    *GET Command

    Hi, I"m doing minimising deflection of a central hole in plate using ANSYS. To do optimisation, how do I use the *GET command to retrieve a value and store it as a scalar parameter? The value I want to retrieve is the deflection in the Z direction ie the deflection at the central hole.

    Deflection of plate with hole

    There are 3 types of loading:torsional, pressure at the central hole and symmetry loading at 4 corners of the plate. Since it's symmetric I work on only a quarter of the plate. The aim is to minimise the deflection at the central hole in the Z direction and optimise it with siffeners. The design...

    Deflection of plate with hole

    Hi, i would like to do an analysis of a deflection of a plate with hole using Ansys. I would like to minimize the deflection of the hole by adding stiffeners around the hole, but i am not sure how to go about it. I am not sure what to define as my design parameters, objective function and state...
