Finite Element Analysis
More and more engineers in Australian and New Zealand companies are performing computer simulations as part of their design process. These simulations are aimed at determining how their product designs will perform in the real world. The most commonly used form of simulation for mechanical engineers is a structural and/or thermal finite element analysis (FEA). FEA software is also one of the most mature technologies in the area of simulation.

Linear Dynamics
Ansys Mechanical covers all your needs for linear dynamic analysis, including modal, harmonic, spectrum response and random vibration with pre-stress, along with advanced solver options for rapid solutions.
Nonlinearities
Moving beyond linear, elastic materials, you can simulate the behavior of materials as they undergo plastic or even hyperelastic deformation (materials like rubber and neoprene).
Contact
Ansys Mechanical includes a comprehensive range of contact capabilities that enable you to account for the interactions of multiple parts.
Structural Optimisation
Ansys Mechanical includes parametric, shape (mesh morphing) and topology optimisation. Any model in Ansys Mechanical can be used to drive a parametric optimisation.
Thermal Analysis
Simulating heat conduction, convection and radiation across assemblies enables you to predict the temperature of components, which can then be used to examine induced stresses and deformations.
Materials
A range of material models covering everything from hyperelastics, shape-memory alloys, soils, concrete, plastic and metallic structures can be accurately modeled in Mechanical.
Composites
Ansys Mechanical includes capabilities to model short fiber composites taking data from upstream manufacturing simulation tools.
Hydrodynamics (Ansys Aqwa)
Ansys addresses the vast majority of analysis requirements associated with hydrodynamic assessment of all types of offshore and marine structures.
Fluid-Structure Interaction
Accurately predict interactions between fluids and solids from pressure and/or thermal loads. As the fluid-structure interaction increases and the problem needs more detailed evaluation, Ansys has automated, easy-to use-solutions for both one-way and two-way coupling.
Customisation and Scripting
The fastest, easiest way to tailor your simulation workflows. Customization inside Ansys Mechanical enables repetitive tasks or specific workflows to automate and shared amongst users.
