Start-Up

We will fill in the missing information by performing an axisymmetric analysis using ANSYS. We will then compare the numerical results from ANSYS to the analytical results.  

...

Launch ANSYS Workbench and start a "Static Structural" analysis in the project page as shown in the video below.
