Ansys Structures Reviews - Page 12

User interface is very good never felt difficulty , Solver is very good Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ansys solver methodologies are different it took time to understand Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The capability to simulate the results and to export it in different formats Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The complexity of the software which includes many solver packages instead should be as add-ons. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to use interface. More silver options. Accuracy in results Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Limitations in meshing for Student version. Maybe increased to 5 million nodes Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ansys is the most accurate software available to engineers who need to conduct finite element analysis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Aside from FEA, Ansys doesn't really provide much benefit to it's users. Most other tasks are accomplished with software like Solidworks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The availability of options and types of modules. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Only a few materials are defined internally in the software database. Adding more to the database file is a pain Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

ANSYS is a professional program for the calculation of mechanical components and structures. The program allows you to make component designs or import them from another CAD program.

With the design of the components or the structure, you can define the material or materials that will form the component, the forces that will act on the component and the rest of the parameters necessary for the calculation.

In addition, it allows you to perform different calculation modes, depending on what you need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The program needs to improve the design section. It is easy to draw simple pieces, but the work is complicated when we try to design complex structures.

Also, many times when you try to import complex parts from another CAD program, they do not appear correctly and you need to redesign some parts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ease of using the software is unmatched by any other engineering simulation tool. The tightly integrated multi-physics solver offers capability to transfer solutions between physics modules. The geometry offers just enough capability to edit the geometry while iterating between designs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The solver times are large compared to alternatives such as solidWorks. Further, the integrated geometry design tool is limited in functionality. The tool can be extended to take into account man recent advances in the industry. Using User Defined Functions (UDF's) can be difficult to learn. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The variety of material models

User friendliness for setting up problems

Easy post processing Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Meshing is hard

loading and BC conditions may become confusing Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Awesome simulation software for stress measurement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Problems with units sometimes...

So we have to carefully put all the units for getting correct answer Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While most other analysis software requires a tonne of ram ansys can make do with the minimum you can offer. It runs smoothly, accurately and glitches free. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While the workbench is quite user-friendly, the other APDLs like mechanical etc could use more graphics enhancements and make them more user-friendly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
