Introduction to Simulation with ANSYS Mechanical APDL

ANSYS mechanical APDL has become a powerful tool for finite element analysis to solve enormous range of mechanical engineering applications. It has capabilities to solve problems ranging from simple, linear, static analysis to a complex, nonlinear, transient dynamic analysis, in the fields of stress analysis, fluid and heat transfer, etc... The trend of this book is to provide students with a theoretical and practical knowledge and skills required to analyze mechanical engineering problems with ANSYS mechanical APDL. The book utilizes step by step guidance to teach reader how to use graphics user interface (GUI) and ANSYS parametric Design language (APDL) and it presents many examples built from scratch in different mechanical subjects. This book will be suitable guide and entrance for students and engineers with ANSYS.
