FAQs
The uses of ANSYS are numerous in number, but finally, all of them lead to one single concept called profitability to the organization. In some cases you need to conduct a few tests to optimize the material required, the design, the loads if any acting on the product, the natural frequency or its temperature controlling mechanism, and many more.
Before starting to learn ANSYS, you need to have a deep understanding of the Mechanics of materials, the design of machine elements, various theories of failures. You need to understand the equations that are used in calculating the stress and strain in combined loading and in different cross-sections.
ANSYS in itself is a huge software covering many disciplines like CFD, Structural, Vibration to name a few. Know the science behind the software. Every component of the software is nothing but a numerical algorithm that solves a system of equations. Now your motive as a Mechanical Engineer should be to understand how these systems of equations are formed.
ANSYS software application is developed by ANSYS Inc. It is a finite element based program that helps in analyzing mechanical problems. There are a lot of modules in ANSYS - Multiphysics, Mechanical, etc. The licensing cost will depend upon the modules that you are choosing. Licensing will be different for Academic usage and commercial usage. Larger problems cannot be solved with a license taken for academic purposes. Analysis options will vary with the modules chosen.
Ansys has many scopes. It is used everywhere nowadays. From pumps to hydraulic machines. From home analysis to the building. In each and every sector you can find the direct application of ANSYS. The main scopes are in heavy construction companies, space stations, automobiles, biomechanics. These are only a few, the list is quite long.
Ansys has Lot of scopes even now from a point of design view. As a mechanical engineer If u r really interested in Designing and innovative concepts, u should be trained in Ansys as modelling software like Catia Creo just give the very brief type of analysis.
Specifically, Ansys is used for analysis and hyper mesh for FE modelling. If one wishes to do the analysis in hypermesh, that can also be done by using certain tool solvers like OptiStruct. The environment Ansys offer is real and it’s user friendly. All the options have some description as a comment.
