  1. Chapter 2Workbench v9.0

  2. Overview • Engineering Data • Simulation • DesignModeler • Workbench SDK

  3. Engineering Data

  4. Engineering Data • A place for engineering data that can be accessed by all Workbench modules • Materials and Convections at 9.0 • Future • Beam/Shell section libraries, functions for loads, spectra etc. in future • Expansion to temperature dependent properties as well as various nonlinear material models

  5. Engineering Data Workbench Module Container for project materials and convections Thumbnails of properties curves, click to enter, click toolbar button to close Individual properties grouped by physics

  6. Engineering Data Accessible from simulation toolbar or details of part body Options for new, import, and edit

  7. Engineering Data • Network Material Data Support • Materials Can Be Imported From: • Default Material Types • User Defined Data Sources • Central Network Sources

  8. Engineering Data • New Properties Can be Added to Materials • Tabular • Constants

  9. Integration to Commercial Data Suppliers • Matereality serves ANSYS-ready inputs • Kinematic Hardening (BKIN, MKIN/KINH) • Isotropic Hardening (BISO, MISO) • Viscoelastic (EVISC) • Creep (CREEP) • Hyperelastic (HYPER) • More… • MATML (ANSYS v.9) • ANSYS input deck • CSV, Excel format • MATLAB (for curve fitting)

  10. Simulation

  11. Multiple Load Steps • Environment specification as “Sequence” • Specify the total number of steps in the details area.

  12. Edit Load Step Definition Step Controller Multiple Load Steps

  13. Edit Load Step Definition in Worksheet View Multiple Load Steps

  14. Multiple Load Steps • Pretension loads: • Force • Locked • Displacement • Open

  15. Results defined and displayed by step number Multiple Load Steps

  16. 2D Simulation • Plane Stress/Strain and Axisymmetry • Contact • Stress, Thermal, Modal, Harmonic, Shape • All existing loads

  17. Contact Enhancements • Contact Reaction Output Can Be Requested In A Local Coordinate System • Contact Worksheet Reactions Parameters • Scoping By Named Selections For Contact Regions

  18. Contact Enhancements • Penalty based “surface body /edge” contact that includes stiffness for rotational DOF • Save/Load contact region settings • Reset to default options

  19. Contact Enhancements • Explode / Merge contact pairs for same body pairs.

  20. Command Objects • Can be inserted under Contact Regions and Bodies • Body: Allow specifying material props not available in WB • Contact: Allows user to change contact options not covered in native WB • Contents are more independent of suppression and updates

  21. Command Objects • Input arguments available: • Allows specifying ARG1 thru ARG9 • Inputs can be parameterized • Can be renamed based on definition (renames to name of macro)

  22. Command Objects • Output images using ANSYS commands can be included

  23. Remote Displacement • Allows off-body: • Displacement application • Rotation centers

  24. Coordinate Systems • Cylindrical coordinate system applicable to Forces • Worksheet view to summarize all coordinate systems • User can specify the coordinate system number in the ANSYS input file

  25. What Do These Features Mean? • If you’re an ANSYS Mechancial user… …you should be looking at Workbench

  26. Beam Stress Tool • Scoping to line bodies specified at tool • Calculates stresses: • Direct • Min/Max Bending • Min/Max Combined

  27. Arbitrary Pick Location • Applicable to coordinate systems, remote force, and remote mass

  28. Miscellaneous • Report the body on which the max and min of a result occurs on • Allow Principal stress/strain and total deformation results in a harmonic analysis • Direct creation of a Selection Group from selected bodies in the tree

  29. Material Nonlinearity Switch • Specify Material Non-linearities Effects by Body • Structural: Ignores plasticity • Thermal: Ignores temperature dependency • Emag: Ignores BH curve

  30. Vector Results Display Options for vector arrows: scaling, size, grid, density, type Length sizing Grid density Grid aligned 3D Uniform vectors Element aligned Stick Proportional vectors

  31. Vector Results Display New Previous

  32. Vector Results Display

  33. Error Results • Stress • Thermal Flux

  34. Hex Dominant Mesher • Include with ANSYS Structural Greater • Enhancements • More Hex Elements • Less Pyramids

  35. CAD Plug-in Licensing • CAD Interface Licenses will be released when the data import process in complete.

  36. DesignModeler

  37. DesignModeler Overview • New features in DM 9.0 • 3D Curve Feature • Planar Bodies • Named Selection Base Object Support • BladeGen and STEP Imports • Winding Editor • Pattern Feature • Parameter Manager Functions

  38. 3D Curve Feature • Create 3D Curves from: • Model points • Coordinates File • Curves may be either open or closed. Open Curve Closed Curve

  39. Planar Bodies • Planar Bodies Are Surface Bodies In The XY-plane. • Planar Bodies Created In DesignModeler Are Used To Perform 2D Analysis In Workbench Simulation. Solid Planer

  40. Named Selection Base Objects • Named Selections Can Be Used As Base Objects For Basic Modeling Features. • The Named Selection May Contain Either Bodies, Faces, Edges, Or Points.

  41. BladeGen Import • CFX BladeGen (.bgd) files can be imported into DesignModeler. • Imports the flow path around the blade

  42. Pattern feature creates linear, circular, and rectangular patterns of face sets and bodies. Pattern Feature Linear Circular Rectangular

  43. Parameter Manager Functions • New Parameter Manager operations are supported in DesignModeler 9.0: Trigonometric functions: sin(x), cos(x), tan(x), asin(x), acos(x), atan(x) Exponentiation: x^y Absolute value: abs(x) Modulus: x % y Square root: sqrt(x) Natural log: ln(x) Exponential ex: exp(x)

  44. ANSYS Workbench SDK

  45. Multi-tiered Customization Tools • Creation or integration of compiled applications • The Simulation Wizard • Process Automation and Control • Scripting Interfaces • Process Automation • Workbench Customization and Feature Addition • The Workbench Applet Generator • Vertical Applications and Feature Additions

  46. UI Integration • Custom Wizard Editor

  47. Advanced Engineering Environment • Officially Released API Documentation at v9.0 • Stable Inter-version API Layer

  48. The Workbench Applet Generator • Upgrades • The Applet Generator is: • A Microsoft Visual Studio integrated Wizard (developed and shipped by ANSYS) • It produces executable Applets using pre-built Workbench Source Code Templates • It automates Applet • Installation and registration • GUI creation including callback functions

  49. Starting a Visual Studio –New Project

  50. 3rd Party Integration Example Excel Based Product – Application Framework Integration Framework Required to Eliminate Redundant Development Parameters Applicable For Other Applications
