Modelling considerationsbull As you begin your model generation you will (consciously or
unconsciously) make a number of decisions that determine how youwill mathematically simulate the physical system ndash What are the objectives of your analysis ndash Will you model all or just a portion of the physical system ndash How much detail will you include in your model ndash What kinds of elements will you use How dense should your finite
element mesh bebull In general you will attempt to balance computational expense (CPU
time etc) against precision of results as you answer thesequestions
bull The decisions you make in the planning stage of your analysis willlargely govern the success or failure of your analysis efforts

Modelling considerationsbull Linear or Higher Order Elementsbull Take Advantage of Symmetry
ndash The axis of symmetry must coincide with the global Cartesian Y-axis ndash Negative nodal X-coordinates are not permitted ndash The global Cartesian Y-direction represents the axial direction the
global Cartesian X-direction represents the radial direction and theglobal Cartesian Z-direction corresponds to the circumferential direction
ndash Your model should be assembled using appropriate element typesbull For axisymmetric models use applicable 2-D solids with KEYOPT(3) = 1
andor axisymmetric shells In addition various link contact combinationand surface elements can be included in a model that also containsaxisymmetric solids or shells (The program will not realize that these otherelements are axisymmetric unless axisymmetric solids or shells are present)
bull How Much Detail to Includebull Appropriate Mesh Density
