One of the biggest challenges in predicting fatigue failure is characterizing the load over the lifetime of a part. Using simulation solutions, like ANSYS Mechanical and ANSYS nCode DesignLife, engineers can run numerous load and design variations to ensure their products meet fatigue specifications and will continue to perform beyond the warranty period. Better yet, they can perform simulations and optimizations before building the product. In this way, engineers can make improvements early in the development cycle and utilize optimization algorithms to further streamline the design process. In this webinar, participants will learn the difference between material fatigue and high- and low-cycle fatigue failure, plus how to account for fatigue in design using simulation.

Ansys Fluent has been enhanced to organize the process for running simulations with a task-based workflow that guides you through the simulation process, reduces the options to only those that are relevant at each point in the process and provides best practices as defaults. This workflow presents you with the right choices to lead you to an accurate solution, making it possible to develop a better product in less time. Read this white paper to see how the new workflow can be can be utilized to reduce the time and software skill required to mesh watertight CAD geometry.
Liquid chromatography is a purification technique widely used in the pharmaceutical industry as a critical unit operation for protein purification in a fluid mixture moving in a definite direction. Understanding the separation mechanism is key to a successful scale up and commercialization of this process. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations give deep insights into the effect of parameters like geometry, fluid density, viscosity, flow rates etc. on the separation mechanism. Being able to understand and adjust those parameters during the design of a chromatography column enables a successful scale up from a lab-scale to a production scale. This webinar spotlights how Ansys CFD simulations help design chromatography columns and delivers a quick tutorial that demonstrates the entire process.
Optical simulation includes not only visible wavelengths, but also UV and IR wavelengths. Using the Ansys high-frequency (HF) solution, optical simulation can be extended to electromagnetics simulation, which is very important in evaluating, for example, the signal transfer function of mobile healthcare applications. The capability to incorporate different sensor types simplifies colorimetric analysis for developing virtual tests that detect bacteria concentrations, and for simulating early-stage cancer detection devices that analyze the spectral transmission of cells. Using IR wavelengths exposes deeper layers of skin, while electromagnetic wave propagation helps simulate technologies like MRI scanners.

JSP invented ARPRO Expanded Polypropylene (EPP) plastics and leads in its production. Needing more performance for its computer-aided engineering (CAE) analysis, JSP chose a TotalCAE appliance built on Intel Xeon Gold 6238 processors. JSP says the appliance improves Ansys LS-DYNA performance by up to 35 percent compared to its previous system, which used dual Intel Xeon processors E5-2697 v3. The appliance helps JSP keep pace with its growing CAE requirements while saving time and accelerating time-to-insights for the company’s CAE team.
High-performance computing (HPC) resources can provide a substantial boost to simulation, but an HPC cluster can be complex and difficult to manage. By deploying a managed HPC cluster for ARA, the client was able to eliminate internal maintenance and support overhead, while improving productivity and reliability for their Ansys workloads.

Power electronics is a part of just about every market that involves electrification of systems: cell phones, computers, consumer electronics, automobiles, ships, aircraft, spacecraft and everything in between. This includes all types of power conditioning such as rectifiers (AC to DC), converters (DC to DC) and inverters (DC to AC). It is vital to be able to evaluate the power electronics in the overall power system to include: Sources (such as renewable energy, batteries, generators, etc.) Distribution (such as cabling, bus bars, fault protection, etc.) Loads (such as motors and other electronics) These types of systems require a suite of design, modeling and analysis tools (for magnetics, power device characterization, cabling, bus bars, PCB parasitics, EMI/EMC, thermal, etc). This webinar highlights Ansys solutions to address all these aspects of power electronics and power systems. Speaker: Steve Chwirka, Senior Application Engineer, Ansys
