For line bodies, only displacement results are available. The cross-section and orientation of line bodies are defined within DesignModeler and are imported into Simulation automatically. For surface bodies, thickness must be supplied in the “Details” view of the “Geometry” branch. Geometry In structural analyses, all types of bodies supported by Simulation may be used. Nonlinear static and dynamic analyses are covered in later chapters. MaInventory #002215 4-2įor a linear static structural analysis, the displacements is statically applied No time-varying forces are considered No inertial effects (mass, damping) are included It is important to remember these assumptions related to linear static analysis.

Free vibration, harmonic, and nonlinear structural analyses are not discussed here but in their respective chapters. Some options discussed in this chapter may require more advanced licenses, but these are noted accordingly.

Additionally, improved integrations between Sherlock, Mechanical & Icepak can handle multiple PCB assemblies for motherboard or daughter board applications.2 Chapter Overview In this chapter, performing linear static structural analyses in Simulation will be covered: Geometry and Elements Contact and Types of Supported Assemblies Environment, including Loads and Supports Solving Models Results and Postprocessing The capabilities described in this section are generally applicable to ANSYS DesignSpace Entra licenses and above.
