Fatigue Analysis in ANSYS, 2-day training course

This Training Course is recommended for engineers who would like a broad and complete knowledge of ANSYS Workbench Fatigue features. Short notes will also be given on the fatigue analysis features in ANSYS Classic Environment.

After completion, mechanical analysts should have a wide understanding of how to perform a fatigue analysis, to distinguish between stress and strain life evaluation and how to get material fatigue properties.

Prior knowledge
Attendees are expected to have participated in the ANSYS training ANSYS Introduction to Workbench or have the corresponding level of knowledge.

Course Topics include:

• Introduction

• Historical Background

• Damage mechanisms and analysis process

• Fatigue overview, scope of application in fatigue module

• Stress-life fatigue evaluation; Theory, field of application and materials data

• Strain-life fatigue evaluation; Theory, field of application and materials data

• Weld fatigue evaluation; Overview of current methods for weld fatigue evaluation
  and Sub modelling technique in ANSYS Workbench

• Fatigue analysis available in ANSYS Classic

Each course chapter is followed by "hands-on" workshops
