Introduction to ANSYS nCode DesignLife

Overview

This is an introductory course to the Standard ANSYS nCode DesignLife fatigue tool. It is aimed at providing students with the skills to carry out a fatigue analysis of components and structures in order to be able to make a durability assessment. You will learn how to use the results of a finite element analysis to define a damaging stress/strain history, how to assign fatigue properties to different areas of the model and how to use stress and strain approaches to make an estimate of fatigue life.

Prerequisites

  • A technical education and/or background in an engineering discipline is recommended but having an engineering degree is not required. Some experience of using ANSYS Workbench would be useful.

Target Audience: Engineers and Designers

Teaching Method: Lectures and computer practical sessions to validate acquired knowledge. A training certificate is provided to all attendees who complete the course.
