Bolted joints are commonly used to assemble mechanical structures. Modelling bolts for three-dimensional finite element applications has always been a tricky proposition because the details… Read More »An Overview of Methods for Modelling Bolts in ANSYS
When it comes to discussing non-linear capabilities, non-convergence error messages are the most common stumbling block. A non-linearity, in other terms, a change in the… Read More »Non-linear FEA: Contact Stabilisation
ANSYS Meshing has developed rapidly within the last five years; Body by Body meshing was introduced in 2011 with the emergence of R13, followed a… Read More »Meshing Improvements with ANSYS 15
Fatigue is failure under repeated or otherwise varying load which never reaches a level sufficient to cause failure in a single application. Component seems to… Read More »What is Fatigue?
