What you'll learn:
- Understand the basics and fundamentals related to finite element analysis
- Learn how to model your system using design moduler
- Learn how to generate the mesh and obtain mesh independent system
- Learn how to set the right preprocessing and postprocessing
- Understand the different types of contacts, supports and loads
- Learn how to comprimize the computational cost
- Learn how to validate your FE-Solver results
This is a basic course that focuses on finite element analysis and its applications. The course provides an essential theoretical background for any FE solver user. The evolution of FEM, basic definitions, types of elements, analysis types, model fidelity, pre-processing and post-processing are all discussed with the aid of some mathematical and technical applications. Besides, the course includes 11 static analysis tutorials on Ansys software to link the theoretical background to the software application. Finally, there are many assignments and working files annexed to the lectures, to allow students the opportunity to applywhat they learn on their own, also the slides are attached to lecture for thestudent's convenience.
