ANSYS DesignModeler Powerful Geometry Modeling for Engineering Simulation Creating design models is a core part othe product development pro- cess and the frst step in the simulation process. These models can be ogeometry orms representing actual design details, or they can be approximations othe designs using simplifed components like beams and plates. Besides being an essential component oengineering simu- lation, geometry also links engineering simulation with design and manuacturing, and thereby plays a critical role in Simulation Driven Product Development™. With direct interaces to all major computer-aided design (CAD) sys- tems, support oadditional readers and translators, and an integrated geometry modeler exclusively ocused on analysis, ANSYS oers the most comprehensive geometry handling solutions or engineering simulation in an integrated environment. The industry-leading ANSYS ® Workbench™ computer-aided engi- neering (CAE) integration environment is CAD-neutral and supports bidirectional, direct, associative interaces with all major CAD systems. The environment includes a eature-based solid modeler, which can be used to create a parametric geometry rom scratch or prepare an exist- ing CAD geometry or analysis. These tools provide a parametric and persistent modeling environment that is ideal or perorming design optimization. Automation with the Flexibility to Customize Parametric and Persistent Geometry modeling in the ANSYS Workbench environment is highly automated and also provides users the exibility to customize according to the type oanalysis or application. The eature-based, parametric ANSYS ® DesignModeler™ sotware can be used to cre- ate parametric geometry rom scratch or to prepare an existing CAD geometry or analysis. It includes automated options or simplifcation, cleanup, repair and deeaturing. Simulation oten demands unique modeling capabilities that typical CAD operations do not require. Thereore, these capabilities are either lacking in CAD syst ems or implemented in a ashion that is not optimum or perorming simulation.
