Structures

Ansys Mechanical enables you to solve complex structural engineering problems and make better, faster design decisions. With the finite element analysis (FEA) solvers available in the suite, you can customize and automate solutions for your structural mechanics problems and parameterize them to analyze multiple design scenarios. Ansys Mechanical is a dynamic tool that has a complete range of analysis tools.

Ansys LS-DYNA is the most used explicit simulation program in the world and is capable of simulating the response of materials to short periods of severe loading. Its many elements, contact formulations, material models and other controls can be used to simulate complex models with control over all the details of the problem.

Ansys Motion is a completely integrated simulation environment for both component and system modeling. It provides fast and accurate analysis for both rigid and flexible bodies, simultaneously, all from a single solver. System motion performance, stress-safety analysis, heat transfer, vibration and fatigue are integral. Ansys Motion is the most robust and advanced simulation solution for multibody dynamic system design.

Ansys Additive Solutions, a comprehensive and scalable software solution, allows you to minimize risk and ensure high quality, certifiable parts. Dive deeper into the properties of your printer parts, ensure traceability of your data, optimize build files and more. Our software lets you create additive manufacturing designs and simulate the metal additive manufacturing process to reduce product development time. An end-to-end manufacturing solution, Additive Solutions spans across multiple Ansys product offerings.

Ansys Sherlock automated design analysis provides fast and accurate life predictions for electronic hardware at the component, board and system levels in early design stages. Sherlock bypasses the ‘test-fail-fix-repeat’ cycle by empowering designers to accurately model silicon–metal layers, semiconductor packaging, printed circuit boards (PCBs) and assemblies to predict failure risks due to thermal, mechanical and manufacturing stressors–all before prototype.

Ansys VRXPERIENCE Sound is a post-processing tool that enables sounds to be analyzed and optimized with sound quality criteria and listening test. Innovative time-frequency analysis and processing functions are available for isolating and modifying various sound components, and to assess the influence on perception. VRXPERIENCE Sound can also reproduce the 3D sound in-simulator and in-vehicle, including tool to tune Active Sound for ICE or EV.

Simulate the response of materials to short duration severe loading from impact and the high pressure of explosions.

AnsysnCodeDesignLife works with Ansys Mechanical to reliably evaluate fatigue life. Using the results of finite element analysis (FEA) from Ansys Mechanical and Ansys LS-DYNA, it accumulates damage from repetitive loading to determine a product’s predicted life. You can quickly evaluate the effects of different materials and alternative geometries for new designs, and then optimize them for the product’s expected usage — long before the first prototype is built or expensive testing takes place.
