Ansys Mechanical Nonlinear Materials for Metals

Course Overview

This course covers advanced nonlinear material options for metals modeling.

Prerequisites

  • Completion of the Ansys Mechanical Basic Structural Nonlinearities course is required.
  • Students need a working knowledge of the procedures for performing a basic nonlinear static structural analysis in the Mechanical Environment.
  • General familiarity with the Workbench Project Page, Engineering Data and the Mechanical Interface is assumed.

Teaching Method

Lectures and computer practical sessions to validate acquired knowledge. 

Learning Outcome

Following completion of this course, you will be able to:

  • Choose the appropriate material model for metals modeling.
  • Understand how to handle nonlinearities coming from materials.
  • Use the curve fitting tool.
  • Check the results.
  • Be familiar with the existing laboratory tests.
