Features: This book introduces the basic principles of the finite element method, a commonly used numerical simulation method in engineering, in a clear and concise manner. Building on this foundation, it comprehensively and systematically presents the use of the internationally popular large-scale general-purpose numerical simulation software ANSYS, which integrates structural analysis, thermal analysis, fluid analysis, and more. The content includes static structural analysis, dynamic analysis, nonlinear structural analysis, thermal analysis, computational fluid dynamics analysis, coupled field analysis, optimization design, reliability analysis, and other advanced ANSYS analysis techniques, as well as basic ANSYS usage methods. This book can serve as a textbook and reference for senior undergraduate and graduate students, as well as instructors in universities and colleges majoring in mechanics, mechanical engineering, civil engineering, and related fields, to learn the finite element method and master the ANSYS software. It can also be used as a reference for engineering technicians engaged in scientific research and product development in fields such as nuclear industry, railways, mechanical engineering, transportation, civil engineering, and aerospace, who use the finite element method for design.
