Ansys Workbench

This document discusses analysis methods and the finite element analysis (FEA) process. It covers the following key points: 1) There are three main types of analysis: analytical, numerical, and experimental. Numerical methods like finite element analysis (FEA) are commonly used to solve complex problems by dividing models into small segments. 2) FEA uses the finite element method (FEM) to approximate solutions for problems. It involves creating a model, meshing it into elements, applying loads and boundary conditions, and solving for results. 3) Common element types include 0D, 1D, 2D and 3D elements. FEA software like ANSYS automates the FEA process from model

METHODS OF ANALYSIS
There are three types of Analysis
1. Analytical Method
Classical method 100 % accurate but it will take very long time to solve. SOM (we cant solve complex problems)
2. Numerical Method
We divide our models in small segments for calculation.
FEM (finite element method)
FVM (finite volume method)
BEM (boundary element method )
FDML (finite differential method)

3. Experimental Method
100% Accurate result more costly so much time it will take because we create a real object than do analysis on t
that.
FEM (FINITE ELEMENT METHOD)
It will gives us a approx. result solve any type problem (ANSYS/ NX NESTRAN/ HYPERMESH)

FEM : Finite Element Modeling
FEA : Finite Element Analysis
Implementation of FEA via Computer is called FEM Method.
0D Element : to calculate the CG (Center Gravity) . We can apply load on 1 node.

1d Element : 2 nodes
With same cross section on both nodes. (BEAM / LINK/ ROD) with 6 type of freedom MX, MY ,MZ

2D Element : Area

3d Element : we can analysis on 3 nodes, 4 nodes , 8 nodes , solid

ELEMENT TYPES
FEA STEPS
1. Creation of Continuum (Continuous) model
2. Discretization (Meshing)
3. Checking for conversations
4. Apply Boundary conditions (Fixing Part, Support, Apply Loads)
5. Solving
6. Review (Post Processing)
Result

TYPES OF MATERIALS
1. Isotropic (Property are Same in 3 plane)
2. Orthographic (Changes in every plane)
3. Anisotropic (Crystal Property change in every plane)
