In part three of our NAFEMS Discovery Benchmark Series we move beyond simple plates to look at more complex 3D structures to ensure the software can accurately handle a broad spectrum of geometries including cylinders and cantilevers. Read on to see how Discovery handled this benchmark test.
Part two in our NAFEMS Discovery Benchmark Series tackles pressure plates. The NAFEMS linear elastic benchmarks feature two problems where a plate is subjected to a pressure load. LE1 involves a thin elliptic structure stretched outwards by a pressure force, while LE10 uses the same plate, but thickens it and applies a higher pressure. Read on to see how Discovery handled this benchmark test.
In 1986, NAFEMS first published a set of benchmarks for FEA codes with the aim to develop a set of standard tests that would more critically allow developers and users to interrogate the performance of FEA software. In this NAFEMS Discovery benchmark series we put Ansys Discovery to the test against challenging benchmarks to see just how well this tool can improve your design workflow.
The LEAP team had a fantastic week at the 2025 Avalon Australian International Airshow representing our partners PTC and Ansys and showcasing impressive innovations alongside Integra Systems, Monash HPR and RMIT University. Read our recap and see some of the technology on display during the show.
The Ansys Shared Web License allows users to work from anywhere, on any device with an internet connection. This is a clear difference from Flexnet License which requires both the user and license server device to be within the same network. This article explains the benefits and provides details on how you can get started with of Ansys Shared Web Licensing today.
Recently LEAP ran an Ansys user group meeting in Perth where local Ansys users showcased their work and the LEAP Technical Team presented their highlights of the latest updates in Ansys Structures and Ansys Fluids.
If you were unable to make it in-person to the event or join the live stream, we’ve got the next best thing for you: a live recording of the Structures update session presented by Dr. Luke Mosse. Luke is a Senior Application Engineer at LEAP Australia, and in the following videos he presents the highlights from the Ansys 2024 Structures & Explicit Dynamics R1 and R2 releases.
The Advanced Material Data libraries in Ansys Granta Selector offer significant benefits to university student teams by providing access to specialised material data that is tailored to their unique needs. This article explains how these libraries empower students to make informed decisions in their engineering projects, whether they are working with metals, polymers, composites, or electromagnetic materials. By leveraging these resources, university teams can enhance the precision and effectiveness of their material selection process.
Fresh from an extraordinary victory in the final race at the Adelaide 500, and capping off another successful Supercars Championship season in 2024 for Red Bull Ampol Racing, this article takes you behind-the-scenes into the workshop of Triple Eight Race Engineering to find out what makes their engineering team arguably *the* best in the business.
This guest blog from Team Lunar, a Melbourne-based team made up of 6 Brighton Grammar School students participating the F1 in Schools competition explains how their usage of Ansys simulation and Keyshot 3D rendering has helped them get ahead of the pack.
With a track record of success dating back to 2022, Lunar has amassed over 30 category awards combined, establishing themselves as decorated, formidable competitors at both State and National competitions, now representing Australia at the World Finals later this year.
University teams can greatly benefit from the versatile capabilities of Ansys Granta Selector. Here are some potential uses that can enhance your projects: Design and
