Welcome back to CADable. This is Engr. Ibrahim Omer. In this tutorial, we will learn how to simulate a bar with a hole in the center using Ansys Workbench. The objective is to perform a static structural analysis. Let's go through the steps involved in this process. Step 1: Select Analysis Type We begin by selecting the analysis type, which in this case is static structural. Ansys Workbench provides various analysis types to suit different engineering problems. Step 2: Define Engineering Data Next, we need to define the engineering data for our simulation. We will apply structural steel as the material for the bar. Ansys Workbench offers a material library, but we will also cover how to select a different material if needed. Step 3: Create Geometry In this tutorial, we will use Ansys Design Modeler to create the geometry of the bar. However, you can also import geometry from other CAD software such as Solidworks, Catia, or Fusion 360 into Ansys Workbench. Step 4: Meshing After creating the geometry, we move on to meshing or discretizing the model. We will use a default mesh size of 0.5 inches. Additionally, we will cover how to create a custom mesh if desired. Step 5: Apply Boundary Conditions Now it's time to apply the boundary conditions. We will fix one face of the bar to represent a fixed support and apply a load of 200lbf in the positive x-direction on the opposing face. The boundary conditions define the constraints and loads on the structure. Step 6: Solve and Evaluate Results Once the boundary conditions are applied, we solve the problem to obtain the deformation, equivalent stress, maximum principal strain, and reaction forces. We will also evaluate the results, such as animating the deformation and examining the stress, strain, and reaction forces. Ansys multiplies the deformation by a certain factor for visualization purposes, but we will view the 1:1 deformation. Step 7: Analyze Results During the analysis, we will observe that the force in the x-direction matches the applied force. We might encounter small forces in the y and z-directions, but these can be disregarded as numerical errors. We will also examine the maximum and minimum stress values and use the probe command to determine stresses at various locations in the structure.

Welcome back to CADable. I am Engr. Ibrahim Omer, and in this tutorial, we will undertake an interesting exercise that involves comparing analytical results obtained through Finite Element Analysis (FEA) with numerical results from Ansys. We will be working on the third chapter and third question of the popular book "FEA" by Saeed Moaveni. Throughout this tutorial, we will be focusing on a truss problem and comparing the results obtained from Ansys with the FEA solutions provided by Saeed Moaveni. This comparison will help us gain a better understanding and intuition regarding the accuracy of numerical FEA methods by contrasting them with analytical solutions. We will cover the following content in this tutorial: 1) Truss Definition: We will start by explaining what a truss structure is and its fundamental characteristics. 2) Truss Assumptions: We will discuss the qualifying assumptions made for analyzing a truss structure. 3) Truss Examples: On the basis of strength and design, we will explore different types of trusses, accompanied by real-life examples for better comprehension. 4) Ansys Solution: We will proceed to solve the truss problem in Ansys using the data provided in the question. This analysis will be explained in detail, with each step being thoroughly defined. I have also explained how to take one mesh per element. 5) Results Comparison: The results obtained from Ansys will be compared with the analytical solutions by Saeed Moaveni. We will focus on comparing: a) Directional Deformation b) Force Reactions c) Direct Stress d) Axial Forces 6) Error Estimation: An important aspect of the comparison will involve error estimation between the numerical and analytical results. We will calculate the error percentage, which is expected to be less than 0.01%. Throughout the tutorial, we will adopt a beginner-friendly approach, making it a valuable practice for those new to FEA. We encourage active participation and welcome any questions or queries in the comment section. I will be readily available to answer and clarify doubts. Remember, practice is key to mastery, so keep practicing as it leads to perfection. Please utilize the play-pause technique to make the most out of the tutorial.
