    Combin14 element

    Hi mhisham... you should try combin14 element with keyopt 2 for 1D behavior for example KEYOPT,1,2,1 where 1 is element type, 2 is keyopt 2 and 1 is for 1D behavior in x direction only. For more information please see in the Ansys help of combine14 element.

    import geometry from Ansys Classic to Ansys Workbench?

    You should write your file as CDB format in Prep7-Archive model-write. then use the FE Modeller to read in CDB files.

    import geometry from Ansys Classic to Ansys Workbench?

    Hi, thanks for reply. Actually I have modeled a pressure hose in Ansys Classic by APDL commands. I want to get that model in Workbench also. How i Can do it?

    selecting Key-points by x,y,z locations?

    Hi Thanks once again.... actually i could not select the desired lines, keypoints or areas in new model because i dont know their new names and they are beneath the 3 area layers. But now, I came up with a solution... some how i managed to know the volume numbers of those.. and now i am able to...

    selecting Key-points by x,y,z locations?

    Dear Hugo Silva, Thanks a lot for your reply. I knew this method which you told me in above. Actually I am comparing two models, One old model and another model in which i have added some extra layers for modelling of rubber and reinforcement. So now in the new models names of keypoints, lines...

    selecting Key-points by x,y,z locations?

    Dear All, I wanted to ask, Is there any way to select keypoints by giving the x,y,z locations? I have a complex geometery, on which i have to select keypoints by its locations. I know KSEL,a,LOC,x, command but with this you can only give one dimension i.e. x, y or z and its range. There is...

    how to make do while loop

    Hi, I want to do steady static analysis on a pressure hose. I want to make a *dowhile loop regarding the pressure load. I mean loop should be like at the first step it applies pressureload=1 MPa and with the incerease in every cylce in keep on incerease line pressureload=2, pressureload=3...

    Maximum EX/EY ratio in reinforcement modelling

    Hi All, I am modelling a pressure hose with small steel reinforcements in it. Actually we are using the solid-shell element 190 with LINEAR material properties which are a little bit ORTHOTROPIC (ratio ca.2/1). Because of the hookean law which is used with the element we can not represent the...

    Natural Frequency as output parameter?

    Hi all, I am in a big trouble. As i am stuck with my research. Please help me with this problem. I have some values of natural frequencies from a experiment on a pressure hose from lab. Now I want to validate it from Ansys model and simulation. I am able to get pretty close results from...
