<strong>Modeling</strong> <strong>with</strong> <strong>ANSYS</strong> – Geometry and <strong>Element</strong> type• The geometry and the element type have to be considered together.• Shell element are typically used for structure where the thickness is negligiblecompared to its length and width• Nevertheless, a plate modeled <strong>with</strong> solid element would provide similar results. Thedisadvantage lies in the computation time.• Ansys provides a large choices of elements.Shell181 Shell281 Solid186www.structures.ethz.chCENTRE OF STRUCTURE TECHNOLOGIESFull Name01.03.2011, page 6
