Ansys Structures Reviews - Page 13

ANSYS mechanical gives the user a lot of control over how to simulate a problem. It enables the user to select the exact element type and the kind of meshing that the user wants to work with. The biggest advantage is the APDL programming which a person can use to suit his or her simulation requirements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The interface of ANSYS Mechanical is too primitive and a user can have difficulty in visualizing a problem with a complex geometry. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ease of use. The UI is simple and very user-friendly. Also the automesh gives decent results and saves the effort of manual meshing Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Manual meshing is very difficult for complex modelling like for example in composite analysis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's straightforward on how to create 3D models and then set up simulations on them. There are plenty of different simulations that you can run, too. It's very powerful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It can take really long to run simulations and can crash sometimes. The student version is also very lacking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Very versatile software with many free options for students Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes it gets overwhelming of settings leaving you lost Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Every type of dynamic, static,safety,etc. can be simulated using ANSYS Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its sometimes slow to load reports. There are bugs in report generation toolbox Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ansys is one of the best software I have ever used. It's easy to use and gives desired results at every high stressed point. Also, it supports mostly all the file formats and the models can be edited. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Although it is the fastest tool available in the market for FEA, still I see some scope of improvement in that area. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nice and easy-to-use user interface with great capability to solve multi-physics problems, such as statics, dynamics, thermal, fluid, etc. In addition, they provide free version for students. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

License of the software is very expensive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

User-friendly interface makes Ansys very easy to use, Ansys divide every step in simulation procedure (model, meshing, boundary condition, results) with block, very convenient to track different designs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ansys makes simulation like a black box, you put input on one end and get output on the other. The results can be easily read by non-expert with colorful pictures which can be dangerous. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy interface. Multiple options. Great Tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Too many options can make it hard to use at times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

ANSYS combines support for every conceivable type of FEA analysis into one consistent package. Design modeler is great for quick tweaks to imported CAD geometry in order to prepare the model for analysis. Workbench interface makes it very easy to share geometry and material data between multiple different analyses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Geometry import from native CAD file formats seems to not work more often than it works. Design Modeler could be more intuitive for geometry creation from scratch. Some error messages when meshing and running analyses can be less than clear, so it is up to the user to know what he or she is doing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
