Introduction of Ansys
Background of ANSYS:
Ansys has been founded in 1970 and incorporated in 1994. Ansys predominantly
offers engineering simulation software and ancillary services. The solutions
provided by the company are used in a wide range of industries including
aerospace, defense, automotive, biomedical and other industrial sectors.
Leveraging the power of today's Desktop, Ansys provides a common platform for
product development, from design concept to final-stage testing and validation.
The company's product portfolio consists of simulation platform offerings that are
used in diverse multi-physics fields like heat transfer, fluid mechanics, statics,
solid mechanics, etc. However, Ansys is best known for finite element analysis
(FEA), which has gained popularity as a modelling and simulation tool over the
years (and especially since the introduction of powerful computers) in solving a
gamut of complex engineering problems
Ansys Software:
The Ansys pre-processor allows users to build geometry, define materials and
generate element mesh. The Ansys processor allows users to solve problems by
applying loads and obtaining solutions. The Ansys post-processor allows
visualization and listing of results in a tabular form or as printouts.
Ansys Tools:
3D Design:
Rapidly explore ideas, iterate and innovate with Ansys Discovery 3D design
software. With the easy-to-use tools, you can build and optimize lighter and
smarter products.
Electronics:
Ansys software can uniquely simulate electromagnetic performance across
component, circuit and system design, and can evaluate temperature, vibration and
other critical mechanical effects.
Embedded Software:
Ansys provides a model-based embedded software development and simulation
environment with a built-in automatic code generator to accelerate embedded
software development projects.
Fluids:
Ansys CFD goes beyond qualitative results to deliver accurate quantitative
predictions of fluid interactions and trade-offs.
Materials:
Ansys software ensures accurate, consistent, traceable materials information every
time and provides the tools you need to support design, research and teaching.
Optical:
Ansys optical simulation software uniquely simulates a system’s optical
performance and evaluates the final illumination effect.
Structures:
With the finite element analysis (FEA) solvers available in the suite, you can
customize and automate solutions for your structural mechanics problems and
parameterize them to analyze multiple design scenarios.
