Introduction to ANSYS - FEA using ANSYS - Lesson 1

The first in a series of video tutorials on using ANSYS to perform finite element analysis. In this introduction, we will model a fixed-fixed beam with a midspan load using Static Structural analysis.

Learning objectives:

1. Define simple geometry using SpaceClaim.
2. Create a mesh with a specified element size.
3. Apply boundary conditions and loads.
4. Examine deformation and stress results. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h7dhDe-fZeg
