SALOME MECA open source software for FEA / CAE analysis

 Another very complex program that uses the finite element method is Salome Meca (Code Aster).The Code Aster program has been developed by EDF since 1989.It is quite a little popular software (OPEN SOURCE type) but worth attention. In this post, I will explain the specifics of this type of solution a little more.

ParaView - open source postporcessing software for data analysis

 In many studies, appearance is the factor that attracts attention. During the face to face presentation, 90% of the speaker's perception is assessed by appearance and gestures (according to the latest research).

How to... import external geometry to Design Modeler in Ansys Workbench

 It often happens that our geometry generated in Design Modeler requires modification. Our model may be incomplete or we need to replace some elements. In such circumstances, it is worth using the Import External Geometry function.

Example of Improted Shaft (green) to Design Modeler 
This function allows us, above all, to replace certain geometric variants with those that are modified or made in a different CAD program. Due to the Design Modeler license we have, we can import various types of files. These can be direct files from an external program such as Solid Works or universal extensions such as parasolid x_t.

How to... prepare FSI analysis with several reference points Fluent - Static Structural

 More and more often we have to perform combined analyzes, i.e. thermal (CFD) plus strength. Ansys offers for us one-way or two-way FSI analyzes (FSI - fluid structure interaction).
