    Ansys - which analysis system to use?

    No... I'm not just looking to create a pretty picture with color contours. I'm actually designing a jacking system for offshore platform which uses hydraulic pressure to move the components and then it will generate friction force to move another components(clamping units), instead of using...

    Ansys - which analysis system to use?

    Yes I'm using Ansys 14.0. I have some ideas on workbench only because one of my classmate showed me a demo on it. This is my first time using Ansys (traditional). I don't even know how to create a modeling. Can you guide me a bit? Can I import my Solidworks drawing file to do the Contacts?

    Ansys - which analysis system to use?

    Thanks for you reply Matt. :smile: I'll read the manual and try to figure something out. By the way my drawing is done by using SolidWorks. I tried to use the simulation system in Solidworks but it says cannot be run for assembly parts. So I'm trying Ansys now.
