Generate a unique ready-to-run input file starting from a set of analyses inside the ANSYS Mechanical tree. The input file can be launched in batch mode and it is compatible with Windows or Linux OS

Evaluate anisotropic material constants for non-homogeneous material which is Lattice structure, Composite (e.g. FRP using short or long fiber), Honeycomb and so on. Template function to create microstructure model is also included in Design Modeler and SpaceClaim

Easily make NACA (National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics) airfoil geometry models for 3D fluid flow computations

Expose the nonlinear diagnostics (NLDIAG) functionality in Mechanical to identify or display the highly distorted elements

Model radiation fields of antennas and phased arrays without modelling geometry

Allow a direct connection between ANSYS Workbench and OASIS, a powerful design exploration and optimization tool that can accelerate your design process. The plugin allows for simple setup of optimizations with your Workbench models

Expose the MAPDL offshore features in Mechanical

Easy and efficient tool for parametric optimization. Define the task rapidly and find better solutions automatically. SORVI design booster is easy to learn, simple to use, and it automates the exploration for better solutions.

Implement a PID thermostat controller as load object in Mechanical. Suitable for transient thermal analyses needing temperature control

Provide a dialog box with view controls for the Mechanical graphics window. The controls allow for Pan, Zoom and Rotate in a style similar to the controls available in the Mechanical APDL interface

Create design points by sweeping parameter values

Create curves using parametric equations. Any valid Python equation or function can be used to generate parametric curves, with the ability to mark up to 50 independent coefficients as Workbench parameters
