heat treatment.

Explicit Dynamics: It enables to capture the physics of short duration events for products that undergo higher non-linearity, transient dynamic force.

Harmonic Analysis: It is used to determine the steady state response of a linear structure to loads that are sinusoidal loads (harmonically) with time, thus enabling you to verify whether or not your designs will successfully overcome resonance, fatigue, and other harmful effects of forced vibrations.

Rigid Body Dynamics: it is the study of the motion of assemblies of bodies that do not deform, but instead move rigidly in 3D space. The free motion of bodies is restrained by joints.
