Lock View to XY plane for 2D analysis
For 2D analysis you often want the view in the XY plane. To do this you can use this script to generally snap back to the planar view: camera = ExtAPI.Graphics.Cameravector3D=Ansys.ACT.Math.Vector3Dcamera.ViewVector=vector3D(0,0,1)camera.UpVector=vector3D(0,1,0)

Plasticity Failure/Degradation in Explicit Dynamics when Reference Strain Rate is set to 0.001
I am simulating the impact behavior of high-strength material using Ansys Explicit Dynamics with the Johnson-Cook model. I have observed a strange numerical phenomenon: When Reference Strain Rate = 0.001s^-1: The simulation results show purely linear elastic behavior. Even when the stress exceeds 10,000 MPa, the Equivalent…

Is there a workaround wave to transfer species mass flux at the coupling interface?
Hello everyone, I am seeking to model the decomposition of a reacting solid domain as it is heated by surrounding flow. As the domain is heated, it ejects gases out of its boundaries. In the System Coupling approach, the fluid domain is modeled with an Ansys Fluent participant (passing heat flux to System Coupling), and…

How to specify license for ansys.geometry.core launch_modeler
When I do: from ansys.geometry.core import launch_modelermodeler = launch_modeler(hidden=True) The geometry service tries to connects to a disco_level1 license. I want it to connect to a mechanical enterprise license instead. ansys" v9999.9999, vendor: ansyslmd, expiry: 01-dec-2026 I just spoke to our tech support guy and…

How to create custom ACT Result Object with Scoping to a Construction Geometry Surface
I want to create an ACT Result Object with the Scoping set to a Construction Geometry Surface. Basically it should mimic the built-in Surface Result functionality, but I want to be able to map user created data (from scripting) to the cross section surface. It could be a Python Result object, or an ACT extension, or even…

Multistage cyclic Modal Energy Contribution
Hi Oscar / all, Building on this thread: in Mechanical there is a Modal-only postprocessing result called “Energy Contribution” that is extremely useful to classify modes (disk/drum vs blade modes) by comparing strain energy contribution per body for each mode. The Mechanical help states that Energy Contribution highlights…
