Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics with ANSYS APDL

ANSYS Parametric Design Language (APDL) is a powerful structured scripting language used to interact with the ANSYS Mechanical solver. Mechanical APDL (MAPDL), a finite element analysis program, is driven by APDL. APDL and MAPDL can be used for many tasks, ranging...

Submodeling Technique from Beam to Shell

Submodeling, as the name suggests, is the modeling of a portion of a global model to capture the effects of refined mesh in a smaller model. This is done to avoid having the whole assembly meshed with fine elements. ANSYS Mechanical...

Structural Optimization Analysis

How to get clean CAD Geometries and Optimized Design CheckingThe new topologies that are obtained in a topology optimization simulation cannot be used directly. They must be transformed in CAD geometries. We present below how to reverse engineering the optimized component...

Spreading inductance in wide cavities

Introduction In this article I direct my attention toward the study of inductance. The reason why this measure is important to be studied is the same as previously mentioned with regard to capacitance, which I have in depth investigated in a...
