- Accessing ANSYS: This tip shows students the three main ways of accessing ANSYS
- Navigating ANSYS Mechanical 2019 R2 Interface: This tip shows some of the changes in the new interface and tips on how to not be confused by the changes.
- Time Dependent Boundary Condition : This tip shows how to specify a time-dependent temperature boundary condition by reading in values from Excel.
- Activate Academic Research License : This tip show shows how to switch from a teaching license to a research license if you have purchased both licenses. The teaching license has a limitation on the maximum number of nodes in your model whereas the research license doesn't put a limit on the maximum number of nodes.
- Set Number of Cores: To set the number of cores in ANSYS Mechanical, go to Tools > Solve Process Settings > Advanced and change Max number of utilized processors. You will need a valid HPC license to use more than 4 cores. To maximize the amount of memory available for a solve, close memory hogs and start-up programs before hitting Solve.
- Fatigue Analysis : Tip This tip shows how to perform fatigue analysis in ANSYS Mechanical.
- Hydrostatic Pressure : This tip demonstrates how to use the Hydrostatic Pressure load to determine the water level.
- Auto Constraints : This tip demonstrates how to turn on Auto Constraints in DesignModeler, which is not turned on by default in ANSYS 15.0.
- Running FLUENT on a Remote Server
- How to Compile UDFs
- How to interpret principal stresses for 2d plane stress cases in ANSYS Mechanical? Why is one principal stress not zero everywhere?
- How to Vary Material Properties along an Object
- Specifying spatially varying loads in ANSYS Mechanical: See this blog post from another site
- Introduction to Command Object Post-processing
- Importing Surfaces from Solidworks into ANSYS: this tip will show you how to import just a surface into DesignModeler using Solidworks
- Using Force Reaction Probes on Contact Surfaces
- Accessing Selection Information window in ANSYS
