Running Simulation Studies—Creo Ansys Simulation
Structural Simulation Studies
To run a simulation study perform the following steps:
1. Define the minimum required simulation objects as follows:
◦ For a structural simulation study—Define the following minimum requirements :
▪ Loads
▪ Constraints
▪ Material Assignment
◦ For a modal simulation study—Define the following minimum requirements :
▪ Constraints
▪ Material Assignment
◦ For a thermal simulation study—Define the following minimum requirements :
▪ Boundary Conditions
▪ Thermal Loads
▪ Material Assignment
2. To run a combined study, if your active study is a structural study, click > and select the Include Thermal check box.
Define thermal loads and boundary conditions. The design study is now a combined study and contains both structural and thermal simulation entities.
Similarly to run a combined study if your active study is a thermal study, click > and select the Include Structural check box.
Define structural loads and boundary conditions. The design study is now a combined study and contains both structural and thermal simulation entities.
3. Define any other optional simulation objects such as connections, idealizations, surface regions.
5. Click > to run the study.
