With the introduction of transient structural analyses in Creo Ansys Simulation, you can now evaluate the dynamic response of structures under time-varying loads. By defining loads and constraints as time-dependent functions, you can examine their impact on displacements, deformations, stresses, and strains in your model.

Key Features:

  • Define time-dependent loads and constraints using table functions.
  • Configure advanced simulation options, including:
    • Initial Velocity
    • Damping
    • Step Duration
    • Time-based Sub-stepping
  • View time-dependent result graphs for contour plots and probes.

Creo Parametric 11.0.0.0

User Interface Location: For an active structural study, select Ansys Simulation > Setup > Transient Mode.

Benefits:

  • Evaluate dynamic responses to time-history loading.
  • Predict structural integrity, natural frequencies, and vibration modes.
  • Simulate multi-step, time-dependent structural behavior.

Additional Information:

  • Limitations:
    • Only table functions are supported for time-varying load definitions. Expressions or formulas are not directly supported but can be created in Excel and imported.
    • Basic results reflect the quantity’s value at the last time step (static).
    • Animation of deformation results is not yet available for transient structural analyses.
    • These studies require significant computational resources and may take longer to execute.
  • Does this replace existing functionality? No.
  • Configuration Options: None.
