Smart models in Ansys instead of dead geometry
Unnecessarily rigid CAE workflows slow down simulation. When every geometry change triggers manual update loops to fix references, the process ...
Particle Simulations as a Key Technology in Alpine Disaster Management
As a side effect of climate change, gravitational mass movements, including rockfalls, are becoming more frequent in the Alpine region. Scientists at ...
MRI despite implant? Simulation protects against heat damage
Magnetic resonance tomographs are now state of the art for diagnostic purposes in medical technology. However, the electromagnetic fields required ...
Particle simulation leads to optimized tribological properties
Surface finishing using mass finishing reduces friction and wear and increases component strength. Simulations with Ansys Rocky can be used to ...
Aeroacoustics with Ansys Fluent: Targeted Localization of Sound Sources
How do sounds arise in flows – and where exactly? In this article, we provide an overview of the aeroacoustic models available in Ansys Fluent. Using ...
Simulation of a thermal network model for lighting system drivers
Markus Mayrhofer and Dusko Vukovic (Tridonic GmbH & Co KG) have found a way to create more streamlined models for thermal simulations. They gave ...
Ansys Rocky: Accurate Simulations through Bulk Material Calibration
In bulk material simulations using the Discrete Element Method (DEM), precise calibration is essential. Since physical prototypes are often ...
Using Ansys Rocky to optimize silos for uniform discharge
Together with CADFEM, a manufacturer of molded sand silos was able to solve problems associated with discharge. The silo was optimized with Ansys ...
Mechanical-thermal coupled simulation of a brake disk
The simulation of coupled mechanical-thermal phenomena, as in a brake disk, can take a very long time. A solution in a shorter time can be achieved ...
A workflow for effective transfections
Transfections, i.e. the introduction of foreign DNA or RNA into human cells to manipulate human genetic information, is a promising approach to help ...
Innovative simulation approach reduces energy consumption of large fans
Large industrial fans in ventilation systems ensure good air quality in tunnels, halls and spacious buildings. But this consumes a lot of energy – ...
