Ansys Mechanical Pro Reviews

I'm using ANSYS mechanical package in many applications because of its very professional tools including automation ( paprametric study ) ones which saves lots of time and help me find the best design point.

Also topology study and generative design are great tool for 3D printing applications ,in my oppenion it is incomparable to any other software.

It helped me perform professional simulations as well including multibody dynamics and fluid structure interaction in parallel with ansys fluent.

Adding to this you can easily add new material data properties and flexibily define any type of load.

Also the customer support forum have many experts so you can easily find a solution to your problem or directly contact them.

Further more i didn't face any problem during installation, I really like the user interface as it is well organised to easy define a simulation and get results.

I usually integrate with other 3D design softwares like Solidworks, design modular, claimspace to import and export files.

It consumes lots of computer ram, and sometimes the program run into a problem befor saving the project and in a matter of a second I loss my work، also the subscribtion fees may be modified.

It calculates the stress distribution in material according to the load type and value ,then shows nice visualisations of the stress distribution ,I usually uuse it to know the maximum load this design can stand and alao to check if the deformation is acceptable in the safe region or exceeded

Best user interface, and mindblowing simulation experience. Meshing and post-processing is done very precisely and it is personalized.

The time required is very high for analysis. Process errors are present. CAD errors detection is very difficult.

Analysis and optimization are the most important task to validate your design and I am using ANSYS for the same very confidently.

It has every tool for Analysis of almost all types of material

Should have more function and ability to design complex products in ansys itself.

Ansys mechanical helps in Problems from wide range but in our case its used widely in Structural and thermal problems. It helps as it serves one stop for all our analysis problems

Ansys Mechanical is one of the industry's best finite element method (FEM) software (also sometimes refered to as Computer Aided Engineering (CAE).

The analysis / simulation done in Ansys and the actual results are very close, accurate and comparable.

One has to do meshing in Ansys before running the FEA.

Training is very much required to use this software effectively.

Modeling using Computer Aided Design (CAD) capabilities are less and should be improved.

Ansys Mechanical helps us to solve Engineering problems like Vehicle crash test simulation.

Stress and Strain can be found very quickly.

Complex structural engineering problems can be solved with ease.

You can code in Ansys Programming Design Language, APDL, and it is not so difficult. In academia, mostly it has been used, so it gives very reliable results. İt can solve complicated contact problems that other FEA programs may struggle.

Importing geometry data in step or iges formatı had problems in the Ansys 18.1. Sometimes, an assembly of a few parts cannot be imported as is in Solidworks. Drawing or modifying a geometry is way difficult so complicated geometries such as assemblies should be imported properly and could be modified more easily.

I have solved multiphysical problems in Ansys Mechanical APDL interface. It was very practicle to use APDL in parametric problems only by shifting certain parameter and running the code on a text file by simply copying all code and pasting on ansys comment bar at once.

ANSYS Mechanical is a perfect simulation tool where your experience APDL coding, Workbench, Solvers, ACTs and many more. It has a solid technical database, material library, help and user manuals, and guides. For me, it is a complete package.

There are very few things where you have your dislikes but majorly I can write - Design modular where CAD features are not as strong as 3D CAD commercial software, it doesn't have mathematical expression builder like other software has and somewhere import and export data issues.

I am using ANSYS Mechanical mainly to perform all structural simulations. I did coupled (loosely) analyses as well. I am a regular user of static, modal, harmonic, transient, response spectrum user.

Multi physics problems can be solved accurately

Sometimes meshing is very difficult in Ansys

Multi physics problems can be solved using Ansys mechanical

Ansys mechanical is very organized and helps to create the FEA model very easily. One can just fond everything at one place and don't need to search for the options.

The automated mesh is good feature but manual meshing options should have been there which can improve the accuracy of the solution. The post-producessing is not having good options to handle the files.

I used to solve the structural analysis or pressure vessels analysis with ANSYS and I found it very useful.

The nonlinear simulations are very easy to solve with the ANSYS as compared to others

Ansys mechanical can be used to solve finite element problems in various domains including structural, thermal, and acoustics. It also has non-linear and transient capabilities.

The software consumes a lot of RAM/memory of the PC. It requires basic mechanical engineering knowledge and is not suitable for beginners. It also requires a long time to solve complex problems.

I am solving problems of structural mechanics and heat transfer with Ansys Mechanical. It offers a complete range of analysis tools from geometry to connecting additional physics.

The most important thing in this software is its workbench where you can create as well as test and the most loving feature is importing Solidworks files and after that, we can perform simulation. In this, we can also perform one of the toughest finite element analysis.

The only I don't like is its mesh creation tools and again if the file size is too large it takes a lot of time this is one of the major issues for me but it's okay because if the file is bigger then it takes time and every software does in my knowledge Ansys is best of all of the existing ones.

I strongly recommend it for those who are performing simulation and analysis.

I perform simulations, stress determination, strain analysis, Heat flow analysis and many more. Its mesh creation tool is providing us a detailed analysis of the products and when we need more accurate and precise analysis we go for Ansys.
