Contained in 12 chapters, the text introduces ANSYS Workbench through detailed examples and hands-on case studies, and includes homework problems and projects using ANSYS Workbench software that are provided at the end of each chapter.Ĭovers solid mechanics and thermal/fluid FEAContains ANSYS Workbench geometry input files for examples and case studiesIncludes two chapters devoted to modeling and solution techniques, design optimization, fatigue, and buckling failure analysisProvides modeling tips in case studies to provide readers an immediate opportunity to apply the skills they learn in a problem-solving contextįinite Element Modeling and Simulation with ANSYS Workbench benefits upper-level undergraduate students in all engineering disciplines, as well as researchers and practicing engineers who use the finite element method to analyze structures.įormulation of the Plane Stress/Strain Elementįormulation of the Plate and Shell Elementsįormulation for Frequency Response Analysisįormulation for Transient Response Analysisĭesign Space Exploration for Parametric Optimization The material in the book discusses one-dimensional bar and beam elements, two-dimensional plane stress and plane strain elements, plate and shell elements, and three-dimensional solid elements in the analyses of structural stresses, vibrations and dynamics, thermal responses, fluid flows, optimizations, and failures. They emphasize correct usage of FEA software, and techniques in FEA modeling and simulation. The authors reveal the basic concepts in FEA using simple mechanics problems as examples, and provide a clear understanding of FEA principles, element behaviors, and solution procedures. Include FEA in Your Design and Analysis of Structures Using ANSYS Workbench Incorporating the basic theories of FEA and the use of ANSYS Workbench in the modeling and simulation of engineering problems, the book also establishes the FEM method as a powerful numerical tool in engineering design and analysis. Providing an introduction to finite element modeling and analysis for those with no prior experience, and written by authors with a combined experience of 30 years teaching the subject, this text presents FEM formulations integrated with relevant hands-on applications using ANSYS Workbench for finite element analysis (FEA). Learn Basic Theory and Software Usage from a Single Volumeįinite Element Modeling and Simulation with ANSYS Workbench combines finite element theory with real-world practice.

Liu's interests are in computational mechanics, finite element method, boundary element method, and fast multipole method in modeling composite materials, fracture, fatigue, structural dynamics, and acoustics problems. Prior to joining the faculty, he conducted postdoctoral research at the Center of Nondestructive Evaluation of Iowa State University and worked at Ford Motor Company as a CAE analyst. He obtained his BS and MS in aerospace engineering from Northwestern Polytechnical University (China), and his PhD in theoretical and applied mechanics from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
