Introduction – Remote LoadingIntroduction – Remote Loading
• The ANSYS Workbench represents more than a general purpose engineering tool.
– It provides a highly integrated engineering simulation platform.
– Supports multiple multi-physics engineering solutions.
– Provides bi-directional parametric associativity with most available CAD systems.
• This exercise is designed to introduce you to the use of “Remote Loads and Masses” and “Combined Results” in the ANSYS Workbench

PurposePurpose
• This tutorial is incremental in nature
• It is designed to introduce you to:
– The nature and design of the ANSYS Workbench User Interface
– The concepts of ANSYS Workbench Projects and Applets
– The integrated nature of ANSYS Workbench technology
– The power of the ANSYS Workbench in using applied parametric modeling and simulation techniques to provide quality engineering solutions

Using “Mass Points”Using “Mass Points”
• The methods taught in this tutorial apply equally well to both attached CAD and DesignModeler files.
• For the purposes of this tutorial we will be
using the DesignModeler file produced in Exercise 3 of this tutorial.
• When using attached CAD systems “Mass Points” can be attached to tagged entities import from from your CAD models.

Using “Remote Loads”Using “Remote Loads”
• Remote loads can be attached to remote Mass Points and then be applied to active CAD or DesignModeler geometry.
• These Mass Points and Remote loads can
then be used in various combinations to solve an overall simulation.

Working with CAD systemsWorking with CAD systems
• Remember:
– Remote loads or Mass Points can be imported from CAD models
– Imprinting can be used on imported CAD models to supporting localized patch loading without modifying the original CAD models
– Remote loads can be transferred to active geometry
