Hello,
I want to obtain analytical solution to a beam loaded with simple bending at midspan. There is an equation, but it´s only valid for points located on the simetry line. I want to calculate deflection along the left edge. I know there is a displacement method that uses the stiffness...
Hello,
I´m running MATLAB optimization toolbox, and i´m using fmincon function for contrained non-linear minimization. I can run the code with no problems, but it only runs one iteration, and after it stop, saying this message...
Hello,
I have selected all nodes with z coordinate equal to -0.2:
A=NSEL,S,LOC,Z,-0.2
I want to save the node numbers on a array, and then calculate the maximum Z displacement on the group of nodes.
Any help appreciated,

Hello,
I want to know the name of the maximum z Displacement in APDL commands, and the total reaction force in the z direction, i.e, the sum of every reaction forces for the selected nodes. I know the displacement is UZ, but what about the maximum nodal displacement for the selected nodes? Is...
Hello,
i´m doing a non-linear analysis, and I have hundreds of substeps. I can only list results for one substep at once. I want to choose for instance z displacement and list it for every substep at once. How can I list results for all substeps at once?
Thanks,

I´m doing a Non-linear analysis in ANSYS mechanical and ANSYS workbench. Can you please tell me my default what are the units of displacement and Force reaction? I think displacement is in m and Force reaction is in N, but i´m not sure.
Thanks,

Hello
I´m doing a non-linear analysis, and I have obtained a Force-Displacement curve. Can anyone point a book where there is a detailed explanation about the physical meaning of the load-displacement curve?
thanks and regards,

Hello,
I am doing a non-linear structural analysis on ANSYS. Solution is found after 10 substeps. I have only one load step. The problem is that I need to list results for all substeps and I can only access results from the LAST substep. When I change substep, it says: "load set not found on...
Hello,
I´m using ANSYS mechanical 13, and I want to know how can I select all nodes on an area. I need to do this in order to plot results only for the nodes in that area, finding the maximum value.
Can anyone help?

Hello,
Can you please tell me what SOLID element types can be used to mesh areas with triangles on ANSYS. A reference is also appreciated.

Hello,
I am doing a Non-linear solving on a metallic foam on ANSYS, but I am having problems with volume meshing. many elements have shape warning limits when meshing, and when solving, after the 3rd iteration, ANSYS always give an error message saying the elements are highly distorted. I am...
Hello,
I´m running ANSYS 13 mechanical on MATLAB. I´m trying to run optimization on an ANSYS input file. Can you tell me what is the command to run ANSYS 13 mechanical on MATLAB?
I know I should use the dos command, but I don´t know the correct syntax.

Hugo
Hello,
I´m running ANSYS input files. I want to know the ANSYS 13 APDL (mechanical) commands for getting the mass from the model and writing it to an external .txt file. If mass is not possible, I want to get and write the volume.

Hugo
Hello,
I´m using ANSYS 13 and I need to run optimization with an external program. Can you please tell me where the batch file is located on ANSYS 13 mechanical and what is its name?

Hello,
I´m doing a simulation on Solidworks, and I want to plot results for the cross-section midplane.
I choose section clipping, but I can´t change the front plane as the reference. I want the right plane as a reference and then plot section located on the midplane. How can I change the...
hello,
I want to plot stress results on ANSYS not for the entire model, but for a slice. How can I do that? I have already done the slice but when I plot results, the results that appear are the same than for the entire model.

Hello,
I´m performing a stress analysis on ANSYS, and I want to create an inner section on the midplane , so I can plot stress results on the midplane to see stress distribution on the inner side.
I´m using ANSYS mechanical 13.
Regards,
Hugo
Hello,
When I see the stress results on ANSYS, I want to:
1-See an inner plane (make a cut of the model)
2-See results only for a selected plane.
Can you please tell me how I do that?
regards,
Hugo

Hello,
I wish to thank to wwwJKPhu for the contribute he gave to this community and mainly to myself on the post i´m referencing. I was looking for a way to apply shear on a surface (load parallel to an area), and your reply was pretty useful. Thanks a lot and have a nice 2012
Hello,
I have build a solid in inventor. I want to optimize the model in ANSYS, so I need the ANSYS code of the geometry. If I import a file into ANSYS (i´m importing .SAT and x_t parasolid) the geometry code does not show.
Do you know how can I save a part in inventor with ANSYS code, or...
