    ANSYS Bonded contact problem

    Hi Carles, thanks for the reply. Yes in DesignModeller I have selected both bodies (incidentally its a 2D problem), and right clicked and selected "form new part". The thing is, I've done this before and it has automatically created bonded contacts between the inner and outer sections...

    ANSYS Bonded contact problem

    Hi all, Sorry if this is a stupid question but just can't seem to get it to work.. I have created a a geometry, frozen it and then used a Boolean operation and sliced the object to create two separate bodies, which I have then joined to create a single part. The point of this is to be able to...

    Transient gear modelling

    Hi Ian, thanks again, and I'm sorry for the delayed response. I currently have the model's constraints as one fixed support and one frictionless support, both at the centre of the gears. The moment is then applied to the frictionless support gear. The value of the moment load itself isn't...

    Transient gear modelling

    Hi Ian, thankyou for the reply. I've read that article before and although I follow most of it, actually doing it is another story, I'm still quite new to Workbench. The CAE Associates simulation seems perfect, although once again quite complex and all that seems to be provided on the site is...

    Transient gear modelling

    Hi all, I'm attempting to simulate the dynamic loading between two gears in mesh during one complete cycle. So far I've managed to get some successful simulations using a static structural analysis, however this is not appropriate for what I aim to achieve. As the gears come in/out of mesh...
