ANSYS DesignModeler Video Series

ANSYS DesignModeler is a application from ANSYS that provides modeling functions unique for simulation that include detailed geometry creation, CAD geometry modification, simplification and concept model creation tools. Simulation often demands unique modeling capabilities that typical CAD operations do not require. Therefore these capabilities are either lacking in CAD systems or implemented in a fashion that is not optimum for performing simulation related functions. View the following videos to learn more about these unique capabilities.
