    Convergence Tolerance

    Hi everyone, I want to ask a question about convergence tolerance. As much as I know, the program determines the convergence when force approaches to the predicted value as close as %0.5 and displacement %5. I also heard something but im not sure yet, which is that, Ansys determines a factor...

    Target Contact Element

    Hi everyone, I was trying to do an analysis and i defined a contact couple as "rigid contact with pilot node". As long as i know the purpose of this option is to determine a rigid contact element and that you will use it moving, for you also define a pilot node whose movement gives the rigid...

    How to Remove a Part from a 3D Solid Drawing?

    Hi, This looks like a very easy question but I am really new at using SolidWorks and any help will be appriciated. Assume that we have a 3D solid drawing. How can we remove a part of it through a surface? I mean, if I want to remove from z=2 surface, what should I do? Regards, Can

    Eccentric Errors at Axis While Experting Parasolid for Ansys

    Hi, I have a problem with the drawing that i do in SolidWorks. I am kinda new at it so I am a bit confused. I want to draw one quarter of a solid sphere. Actually, its not a sphere but we can consider it as a sphere. I drew quarter of a circle and two lines starting at the end points of quarter...

    How to generate a Sphere?

    Hello everyone, I want to ask a simple procedure question for i hope the answer of this question will lead me to generate my own special shape that i want to draw in SolidWorks. My question is simple and hope the answer is as well: How can I draw a 3D AND full of material (not just shell, not...

    Structural Problem When Importing Parasolid File Format

    Hi, I have a structure drawn in SolidWorks and exported as parasolid format (*.x_t). Then, I wanted to use this structure in Ansys but when I tried to import it to Ansys, I just saw the contour of the drawing. I mean, for instance i drew a sphere in Solidworks and exported it, but when i import...

    Defining Multi load-steps

    Hi all, I asked this question before but i could not succeeded to define different load steps. Whenever i do the first load step run, then i define a second load, for instance, then i arrange the "time at the end of load step" in the "solution controls" menu to the desired value and then i run...

    Adding Viscoelastac Effects (Prony Series)

    Hi guys, I have met a problem and could not think of anything. If anyone can help to show where i have done a mistake i will appreciate. I have a very simple model in Ansys. It is a cube shape element. I give a displacement on a node and constrained the opposite site no movement (0 DOF). I...

    Dynamic Analysis at Constant Frequency

    Hi guys, I have some questions about dynamic analysis in Ansys. Im kinda new at this program so every help is so precious for me. Well, for a project, i prepared a 3d structure and applied static displacement. Now i need to apply the same displacement as a sinusoidal function for 5 secs at...
