    Change in areas number in an opt analysis APDL

    Dear rafaelcacho Have you tried naming those. Using named selection you can specify the parameters whose dimensions you want to change. If I didn't answer your question, that's probably because I didn't understand your question. Thanks Regards Joseph George (Student) M.E Machine Design...

    Workbench MPC contact conflict warning.

    Dear all I am getting a warning in workbench image of which attached along with this thread. I need to include several moments at same points. So I declared several remote points at the same co-ordinates and associated those moments at those remote points.( Workbench ignores multiples forces or...

    Minimum System resource required for transient analysis in Ansys.

    I am performing a transient analysis on a frame which holds enormous forces and moments. The forces are impulsive and exist for even less than a second. I have created the force time relation and the graph is pretty smooth, what I mean to say through that is the number of steps involved is too...

    Ramped and stepped loadings question

    Dear Varnis9 I think the kind of loading is upto you. You have to identify the kind of load that is applied and provide it accordingly. Also in real world a stepped load doesnt seem to make any sense so, make it clear what kind of loading actually it is. Also is it time dependent ( transient )...

    Constraint equation vs Rigid elements

    Dear BlasMolero Thank you for your valueable reply. I decided to resolve all the forces onto the CG as forces and moments and apply the loads instead of transmitting through Rigid elements. Regards Josf1988

    Constraint equation vs Rigid elements

    thread727-341008 I am performing transient analysis on a frame like structure which supports immense amount of force, but these forces are acting some where around the frame in space, so I need to connect these force to the frame through rigid elements and transmit them through rigid elements...
