Smart Structural Verification According to Standards in Ansys with SDC Verifier

Discover quick and intuitive way of result presentation with automatic reporting. Take your structural verification according to Standards to the new level with Ansys and SDC Verifier!

Ansys software is delivering to the engineers a lot of outstanding simulation possibilities. But how to know that the calculation results are OK? How to get your results verified and certified? For this, you need to follow the Design Rules and Industry Standards which already contain best procedures and recommended practices to ensure that the verified structures can withstand multiple failure modes. Static stress check, fatigue, beam buckling, plate buckling, weld strength, bolted and riveted connection strength, joints verification and other checks are included in Industry Standards.

Things are starting to get complicated because these checks are done on structural members and not on finite elements. So typical workflow forces an engineer to use not only one Ansys software, but also standalone code-checking tools and a separate model, or even a hand calculation for that. In the design stage, it requires double modelling, and multiple interactions between the two databases. This drastically increases the engineering time and generates extra routine tasks to the design verification process.

Workflow presented in this webinar breaks the boundaries and provides a completely different approach with Ansys + SDC Verifier simultaneous connection. We will present an automatic, mesh independent recognition of structural members like joints, beam members, welds, stiffened plates, etc. and demonstrate how to perform code checking analysis according to AISC, ABS, DNV, Norsok, API, DIN, FEM, DVS, FKM, ISO, Eurocodes, ASME and other codes directly in Ansys.

Presented workflow saves up to 40% of the time on repetitive engineering routine, simplifies the design process, and reduces the deadline pressure. You will learn how to combine the loads according to the Standard requirements. See how recognition of structural members allows an engineer to use one Ansys model for multiple design problems.
