Beware that you have to use a harmonic axisymmetric element to do this.  The legacy plane25 or newer solid273 elements have this capability, but not the conventional plane183's.  I doubt WB is set up for this.

Subject: [Xansys] 2D Axisymmetric Analysis with non-Axisymmetric load

Dear all,

I have a silly question, I am trying to apply non-Axisymmetric load to a 2D-Axisymmetric analysis in Ansys Workbench. I couldn't able to figure out a feasible way to apply nodal force to get realistic results. Is it really possible in Ansys Workbench? Any inputs would be highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

With harmonic elements the problem is determining when you have included
enough Fourier series terms to get a realistic answer. I don't think you can
get a fully  bounded answer at the point of application, but you can get
good results in general. The classic demo problem is a cantilevered  beam
(or doubly cantilevered). The verification check compares deflection under
load and stress at the cantilever root(s) - compared to another
approximation from beam theory. If you expect realistic stress results at
the point of application, I think you'll be disappointed - point loads are a
fiction and each Fourier term will add a little bit well beyond what is
reasonable.

These elements are a relic from the time when men were men and computers had
no silicon, but rather lots of fine wire and ferrite cores for memory. And
not much memory at that. Their  advantage was efficient utilization of the
limited available resources.

paper back to my office and make sense of it, often referring to a x-y bed

These elements are a relic from the time when men were men and computers had no silicon, but rather lots of fine wire and ferrite cores for memory. And not much memory at that. Their advantage was efficient utilization of the limited available resources.

The legacy plane25 or newer solid273 elements have this capability, but not the conventional plane183's. I doubt WB is set up for this.

I couldn't able to figure out a feasible way to apply nodal force to get realistic results. Is it really possible in Ansys Workbench? Any inputs would be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
