Stump the WBE Wizard



2

Rich Alferi, Respironics:Since I have been using WB for a while, I think I have had most of my questions answered through tech support and training classes (Yes we actually go to training classes!).

How do you become an AWE Wizard?



3

WBE Training

- DesignModeler- Create and modify geometry in preparation for analysis - Navigate within the Graphical User Interface - Generate 2D sketches and convert them into 2D or 3D models - Modify 2D and 3D geometry- Import existing CAD geometry- Create line bodies and their cross sections in preparation for beam analysis- Create surface bodies in preparation for shell analysis- Model assemblies/Multi-body Parts- Utilize parameters



4

WBE Training

- ANSYS Workbench - Simulation Introduction- Simulation Basics- General Preprocessing- Static Structural Analysis- Free Vibration Analysis- Thermal Analysis- Linear Buckling Analysis- Results Postprocessing- CAD & DesignXplorer Parameter Manager- Harmonic Analysis- Asynchronous Solution- Fatigue Module- Shape Finder



5

WBE Training

- ANSYS Workbench - Simulation Introduction- Nonlinear Structural- Advanced Contact- Metal Plasticity- Hyperelasticity- Nonlinear Diagnostics- Accessing ANSYS Options



6

Simulation How To/Wish List

• Can submodeling be done in Workbench?

• When will WBE have transient thermal stress analysis with multifield elements in coupled field solution (something like machining or grinding; where heat can be generated due to material deformation)?

• Structural transient analysis



7


How to view the force convergence graph from the solution information tab?



8


Saving unconverged solutions, i.e. Load Case 99999.



9


How to perform thermal stress analysis after a transient thermal solution?



10


The details view and graphics legend include the “display time”

Timeline and tabular data are available for each result time solved for Check boxes control timeline

display



11


• Can we take control of the contour legend format and select a decimal format instead of scientific notation, i.e., make the stress contour legend NOT be reported as x10^4? (Wow, my stress is only 5.2 psi. Oh wait, it's 520,000. No, it's 52,000.)



12


•Is there a way to produce a higher quality .jpg?



13


Cyclic Symmetry



14


• How about the use of rigid targets with pilot nodes in workbench?



15


• How to perform some of the classical time-history post processing?



16


The average stress across a section of a solid model?

In AWE 10 you can use export probe data to excel to find the average stress for a body, surface or edge.



17


•Thermal Radiation



18

Simulation How To/Wish ListResponse Spectrum Analyses



19


• Can an analysis in Workbench be solved in batch mode?

DesignModeler How To/Wish List

• I'm trying to add fillets to sharp corners inside a hollow 3D model. How can I do a capped, hidden plot to see the geometry?
