Geometry

For this problem, we will import the geometry into ANSYS AIM.  The geometry was created using ANSYS DesignModeler.

The video below shows the steps necessary to import and prepare the geometry.

Summary of steps in above video:

• Open AIM 17.1 and choose the Structural template
• Leave default settings, and import Solid Signpost Geometry
• Open Geometry, and specify the thickness of the application surface to be 0.001m

Go to Step 3: Mesh

Go to all ANSYS AIM Learning Modules
