Improve your competitive edge through increased innovation, decreased time to market and reduced design costs, by optimising designs earlier in the product development cycle. In response to demand following our ANSYS workshop, this training, provided by Europe’s number 1 supplier of Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) tools and technologies, will help companies to develop fast, efficient and cost-conscious product development.  

Recommended for anyone who performs finite element analysis (FEA) for ship design or mechanical parts and has little or no ANSYS experience, this three-day course focuses on basic linear, static analyses in any discipline. After completing the course, attendees should be able to operate efficiently within the ANSYS Graphical User Interface (GUI), build two- and three-dimensional models, apply loads and obtain solutions as well as effectively verify and display the results of an analysis.

Course Topics Include:

• FEA and ANSYS
• Getting Started
• ANSYS Basics
• General Analysis Procedure
• Creating the Solid Model
• Creating the Finite Element Model
• Defining Material Properties
• Loading
• Solution
• Structural Analysis
• Thermal Analysis
• Postprocessing
• Short Topics
• ANSYS Native Geometry Creation (Appendix)

Each course section is followed by "hands-on" workshops and exercises.

Places on this course cost £950 for member companies and £1200 for non-member companies. Funding available to North East companies reduces this cost to £475 and £600 respectively. Please contact us for details. (Please note these prices exclude VAT).
