Ansys nCode DesignLife 2024 R1

ANSYS nCode DesignLife works with ANSYS Mechanical to reliably evaluate fatigue life. Using finite element analysis (FEA) results from ANSYS Mechanical, it calculates stress and strain, then accumulates damage from repeated loading to determine the product's predicted life. You can quickly evaluate the impact of different materials and alternative shapes on new designs, then optimize them for the product's intended use—long before prototyping first built.

ANSYS nCode DesignLife provides a comprehensive fatigue diagnostic process. It is the industry-leading tool for durability analysis, fully integrated within ANSYS Workbench for ease of use and a smooth workflow for FEA fatigue analysis. Professional users can create complex load “duty cycles” based on measurements that represent actual forces on the product; Additionally, they can use expected load history. Once created, the fatigue process can be recorded and reused. Modified product designs can be evaluated without requiring fatigue expertise to determine updated product life. End-to-end automation eliminates the majority of errors and ensures consistency in the analysis performed, especially in large organizations with many engineers performing analysis.

Features:

• Full integration into ANSYS Workbench
• Easy click and drag setup
• Extensive fatigue resource library
• Modern fatigue modeling capabilities
• High-speed solver.

This version of nCode DesignLife requires pre-installation of ANSYS 2024 R1 Win64 with fixes from SSQ and use of an ANSYS 2024 R1 Win64 license.
