    Cylindrical Symmetry - Wheel Rail contact - Ansys Workbench 13

    Hello Everyone I have to do the analysis of the wheel-rail contact, and I'm having some trouble with the symmetry aspect of it. Consider the wheel-rail assembly as in the attachment. As you can see, the wheel is reduced to 20º or so, of its cross-section. To do a simple static analysis, I...

    Acceleration Tabular Data

    Well Ian, at first the suggestion of setting the number of time steps equal to the steps on the acceleration table seemed to help, however with a deeper search on google I found out that Explicit Dynamics "does not support tabular data to specify the magnitude or components of Accelerations or...

    Acceleration Tabular Data

    Hello everybody I need to execute a drop test on ansys workbench, and for that I need to add an acceleration curve (AKA crash pulse). I inserted a acceleration object in the workbench tree, set my coordinate system, and define the acceleration by components, and proceed to add the tabular data...

    Exporting Line Bodies with Parasolid to ANSYS Workbench

    Hello there. I'm trying to simulate bolts in ANSYS using beams, and to do that i'm drawing them as line bodies. It would be easier to draw them inside ANSYS, however I have a fairly complex geometry, with lots of bolts, already modeled in SW. So, in the end, I need to export the line body along...

    ANSYS Workbench - Airplane Chair Drop Test - Which Solver?

    Thanks, but I really don't have the time to learn a new program right now. If you have any knowledge about the explicit module on ANSYS Workbench, please advise.

    ANSYS Workbench - Airplane Chair Drop Test - Which Solver?

    Hello there Eng-Tips My master thesis consists in making a drop test of an airplane chair, and I want to do this in workbench, however, I don't know which solver to use. From what I've been reading and exploring in workbench, there are 3 solvers: Explicit Dynamics, AutoDyn, Explicit Dynamics...
