Shock analysis with ANSYS

[pedrox]

Does anybody know how to develop a shock analysis with ansys? tutorial or examples?

I have tried with ansys workbench but I think it can´t be done. Transients are only for temperatures.

What I want to simulate is a 10g 11ms sine impulse in the supports.

Thanks in advance,
Pedro.

Hi,
you could use ANSYS classical with a full-transient analysis and loads defined by equation. The analysis TIME would be greater than the duration of the impulse (i.e. the impulse would be a two-regimes expression in function of TIME).
Somewhere in the ANSYS forum there is a topic like that and I remember there was an answer by Drej. Try having a look...

I have tried to enter an equation with two regimes and later to include a constant gravitatory load, but it didn´t work. May be I was wrong entering the equation. I have suceed in entering a new force-table, but I don´t know how to insert a multy-regime equation properly mixed with gravitatory loads.

thanks for the reference of the ansys forum I will have a look.
