Multiphysics Simulation using Directly Coupled-Field Element
Technology - ANSYS
As companies strive to produce innovative and higher quality
products, simulation of individual physics is no longer adequate
for the design of many products. Engineers and designers are
continuing to employ Multiphysics simulation to evaluate their
designs operating under real-world conditions.
This presentation by ANSYS, Inc. will focus on directly
coupled-field element technology. Coupled-field elements can
be used to solve many different types of Multiphysics
problems. Analysis examples include: thermal-electric
coupling, Piezoelectricity, Piezoresistivity,
thermal-electric-structural coupling, and electroelasticity to cite
a few examples. Physics coupling is accounted for by
calculating the appropriate element matrices (matrix coupling) or
element load vectors (load vector coupling) to account for the
interaction between the different physics disciplines. Many
products including; transducers, sensors, micro-electromechanical
systems, thermoelectric coolers and electronic devices require a
coupled-field simulation and can utilize coupled-field element
technology.
The presentation will also highlight a number of real-world
examples and customer applications to demonstrate the industry
application of the coupled-field element technology. Senior
development staff members from ANSYS, Inc. will also be available
to address any questions about coupled-field elements and
Multiphysics solution technology.
Coupled-Field Simulation - Wilcoxon Research
Wilcoxon Research is the world leading manufacturer of
accelerometers, shakers, and underwater acoustic sensors for
industrial and military applications. Most of our transducer
designs are piezoelectric based. To design and analyze a
piezoelectric sensor requires a coupled-field simulation. Two
examples are given in this presentation to demonstrate how we
extract the characteristics of a piezoelectric sensor by using
ANSYS Multiphysics. The simulation examples involve piezoelectric
and acoustic-structural coupled-field elements. Predicting
the performance of a sensor greatly benefits the product design and
development.
