Hello
I am interested in an harmonic analysis (frequency response) of a structure made of a mass connected to a frame. The mass can be modeled as a point mass, connected with rigid constrains (or distributed coupling) to the frame, which is modeled by shell elements.
I want to apply a velocity...
Hello
I am not so used to working in the time domain, hence this question.
What is the difference between doing a transient structural analysis and a static analysis with time steps, where the external load is indeed applied in different time steps?
I have seen the following situation. A...
Hello
I have an FE model (linear elastic material, homogeneous) using shell181 elements. The structure is subject to constant acceleration and undergoes a static analysis (antype,static).
About shell,mid and keyopt(8), Ansys manual reports:
KEYOPT(8) = 2 stores midsurface results in the results...
