    Assigning element type in ANSYS Workbench

    Thank you very much for the reply. I opened command window in engineering data file. Then I wrote ET,1,BEAM189 command but when I enter it the following error message is appearing. UnboundNameException: name 'ET' is not defined I am new to ANSYS workbench so I have confused. Should I introduce...

    Mass normalized mode shape

    Hi All, I want to get mass normalized mode shape of the 3D 10 storey framed structure in ANSYS. I did modal analysing using lumped mass approximation. Then how can I get the mode shape for the building as I want to find Hpq in equation 4 (in the attachment)? Thank you very much.

    BEAM189

    Hi all, In ANSYS BEAM189 element (element shape is rectangular) can be divided in to 4 parts in XZ plane. This number cannot be changed. But Length of elements along y direction can be changed. Is number of divisions fixed in XZ plane? Thank you very much.

    How to model a large building in ANSYS

    Hi all, I want to model 10 storey concrete frame building in ANSYS. This is the first time I am trying to model such a big FEM. I have attached a code which I have written in notepad. But I do not have idea how to define a huge number of elements with this method. Is there any easy method to...

    SOLID65

    Hi all, I use SOLID65 element to model reinforced concrete structure. I have a problem to select material number in element attributes window. I entered two materials MAT 1 for concrete and MAT 2 for rebar 1. Then what should I select for this case. If I select MAT 1 will it ignore rebar 1 for...
