New To Ansys 11.0
(OP)
Hello, This may seem like a simple question, but i am new to using ansys workbench. I am trying to perform modal analysis on a simply supported beam, but i have no idea where to define the element type (as in beam3 etc...). I know how to perform the modal analysis, but i just cannot for the life of me find out how to select which element type ansys uses to solve the problem... Any advice would help a lot
Thanks
Thanks

I don't know how to manually specify the element in Workbench, but if you can it will be described in the help files.
RE: New To Ansys 11.0
Using command snippets, you can assign the element types as well as identify the element type used for the analysis.
It may be like,
/prep7
*get,parameter,etype,,num,max...
finish
/solu
Also check it in the ansys help
