What is Workbench?

The Simulation module in WB is built around core ANSYS technology.

Not all ANSYS capabilities have been exposed yet in Simulation, but it is certainly not a lightweight version of ANSYS. By using Commands objects, you can access virtually any ANSYS feature.
This advanced use of Workbench is the focus of this presentation.

Why Use Workbench?

There are many compelling reasons to use WB. Here are the top five:
Geometry Import
Tremendous savings in time

CAD Associativity
Easy to make geometry changes, update the simulation, and compare to previous scenario

Automatic Contact Detection

Hundreds of contact pairs are detected within seconds!
