ANSYS Workbench - Simulation Introduction is an intuitive up-front simulation tool that is used in conjunction with CAD systems. It verifies product performance early in the concept and in the early design stages of product development.

The use of this tool enhances accelerated product development processes by providing rapid evaluations of multiple design scenarios and reducing the need for multiple designs and testing iterations. ANSYS Workbench - Simulation Introduction provides solutions for structural, thermal, modal, linear buckling, and shape optimization studies.

The training course provides students with the ability to operate ANSYS Workbench - Simulation and the basic understanding of simulation concepts and results interpretation.

Course Topics Include:

• Introduction
• Simulation Basics
• General Preprocessing
• Static Structural Analysis
• Free Vibration Analysis
• Thermal Analysis
• Linear Buckling Analysis
• Results Postprocessing
• CAD & Parameters
• Asynchronous Solution (Appendix)
• Fatigue Module (Appendix)
• Shape Finder (Appendix)

ANSYS Workbench-Simulation Structural Nonlinearities is for engineers that need to perform structural nonlinear analyses using the Workbench-Simulation environment. It is intended for users already familiar with the procedures for performing a linear static analysis in Workbench-Simulation. The course introduces the nonlinear solution procedure and covers how to setup a structural nonlinear analysis, define nonlinear solution options, and review the nonlinear results. Advanced contact analysis procedures are discussed for simulating contact between two or more solid bodies. In addition, metal plasticity, hyperelasticity (including curve-fitting tools to help translate experimental data to strain energy density function coefficients), how to diagnose non-convergence problems, and how to interface with ANSYS are also covered in the training course.

Course Topics Include:

• Structural Nonlinearities
• Advanced Contact
• Metal Plasticity
• Hyperelasticity
• Nonlinear Diagnostics
• Accessing ANSYS Options

Each course chapter is followed by "hands-on" workshops and exercises.
