created multiple configurations

[gtsolid]

Bye to all,
I'm doing rigidity accounts of structures and I happen many times to perform the same simulation 2 times: the first with loads and gravity, the second only with gravity.
It's long enough to throw, wait and raise. Is there a way to automate, at least in part, things?

hi gtsolid, putting so is a little too generic, explains better. in every case you can automate everything in ansys, it depends only if it is actually worth it and this depending on the time you can invest in that way. There are two ways, the first by creating an apdl file that is launched in the background by ansys the second via scripting in python.

Hi.
I'm in the wb. I'd like to launch a simulation where I first have the forces down and the next one where I don't have them.

Hi, what I don't understand is if:

1- the structure is always the same but the forces change
2- forces are always equal but change the points of application
3- both forces and points of application vary

because depending on the case the complexity varies and not just.

If you have only one struttra, just do two tests one with the forces and one with the gravity and then combine the effects linearly with the appropriate module.

If you have only one structure, just do two analyses with forces and one with gravity and then combine the effects in a linear manner with the appropriate module.

That would be my case.
the structure is always the same. I have to study his own deflection caused by gravity and then sum him that of forces. In this way I get a stiffness.
What form are you talking about?

The module is called design assessment.

guard qui:

otherwise you can use combination solution

the solution combinations seems to be my case. I can't add the second "static structural" to the waterfall.
in the link I see that it refers to the b5. maybe I have to connect something to the schematic project level?

you must link the solution to the design assessment module
