Dear friends of the ANSYS forum, I am new on the use of ANSYS, and for instance I am performing basic tutorials such as the next: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9V6lZSyjcs But I have a problem from starting :-(: I have tried to do the next tutorial, but when I try to define the section...

Dear friends from eng-tips, I am performing the analysis of a steel construction of 50 years old. What I know the LRFD coefficients are based on this period of time. I have the next question: if I want to study the structure with new loads from equipements, and the new period of time is 30...

Dear friends, As I comment on the subject,I am evaluatin the structural performance of a steel structure sopported on walls. Due to the complexity of the design, I am using the modal spectral analysis to evaluate the seismic actions. But my question is the next: How can I consider on this type...

Dear friends, I have a problem that I want to solve in ANSYS Mechanical APDL. On a beam section, I want to change the orientation of the local system of the beam. Could you please tell to me how I can do that in ANSYS. Thank you very much. Regards, 3JC

Dear collages, I want to know about any free alternative to open inp and odb archives developed by Abaqus. I've got a client who want to visualizate the models that I perform. Thank you very much. Regards, 3JC

Dear collages, Hello to everybody, this is the first post that I do in this section. I am a FEM analysit, and I have to develop the structural analysis of a semi-trailer. Which specification shall I have to use for the determination of load cases and the matnitud of that loads and/or impossed...

Dear collages of the forum, I've got a question that I can't find how to resolve. What I want to do is to make a 3d representation of a wire section (on other software packages, such as SAP2000, is named as ). I want to represent on the Assembly module the wire like a 3d part. Is this possible...

Dear collages of the forum, As the subject says, I'm interesting into know bibligraphy about how to calculate on steel profiles the elastic-plastic deflection of a beam according to the moment-curvature properties of the section. Thank you very much. Regards, Juan José

Dear collages: I'm performing an analysis of a bolted connection, and I want to know if it is possible to define a criteria of maximum deformation (and then, the analysis stop). For example, about the maximum deformation of the bolt. I send to you in attach a screenshot about results that I...

Dear collages from forum, I'm performing a FEA of a bolted connection, and results (comparing with experimental tests) are stiffer. I send to you in attach to this email the model: could you please give to me some recomendations?

Dear collages of the forum, I write by first time in this section (I usually do it in Abaqus forum). I would be very gratefull if you could recomend to me some paper or book where would be explained the theoric fundamentals of Moment-Curvature relationship on non linear material. My objective...

Dear collages of the forum, I writte to you to request for theoretical background about limite states theory (for example, where value of ponderation coefficients are obtained or about load combinations). Thank you very much. Regards, Juan José

Dear collages from forum, I have a question: is it possible to apply a eccentricity in the application of a puntual load? I send in attach a picture of the problem: it is a portal, and puntual loads have to be applied in the crane runway line. Thank you very much...

Dear collages from forum, I have a question: is it possible to define the uncompatibility of two load, previous to the automatic generation of load combinations by the software? I'm calculating a 2d portal frame, and due to the asimmetry, I have to consider two different wind load directions...

Dear collages, I have one question: how could I know the load applied in each frame of a step? In my case, I have a boundary condition by a triangular displacement simulating a moment in a face (defined by an analytical field). Thank you very much.

Dear collages, Firstly, I want you a happy new year, and I wish this forum would continue as good as the moment. I'm performing a bolted connection calculation, and in the model I have this error: If significant clearance/overclosure exists between surface pair...

Dear collage of the forum, I send to you in attach a model that I'm developing: it is about a bolted moment end plate connection. I have a problem, I can't continue the calculation because in the first step it says that the displacement is too big. I have been changing a lot of parameters, but...

Dear collages, Anybody has information about body cars (on the sense of structural behaviour) and standars to apply? Thank you very much, jj

Dear collages, My name is Juan José Jiménez de Cisneros. I'm spanish and I'm mechanical engineer. I have participated in eng-tips formus for 2-3 years, but in ABAQUS section mainly. Congratulations to everybody. I'm relatively new in SAP2000, and I use it for educational porpose. My problem is...
