✍️ In this video, we are going to design and analyze a sandwich composite panel using ANSYS Composite PrepPost (ACP). We will go through the complete process of modelling, solving & post-processing. A sandwich composite panel is any structure made of three layers: a low-density core, and a thin skin-layer bonded to each side. Sandwich panels are used in applications where a combination of high structural rigidity and low weight is required.
Woven Composites design | ANSYS Tutorial
✍️ In this tutorial we are going to learn about ANSYS Material Designer environment and its abilities. We will see how to design unidirectional and woven composites in ANSYS Material Designer and extract their homogenized material properties. Composite materials consist of two or more layered or otherwise integrated materials to create a new material with different material properties. These materials combine the best properties of their component materials, resulting in a product that is both light and strong.
Impact Simulation of an Asteroid | ANSYS Tutorial
✍️ How can we simulate an asteroid impact with earth? Ansys explicit dynamics gives us a strong and robust tool to see the effects of such a phenomenon through impact simulation. In mechanical science, an impact is a high force or shock applied over a short period when two or more bodies collide. Every year we are hearing that a dangerous asteroid is approaching earth. These asteroids or planetoids are minor planets of the inner Solar System which can be very big and usually travelling with very high speeds.
How to create costume IPE Profiles | SolidWorks Tutorial
✍️ Drawing routine sections for structural members such as IPE profiles are a daily task for many engineers. In this tutorial we will learn how to create costume profiles using SolidWorks weldment toolbox. Weldment profiles are predefined standard or non-standard profiles that can be used for modelling structural members in SolidWorks.
Planetary Gears using GearTeq | SolidWorks Tutorial
✍️ In this tutorial, we want to learn about GearTeq software and its abilities for modelling planetary gears in SolidWorks. Also, we will see how to use gears data for creating a planetary gear set. Furthermore, we can learn how to change the fixed gear in the planetary gear set in the final SolidWorks assembly.
⭐ Creep in Materials ⭐
✍️ In this video lecture, we present a brief introduction about the importance of creep in industrial design. Also, we introduce a research project for further reading. Furthermore, we are going to get familiar with some basic terms and models for creep calculations in material science. The phenomenon of creep is the origin of many challenges in the design of industrial parts. The first step to deal with these challenges is to find some methods to predict the residual life of industrial components which are operating in a critical condition (high thermal and mechanical loads for a long time).
⭐ Creep Analysis | ANSYS Tutorial ⭐
✍️ In this tutorial, we are going to use ANSYS Workbench to simulate the creep deformation of an Aluminum Alloy (6061-T6) under constant stress and temperature. We will learn about the simulation of a Creep process in ANSYS Mechanical and analysis settings for Creep. For creep analysis, we will use Norton’s power law equation, which is the most important and widely used constitutive equation to predict the secondary Creep. We will see how to adjust the define material properties and settings of creep analysis in the static structural environment like creep effects, load steps, initial conditions, Creep Limit Ratio and Creep Strain Ratio.
⭐ Slider Crank Linkage Mechanism | SolidWorks Tutorial ⭐
✍️ In this video tutorial, we are going to model a Slider Crank Linkage mechanism in 2D and 3D environments using SolidWorks. In the last part of this video tutorial, the Slider Crank Linkage will be animated using the Motion Study module of SolidWorks. In engineering, a mechanism is a device that transforms input forces and movement into a desired set of output. Mechanisms generally consist of moving parts that can include: Gears, Belt and chain drives, cam and followers, and Linkage. A linkage is a collection of links connected by joints.
⭐ Tensile Test Specimen | SolidWorks Tutorial ⭐
✍️ Tensile tests are performed for several reasons. The results of tensile tests are used in selecting materials for engineering applications and determining material properties like elastic, plastic, creep, and corrosion behavior. A tensile specimen is usually a sample with standardized cross-section. In this tutorial, we are going to use SolidWorks to model a cylindrical tensile test specimen with threaded grip ends.
⭐ M-File Scripts | MATLAB Tutorial ⭐
✍️ In this video, we have provided more detailed information about the difference of M-files scripts and functions. In this tutorial, we will try to explain the basics of MATLAB M-files scripts. M-files scripts are an efficient way of executing repeatedly commands with MATLAB. we will see their usage, how to make them (create, save, and run), and how to manage them. Also, we get familiar about ways that assignment of a value to a variable can be done.
