Ansys Books or Tutorials

[seymours2571]

Does anyone know of some good Ansys tutorials or any books that can be purchased? I am familiar with FEA and some other lower level FEA packages. Thanks in advance.

Ansys/ed - if you don't have a licence, the educational version of ANSYS is the best tool for learning. It is about $300. The ansys documents in the software are the best learning tools in my opinion. ANSYS distributors also offer short courses but they are expensive. Sorry, I have never heard of an ANSYS book. There SHOULD be one!

There are some helpful web sites. Try (not in any particular order):

http://homepages.strath.ac.uk/~clas16/~fyfe/ansys/joints/catapult.html

http://www.ansys.com/education/resources.htm

I'd also suggest the '/Ed' version' - it is limited in capabilities, but the help files with it should be of assistance.

Go to Amazon.com and search on "ANSYS Tutorial". There is a book available from Kent Lawrence. I don't have it but I got it from the library once and it was good.

Good website from the University of Alberta in Canada:
