Hello Folks!
I am just want to know how to correctly apply the ANSYS Transient-Thermal analysis with a Structural analysis in order to perform a complete welding simulation and visualise the final distortion and residual stress field.
I have done some thermal simulations with appropriate results but when it comes to couple the simulations I think it is not easy how to set the bounday conditions, the material temperature dependent properties such as young modulus and stress-strain curves, etc.
Does anyone know some tutorial or internet site that could clarify the procedure?
