Description
ANSYS Mechanical APDL for Finite Element Analysis provides a hands-on introduction to engineering analysis using one of the most powerful commercial general purposes finite element programs. APDL is the foundation for all sophisticated features, many of which are not exposed in the Workbench Mechanical user interface. Students will find a practical and integrated approach that combines finite element theory with best practices for developing, verifying, validating and interpreting the results of finite element models, while engineering professionals will appreciate the deep insight presented on the program’s structure and behavior. Additional topics covered include an introduction to commands, input files, batch processing, and other advanced features in ANSYS.
Ansys Mechanical finite element analysis software is used to simulate computer models of structures, electronics, or machine components for analyzing strength, toughness, elasticity, temperature distribution, fluid flow, and other attributes. Ansys is used to determine how a product will function with different specifications, without building test products or conducting crash tests.
This course introduces new users, or experienced Ansys Mechanical users, to the Ansys Mechanical APDL user interface and also ANSYS Fluent . The Mechanical APDL workflow, graphical user interface, and analysis of simple mechanical components like Beam, Bar, Truss, Plate etc. With this foundation in place, users can apply this knowledge to efficiently set up, solve, and post process virtually any type of analysis. This course work is divided into two sections. First section contains Computational Fluid Dynamic analysis of Real-world Engineering problems using ANSYS Fluent. Second section contains multiple subsections, combining almost all types of Finite Element Analysis, e.g. Thermal Analysis, Structural Analysis, Analyzing Engineering Mechanics problems etc. using ANSYS Mechanical APDL. In this coursework nineteen videos are there containing practical applications of various types of Analysis.

Instructor
I am a Mechanical Engineering professional with extensive overseas academic & industrial experience. I have worked both in national & international universities, affiliated to UK & USA as an expert in Computer Aided Mechanical Engineering Design & Analysis.
I passed B. Tech. & MTech. both from National Institute of Technology, Durgapur which is one of the best institutes in our country.
I have a cumulative experience of twenty-five years which includes four years in industry & twenty -one years in academic field.
At the initial part of my career from 1994 to 1997 in four years I worked almost in all categories of Mechanical Engineering, like Production, Design, Sales, Marketing & even in construction.
My career in academic field started in 1997 from National Institute of Technology, Durgapur itself where I worked 10 years as a Technical Assistant. besides laboratory classes, I used to take theoretical classes on Robotics & Thermal Engineering to M. Tech & B. Tech final year students.
Next to that I got an opportunity to work as a Mechanical Engineering Faculty in Gulf Universities which are affiliated to University of South Carolina, USA, Glasgow Caledonian University and University of Central Lancashire, UK.
I worked there for ten years. From there itself I got my technical expertise in the field of Computer Aided Mechanical Engineering Design & Analysis using, ANSYS, SolidWorks, PTC CREO, Pro E, CATIA, Auto CAD & Auto-Desk Inventor.
In between I worked in Dronacharya College of Engineering, Greater Noida as an Associated Professor for one year.
After working over two decades in this field I have advanced knowledge in Computer Aided Mechanical Engineering Design & Analysis. Moreover, my previous positions afforded me a well-rounded skill-set, including excellent relation-ship building & time management skills.
In 2018 September, I returned from Gulf & started working as a Mechanical Engineering Design, CAD, CAM consultant in my own consultancy. Here I provide training of all phases of Design process for multiple products, components, parts, assemblies, sub-assemblies including Drafting, Dimension & Documenting results using CAD software.
At present I am working as a Senior CAD/CAM/CAE Professional at Simpal Group, Tehran, together with that I am continuing my work as a CAD, CAM consultant in my own consultancy, ERUDIRE PLUS.
