    ANSYS workbench display colour of geometry in Mechanical

    Hi, I am using ANSYS workbench 14.5. I finished my analysis, and now I need to write my report, I want a picture of the meshing, as shown in the picture attached. However, I don't want it to show different colour for different geometry. How can I change it to one colour?? or geometry with same...

    How to get internal force inside 3D model

    Thanks for your reply. I tried this method before I post my question. However, this calculate forces at the nodes of the element caused by the stress in the element, but I would like to get the effective total force acting on that surface. For example, I create a 100*100*100 cube, then I...

    How to get internal force inside 3D model

    Hi, I am modeling a steel composite frame in 3D as shown in the picture, on the top left is the pin support and on the right is the roller support, uniform distributed load on the mid beam, after solving the model, I would like to know the axial compression or tension force on the beam. How...

    Restart analysis error: unknown instance name

    If I apply all the load in one step, it won't converge, even with very small increment, I thought it maybe because the contact isn't working at the first place, so I try to apply additional boundary condition for the contact to work first, I got the idea from the internet, is this right??

    Restart analysis error: unknown instance name

    Hi there, I am trying to run a 3D model, it contains contact, so I decide to run the model with very small load and additional boundary condition in order for the contact to work first, then try to restart the analysis with the real load and deactivate the additional boundary condition. I...
