writing input file in ansys workbench

Submitted by a. gaur on Tue, 12/01/2009 - 08:04

i m doing a project on vibrational analysis of ball bearing. i have made model in ansys workbench design modeler. now i want to do the analysis in ansys multiphysics. so i opened the model in simulation window of ansys workbench and meshed the model. then i clicked on the solution tab in environment and then written the ansys input file. i have not applied the forces and boundary conditions in workbench because the force is point load . i want to apply that in ansys multiphysics.

Dear Colleagues:

As a part of the 16th US National Congress of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics conference (from June 27 to July 2, 2010 at Penn State University), we are organizing a symposium on the multi-physics, or the coupling among physical domains (thermal, electrical, mechanical, magnetic, optical, chemical to name a few).

A Geometric Theory of Thermal Stresses

Geometric elasticity

In this paper we formulate a geometric theory of thermal stresses.

Given a temperature distribution, we associate a Riemannian

material manifold to the body, with a metric that explicitly

depends on the temperature distribution. A change of temperature

corresponds to a change of the material metric. In this sense, a

temperature change is a concrete example of the so-called

referential evolutions. We also make a concrete connection between

our geometric point of view and the multiplicative decomposition

Moving Heat Source in Gmaw process

Dear Sir/Madam,

i m quite new wd the ansys and was trying to simulate a problem of moving heat source in GMAW and has to move wd some Heat flux on the plate .how could i model heat distribution of the GMAW and how could i move it wd some velocity..

i hope i m clear,plz help me out.

Thank You,

A new Technical Committee on Soft Materials

A growing number of mechanicians are entering the field of soft materials, such as polymers, gels, and tissues. While they interact with researchers in technical societies traditionally identified with the field, they also maintain connection with researchers in applied mechanics.
