Ansys (Synopsys)
Ansys Mechanical
Ansys Mechanical supports structural, thermal and related finite-element analysis workflows.
On the software discovery list. Connector development and release dates have not been announced.
Workflow ideas
Prepare a structural model
Use the idealised geometry, material assumptions and analysis scope. In the intended Ansys Mechanical preview, prepare a structural model; the visible result is a solver-ready model view with mesh regions and constraints exposed. Review units, connectivity, mesh suitability and model assumptions before accepting or exporting it.
Apply loads and constraints
Start from the selected load cases, contacts and solution controls. In the intended Ansys Mechanical preview, apply loads and constraints; the visible result is a configured analysis state with loads and boundary conditions visible. Review load paths, restraints, convergence controls and applicable codes before accepting or exporting it.
Review stress and deformation
Begin with the completed result set and acceptance quantities. In the intended Ansys Mechanical preview, review stress and deformation; the visible result is plots or tables that connect response values to the model. Review convergence, sensitivity, units and engineering reasonableness before accepting or exporting it.
