Hi,
I am modelling an internally reinforced beam, composed of steel sheet of 2 mm in ANSYS MECHANICAL APDL. I am applying concentrated loads as simple bending. I need the deflection results in at least one point. Shall I use the point where the load is applied? Or any other point is suitable...
Hi,
I am designing a multi-solid CAD model in INVENTOR and I am trying to import it to ANSYS MECHANICAL APDL for FEA. I tried to import it in .x_t, .sat, .IGS. Nothing works. The best I can get is a good geometry in the .sat format, but ANSYS quickly crashes if I try to do something to the...
Hi,
I am using ANSYS Mechanical APDL in the company I am working in and I need to run +100 APDL input files. What should I do to automate the process? I would like to know if there is any tool that allows me to create of input files to be run by order and save the relevant parameters to text...
Hello,
So I want to manufacture a structure with cross ribs, as shown in attachment. My question is: how can I manufacture it? I think it is better to manufacture the ribs and the plate separately. I was thinking about using angle soldering, but the surfaces have much different dimensions, and...
Hello all,
I would like to have bibliographic references of books about the mass moment of inertia, area moment of inertia, center of mass. centroids, etc.
Thanks,

Hello,
I am doing a CAD draft on Inventor, and I have a part that has 1000 mm lenght. It does not fill the paper. I know how can I break the part, but what about the dimensions? How can I tell the model that I want to reduce 900 mm, lets say, and still have a 1000 mm dimension, with the break...
Hello All,
I am modelling a structure in ANSYS APDL and I need to compare the Inertia moment of the structure given by ANSYS with analytical calculations. My structure can be considered as several rectangular parts. I know that I=b*h^3/12 in relation to the center of mass. But for this case, in...
Hello all,
I am trying to manufacture a ribbed plate that is reinforced inside with stiffeners. I can weld the stiffeners to one plate, but then I want to weld the other plate, and I can't access the reinforcement. The stiffeners have low thickness, like 2-3 mm. I´m attaching a picture of a FEM...
Dear all,
I´m new in this forum. I don't even know if this section is the most appropriate to post my question.
I want to manufacture a steel beam that is ribbed inside. Basically it´s an hollow-box beam, but it is not bulk along the thickness. It is internally reinforced with steel ribs. I...
