Better Designs and Shorter Design Cycles
To stay competitive, meet customer demands and develop innovative and reliable products in ever-shortening design cycles, designers and engineers require simulation tools that offer best-in-class integrated solutions. ANSYS structural mechanics solutions offer simulation tools to solve challenging engineering problems and create better products.
Vast Library of Elements and Materials
To represent complex real-world geometries, ANSYS structural mechanics solutions offer:• Support for a range of elements including beam, shell, solid and solid-shell elements. In addi- tion, pre-tension, joints, gasket, rebars/reinforcements and other special elements are available
-
A range of linear and nonlinear material models to handle composites, plasticity in metals, hyperelasticity of rubber components and specialized materials including cast iron, shape memory alloys, porous-elasticity and cohesive zone models
-
A robust and complete set of contact capabilities for surface- surface, line-surface and line-line contact for flexible and rigid bodies; contact behavior can account for constant or orthotropic friction as well as sliding behavior and is applicable for structural, thermal and multiphysics contact applications; fast, automatic contact detection backed by powerful algorithms allows for fast and accurate solving of models involving contacts
- Simulations also can be extended to a set of comprehensive multi- physics capabilities including thermal-stress, electro-mechanical, structural-acoustics, mass diffusion and thermal-fluid analysis
Non Linear Examples
Nonlinear ExamplesMost product designs and manufacturing processes exhibit complex and nonlinear behavior due to sliding contacts with friction between parts and nonlinear materials, like metals, under large and permanent deformation, solder joints, shape memory alloys, composites, cast iron, plastic, rubber, viscoelastic, nonlinear creep, etc.
To predict performance accurately and subsequently optimize design, you must employ a simulation solution, like ANSYS, that supports mathematical modeling and solution of highly nonlinear behavior. Nonlinear solution technologies from ANSYS offer best-in-class simulation tools for product design and optimization which increase productivity, minimize physical prototyping, and help deliver better and innovative products in less time. ANSYS nonlinear is built upon years of proven and reliable technology and is widely used across industries from automobile, aerospace, biomedical, electronics and consumer products.
Dynamics Examples
Most product designs and manufacturing processes exhibit complex dynamic behavior of one or more parts in an assembly. To predict performance accurately and subsequently optimize design, you must employ a simulation solution, like ANSYS, that supports mathematical modeling and solution of highly dynamic behavior. The ANSYS software allows to model rigid assemblies, flexible components or any combination of rigid and flexible bodies, using a wide range of methods as shown below.
ANSYS dynamics software is built upon years of proven and reliable technology and is widely used across industries from automobile, aerospace, biomedical, electronics and consumer products.
ANSYS structural mechanics also include a comprehensive set of tools for the simulation of rotating machinery, for all types of geometries including axisymmetric or 3-D solid models.

Sheet Metal Stamping Simulation
Forming Simulation ExpertsSimulateLite® servicio de prueba a pedido en forma virtual.
Prueba tu herramienta o el proceso de diseño en el mundo virtual antes de que la sea creada.
SimulateLite® elimina los problemas en la formación antes de que ocurran. No se necesita ningún conocimiento del software Finite Element Analisys.
Comenzando con 495US$ los ingenieros de StampingSimulations.com realizan una prueba virtual para identificar cualquier problema en la formación, con el objetivo de solucionar (no sólo resaltar) los inconvenientes al simular las ideas y contratiempos en el mundo virtual, por lo tanto, se prueba el diseño antes de que se efectúe cualquier fabricación costosa. Este procedimiento es completamente en línea y se utiliza el software de StampingSimulatio.com y todos sus recursos.
Proveer la información del diseño existente de la herramienta en 3D.
El cliente tiene una herramienta o un proceso de diseño y desea ver la simulación para verificar si se producen roturas, arrugas o problemas en la formación. El información del diseño de la herramienta se envía a los ingenieros de StampigSimulatio.com al seleccionar Comenzar un Trabajo Ahora.
Realizar una simulación
StampingSimulation.com utiliza la información de la herramienta del cliente y las propiedades del material y la simulación está lista para calcular los datos.
Realizar pruebas virtuales
Se calcula la simulación utilizando el software AutoForm para simular la formación de láminas de metal. Los problemas previstos se identifican y luego se solucionan al aplicar las medidas necesarias. El proceso de prueba virtual se repite hasta que todos los problemas se eliminan.
Entrega de soluciones
Se entregan las soluciones en forma electrónica al cliente o se revisan en una reunión en línea. Los resultados de la simulación se le entregan al cliente para que los utilice en el mundo real.

Sheet Metal Stamping Simulation
Forming Simulation ExpertsSimulateComplete® proceso de ingeniería a pedido
SimulateComplete® es la forma inteligente de acelerar su proyecto en lámina de metal.
Con un precio de 995 US$ los ingenieros de StampingSimulation desarrollan un exitoso proceso de conformado que comienza con la geometría del diseño de su producto. El diseño final del mismo (diseño geométrico) se convierte en la superficie de la herramienta y se utiliza para simular el formado de la parte, verificado en forma virtual.
Proveer un modelo en 3D del diseño.
El cliente tiene un diseño geométrico de una parte. Cuando elije Comenzar un Trabajo Ahora, la información del diseño del producto se transfiere a los ingenieros de StampigSimulation.
Ingeniería en el proceso de formado.
Un proceso de formado se adapta a las especificaciones del cliente. Las especificaciones pueden ser brindadas por el cliente o StampingSimulation puede desarrollar todo el proceso.

How it works
SimulateComplete® - Complete Process Engineering
Step 1: Provide a 3D model of the product design
The client has product design geometry (the part). The product design data is transferred to StampingSimulation engineers by choosing to Start a Job Now.
Step 2: Forming process engineered
A forming process is engineered to the client's specifications. Input and guidance may be provided by the client, or StampingSimulation can develop the entire process independently.
Step 3: Proven with simulation
The engineered process is tested with simulation and re-engineered with simulation until a feasible forming process is developed.
Step 4: Results delivered
Once a successful forming process is engineered, the requested data outputs are generated and sent to the client. For example, the client may choose to give the tooling surfaces to their tool designer (saving a significant amount of time in the design of the tool), and may wish to cut their first blank from the developed blank shape data.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SimulateLite® - Virtual Tryout
Step 1: Provide existing 3D tool design data
The customer has a an existing tool or process design and wishes to see it simulated to check for splits wrinkles or other forming problems. The tool design data is transferred to StampingSimulation.com engineers by choosing to Start a Job Now.
Step 2: Simulation setup
Using the client's tooling data and material properties, StampingSimulation.com sets up the simulation, ready for calculation.
Step 3: Virtual tryouts performed
The simulation is calculated using the worldclass AutoForm sheet metal forming simulation software. Predicted problems are identified and then addressed by applying appropriate countermeasures. The virtual tryout process is repeated until all problems are eliminated.
Step 4: Results delivered
The results are delivered electronically to the customer or reviewed via an online meeting. Practical simulation outputs are delivered to the client for use in the real world.
