Length: 2 Days

Prerequisites

  • A basic knowledge of dynamics and strength of materials (material modeling) is highly recommended.
  • Knowledge of the physics of transient dynamics events is also recommended.
  • A basic Knowledge of ANSYS Mechanical in Workbench is advantageous but not required.
  • This course is generally considered to be a prerequisite to the ANSYS Autodyn Part II, 2 day training course.

Course Description

This course is designed for new users who want to become proficient with ANSYS Explicit STR in
ANSYS Workbench. You will focus on learning core-modeling skills in this comprehensive, hands-on
course. After completing the course you will be well prepared to work effectively on a wide
range of transient dynamics applications from low velocity drop tests through to high velocity
ballistic impacts.

Format

This is a two-day course for Explicit STR in Workbench held at our offices around the world at regular intervals throughout the year.
