ANSYS finite element analysis enable engineers to:
- Build computer models or transfer CAD models of structures, products, components, or systems.
- Apply operatingloads or other design performance conditions.
- Study the physical responses, such as stress levels, temperature distributions, or the impact of electromagnetic fields.
- Optimize a design early in the development process to reduce production costs.
- Do prototype testing in enviroments where it otherwise would be undesireable or impossible
(for example, biomedical applications).
The ANSYS program has a comprehensive graphical user intreface that gives users easy, interactive access
to program functions, commands, documentation, and reference material.
An intuitive menu system helps users navigate through the ANSYS program. Users can input data using a
mouse, a keyboard, or a combination of both.
To run ANSYS type ansys at the unix prompt, this requires an X-Windows session.
