elongated, if solidification occurs before the polymer molecules are fully relaxed, molecular orientation is locked within the molded part

What is ACT?
> The Application Customization Toolkit is a full-featured scripting interface to customize Applications in Workbench– In ANSYS R14, ACT allows customization in the Mechanical
application (Beta)
• Define customized boundary conditions and post-processing
• Replace command snippets with interactive objects
• Do much more than what the standard features in Mechanical offer
– Access node/element information, material, solution, results data……
• Even replace the APDL solver with your customer solver
> ACT provides an option to migrate APDL users to Mechanical– Allow reusing legacy APDL developments in user-friendly way
– Gets the best of the two worlds
39
> Moldex3D extension toolbar and Moldex3D button arenow part of ANSYS Mechanical user interface– Moldex3D function is
available from the drop-downmenu to set analysis properties
– When solution done, users can open the post to view theresult
