Taking a Look at ANSYS

The initial examples of use of force continuum were developed in the 1980s and early

BiDil is a medication used to treat heart failure in African Americans. With its approval by the FDA in 2005, the drug was sought out to be a significant step towards personalized medication. With personalized medicine, we could begin to see reduced prices as well as healthier individuals. The real question is… What type of medicine is in BiDil that targets ONLY African Americans? Could this be a marketing scheme?... Or are African Americans that much different than any other ethnic group?

Use of the split body function can be used to cut a large object into parts to accommodate for the application of smaller elements. However, if FEA is conducted on large bodies this function does not necessarily reduce the time taken to run the simulation, and chance of error occurring still remains high. This was the case with the simulations containing cracks in the ‘to-scale’

In today's world of engineering, for the overall design and development process, a software must have the ability to adapt to a variety of CAD and PLM solutions. The software must have the ability to be customized to provide for the inter-operability with other software’s. These are the characteristics provided in the Ansys simulation architecture, making it feasible to be used under any

The loads applied in the lab were applied to the truss at the location indicated by the red arrow. Afterwards, the following data sets were recorded from the ANSYS model:

Academic misconduct is conduct in violation of the conduct code, and/or other unethical conduct. I will report to the COE Academic Conduct Committee any action that I believe constitutes misconduct.

Evolution and innovation are two of the most important factors in the development of aerospace design. When faced with a design problem the decision has to be made whether to develop the current idea, or whether to explore a new idea. The decision chosen will usually be a mixture of both.

Knowing that the professor, Mr. Paul Davids, was a tough teacher, I asked him for the textbook so I could study and get ready for the class over the summer. Just arrived from Belize, I was determined to succeed. In class we learned about forces on simple members and then we put the members together to form a simple truss. At this point I had almost decided that structural engineering was the career for

Aircraft wing model as per the plan should be made in FEA and the model is subjected to various loading. The loading given by the self-weight or due to acceleration due to gravity was discussed and the deflection over here should be calculated. The wing model is severely affected by the loads on along wing direction, across wing direction, vertical direction.NACA 2412 airfoil was taken for designing wing. FLUENT was used for computational fluid dynamic analysis to determine the lift and drag for wing during zero degreed flaps and angled

Today, there is an almost understood association with computational tools along with the measurable parameters and thresholds. The massive power of computation makes it superlative for repeating calculations, it could be useful in optimization algorithms for instance, and the target parameters for the optimization have to be simple enough to be expressed in a computer algorithm. In the application of structural engineering, these quantifiable and measurable parameters could be mass, force, moment, deflection or even cost.

However, the team uses finite element analysis software along with DOE to predict two responses from each run such as the stress and the deformation. In the case study, we observe the images that show the stress and deformation due to a temperature change. The high stress and deformation areas are shown by the red color. The low stress and deformation areas are indicated by the dark blue color. At last the deformation of a single layer was imported into MATLAB (a matrix computing environment) to calculate the radius of curvature or warp.

This report is an investigation into the evolution and mechanical functionality of aeronautical propulsion systems, from the early attempts at propulsion to modern propulsion system such as propeller, internal combustion engine, ramjet engine and gas turbine. As this report will focus of aeronautical propulsion systems, rocket propulsion systems are almost exclusively involved in astronautics and will not be discussed.

In today’s engineering world, the cost is becoming one of the most important factors when it comes to the design of mechanical systems, such as bridges, aircraft, buildings, motor vehicles etc. When designing the system, there are three distinguished methods to lower cost: reduce the initial cost of building the product, lower the operating cost or increasing the longevity of the system, meaning the expense of buying a replacement system will be less frequent. The first of these, reducing initial cost, is shied away from for large-scale systems as is usually achieved by using cheaper

This project was carried out at the Faculty of Engineering and Research, Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. I was guided by the CAD/CAM laboratory faculty at the University for this Project. The organization structure of the project is as follows:

COMSOL Multiphysics is one of the few general-purpose software platform which provides profusion accuracy, because of its advanced numerical methods, for simulation and modelling of physics-based problems. It is a simulation platform with devoted to solving of physics based interfaces and it also provides tools for mechanical, electrical, chemical and fluid flow applications. Supplementary interfacing products tie to COMSOL Multiphysics simulations with technical computing, CAD, and ECAD software.
