ansys workbench: welded joint fatigue test

[OrlandoDs]

Hello everyone,

I'm horrendous. I have a problem with using ansys workbench; I have to perform a fatigue analysis of a laser welded test. as 3d modeling software use catia. when amounting the cad file of the audition designed with catia in ansys I would like to know how to make the ansys program recognize the welding cord. I'm a little early with the use of this program and I don't know if there is a specific tool that can allow me to characterize the welding cord of my audition. Moreover, in addition to this problem, I do not know well what command corresponds to an analysis of fatigue. I read some articles in which they recommend me, among the tools of ansys workbench, harmonic response, is it right to set this for a fatigue test? Thank you very much.

follow the program tutorials and look for something on youtube.
It's important to know the basis of a fem analysis.

Where can I find some good tutorials? I haven't been very helpful. I also have a good dust of fem analysis, despite this I can not finish my work

the tutorials you buy!
@volaff: better not put those links! I deleted your post (among other things the link was wrong ... better so).
