Case Study: Design and Analysis of a Chair
This case study demonstrates how an iterative design process starting with geometry design to simulation and validation can be carried out using Ansys Discovery. It starts with the design of a simple functional chair and uses simulation to improve the design by making it more aesthetic, light, and safe. With the support of Discovery, the impact of every design-based decision can be visualized in the results of the simulation model.
