Our clients are focused on designing and engineering their products, not on simulation tools. As a trusted advisor, SimuTech helps you gain insight to improve product efficiency and reliability.
We add value to your ANSYS projects at no additional cost. You receive our local, trusted advice, support and expertise - and we have in-depth access to ANSYS developers. We’re here to help.
Of SimuTech’s 80+ employees, over two-thirds are engineers, most holding Master’s or PhD degrees. Our tech support engineers perform the same type of work our clients do.
We’re proud to offer SimuTech Support®. Ten local offices throughout the US and Canada are available during normal business hours to answer calls and provide onsite assistance.
ANSYS considers customer satisfaction ratings and depth of staff certification in both technical and sales ranks, business growth, and overall sales volume when it selects its Channel Partners.
While most clients use ANSYS software on their in-house computers, SimuTech can assist when you require additional computing or engineering resources. Check out SimuCloud®.
ANSYS Workbench Mechanical v15.0 supports “External Model” – a facility for directly importing an ANSYS Mechanical APDL model’s CDB mesh file into Workbench for subsequent study or results postprocessing in a Workbench Mechanical schematic.
ANSYS Mechanical (Workbench) has many settings for contact between surface body (shell) faces. This article examines a setup to employ with bonded contact across a gap between surface body midplanes in large deflection nonlinear analysis.
This article briefly reviews features in the Workbench Mechanical Outline for displaying element quality (1) in color in the Mesh branch, (2) using bar charts of element quality, and (3) plotting element quality in postprocessing after element shapes have been distorted by strain in a model.
Stress singularities are frequently encountered in finite element analysis. This video discusses what stress singularities are, how they behave, some ways to avoid them, and strategies for interpreting results near a singularity. Mesh convergence is also discussed.
There is an ACT object on the ANSYS customer portal that can be used for element birth and death in Workbench Mechanical. This video tutorial presents a method that uses simple APDL Commands Objects to kill a spring element, and to bring it back to life, at selected load steps during an analysis.
In this video, a CFX memory allocation troubleshooting method is shown. This video shows you how to identify which type of memory allocation has failed, and in which CFX executable this occurred in (interpolator, partitioner, or solver).
