Engineers capable of analyzing the dynamic response of structures would benefit from this two-day course focusing on modal, harmonic and transient dynamic analysis. Upon completion, analysts should be able to:

calculate natural frequencies and mode shapes of linear elastic structures (modal analysis)
analyze the response of structures under the action of time-varying loads (transient analyses)
analyze the response of structures with loads varying sinusoidally (harmonic response analyses)

Prerequisite: ANSYS Mechanical APDL Part I Introduction.

Course Topics Include:

Modal Analysis (definition & purpose, terminology & concepts, procedure)
Harmonic Analysis
Transient Dynamic Analysis
Restarting an Analysis
Spectrum Analysis
Mode Superposition
Modal Analysis - Advanced Topics (prestressed modal analysis, modal cyclic symmetry, large deflection modal analysis)

Each course chapter is followed by "hands-on" workshops and exercises.
