This 3-day training course introduces the basics of using ANSYS Workbench Mechanical for structural and thermal analysis. The course covers geometry import, meshing, applying loads and supports, and post-processing for linear static, modal, harmonic, and nonlinear steady-state analyses. Engineering knowledge is required, and familiarity with finite element theory and computers is useful. The syllabus includes ANSYS Workbench and Mechanical overviews, preprocessing, static structural analysis, vibration analysis, thermal analysis, buckling analysis, and results post-processing with hands-on workshops and exercises.

TRAINING COURSES
COURSE NAME : ANSYS Workbench Mechanical – Introduction
DURATION : 3 x 8hrs sessions
* Creditable for QUT Master program and Continuing Development (CPD) courses offered by the Professional
Engineers Board (PEB) Singapore.
OBJECTIVES
This training course covers the basics of using ANSYS Mechanical in performing structural and thermal
analyses. It aims to provide a general understanding of the user interface, as related to geometry import,
meshing, application of loads and supports, and post-processing. The procedure for performing finite
element analysis (FEA) simulations, including linear static, modal, and harmonic structural analyses and
nonlinear steady-state thermal analyses will also be covered. Trainees will be taught to utilize parameters
for ‘what-if’ scenarios and to interface with the ANSYS solver for more advanced functionality as well.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND
This training course is intended for all new or occasional ANSYS Mechanical users, regardless of the CAD
software used.
PRE-REQUISITES
Engineering knowledge is required. Familiarity with computer (PC or workstation) and knowledge of finite
element theory is useful.
