Simulating Composite Structures
Composites provide new solutions for manufacturers looking for stronger, lighter and more cost-effective materials. At the same time, they pose new modeling and manufacturing challenges because of the nature of the materials. Ansys Composites PrepPost (ACP) is the right simulation tool: designers can account for residual stresses, predict performance, analyze reliability and potential failures, optimize construction, and export accurate information to manufacturing, all before a physical prototype is built.
