FII\ITE ELEME,NT METHOT)
I rrtroductit;n:-
Mathematically. the finite eletrent method (FEM) is used for finding approxitnate
solution of Partial Differential Equations (PDE) as well as of Integral equations such as the heat
transport equation. The solution approach is based either on eliminating the differential equation
cornpleteh, (steadl' state problerns), or rendering the PDE into an equivalent ordinary differenti4_l
qcl-Uqlialt" which is then solved r-rsing standard techniques such as finite ditl'erences, etc.
In solving Partial Differential Ecluations, the primary challenge is to create an equation

tvhich approximates the equation to bc studied, but which is numerically stable, meaning that
cl'rors irl the ittput data and interurediate calculations do not accuurulate and cause the resulting
outpttt to be rneauingless. There are many ways of doing this, all with advantages and
disadvantages. The Finite Elernent Method is a good choice for solving parlial differential
equations over compiex domains (like cars and oil pipelines) or when the desired precision varies
over the entire dornain. F'or instance, in simulating the weather pattern on Earth, it is more
intportant to harze acculate preclictions over land than over the wide-open sea, a dernand that is
achievable using the finite element method.
Finite element analvsis

lrinite Elenteut Analysis (FEA) is a computer simulation technique used in engineering
analysis. It r"tses a riur.nerical technique called the finite element rnethod (FEM). In general, there
are three phases in any computer-aided engineering task: . Pre-processing - defining the finite
elerlent model ancl environmental 1-actors to be applied to it. . Analysis solver (solution of finite
clement moclel) ' Post-processing of results (using visualization tools)

GENERIC STEPS TO SOLVING ANY PROBLEM II\

A1\SYS
Introduction:-
It is r-rot alrvays possible to obtain the exact analytical solution at any location in
the bocly, especially fbr those elemenls having complex shapes or geometries. Always lvhat
matters are the boundary conditions and material properlies. In such cases, the analytical soh-rtion
that satisfies lhe governing equation or gives extreme values for the governing functional is
dilficLrlt to obtain. Hence for most oI'the practical problems, the engineers resort to numerical
nrethods like tire finite element methocl to obtain approximate but most probable solutions.
Finite element procedures are at present very widely used in engineering analysis.
T'he procedures ale ernployecl extensivc'l-v in the analysis of solids and structures and of heat
transl'er and fiuids. and indeed. finite element methods are useful in virtually every field of'
enginecring analysis.
Description of the method:-

In anv analysis u,e always select a mathematical model of a physical problem, and
thcn r'i'e solve lhat nTociel. Although the finite element method is employed to solve very complex
rt'iathematical rnodels, bLrt it is important to realize that the finite element solution can never give
more infonlation tiran that contained in the mathematical model.
ilhysical problems, mathcmatical models, and the finite clcmcnt

.;ul tt iiuti
fhe physical problem typically involvqs an actual structure or structural component
subjected to cefiain loads. The idealization of the physical problem to a mathematical model
requires certain assumptions that together lead to differential equations governing the
tnatherratical model. 'fLrc 1'rnite eleu.ient analysis solves this mathematical model. Since the finite
elemeitt solutron tecl-rnique is a numerical procedure, it is necessary to access the solution

accuracy. lf the accuracy criteria are not met, the numerical solution has to be repeated rvith
ref-rned solution parameters (such as finer meshes) until a sufhcient accuracy is reached.
Pagc 2
It is clcar that the finite element solution will solve only the selecred mathematical model
and that ail assumptions in this model will be reflected in the predicted response. Hence, the
cl.roice of an appropriate mathematic'al model is crucial and completely determines the insight
into tl're actual phy'sicaI problcnt that rve tibtain by the analysis.
Once the mathenatical model has been solved accurately and the results have been
interpreted, we may well decide to consider next a refined mathematical model in ordel tcr
increase our insight into the response of the physical problem. Further more, a change in the
ph1''sical probiem ntav be necessar)'. and this in turn will also lead to additional mathematical
nrociels ancl fitite elenrent solutions. Fig.l. depicts the process of finite element analysis. The key
step in engineering analysis is therefore choosing appropriate mathematical models. These
models will clearly be selected depencling on what phenomena are to be predicted.

The ftnite element rnethod is a technique in which a given domain is represented as a
coliection of simple domains, called frnite elements. The following are the three basic features of

the f,rnite element method.
- a) Division o./ whole into parl.s'; rvhich allows representation of geometrically complex domains

COMPUTER lTIDED MODELING AND ANALYSIS
Steps followed in ANSYS program:-

The three important steps in ANSYS programming are:
a) Preprocessing
b) Solr-rtion
c) Post-processing
u) Preprocessing:'Ihis phase consists of making available the input data such as geometly,
material properties, meshing olthe model. boundary conditions and has the following steps:
1) Set up: Het'e we enter the analysis type, the material properties, and the geometry (i.e.
prepare tl-re model). The rnodel may be built parametrically or a model from other software
paclia-qe can be in-rportccl.
2) Create FE n-roclel: In this step r,ve divide the total volume into small simple regular
voltttnes, which can be easily meshed. Then we define the mesh size for each small volurne by
virtr-rally dividing all the edges of the smalI volume into same divisions.
3) Loaciing: ln this step the boirndarl'conditions are imposed, i.e. forces and constraints, on
the nrodel are defineci.
b) Solution: In this phase a solver is used to solve the basic equation for the analysis type and to
compute the results. This phase is tahen care by the software programme. In the solution process,
the solver goes throLrgh fbllowing steps to compute the solution for a steady state analysis,
i) Iiormulate elcment matrices,
2) Assen:bly and triangularise the overall stiffness matrix,
3) calculate the solLrtion by bacl< slrbstitntion,
4) Conrpute the stresses. displaoements, etc.
c) Postproces,sing. This is the phase lvhere the results are reviewed for the analysis done, by
obtair-ring graphic displays, vector-plots and tabular reports of stress and displacement, etc.

Lihe solving an)' problen-r analytically. you need to define (1) your solution domain, (2)
the phvsical model, (3) boundary conditions and (a) the physical properties. You then solve the
problem and present the results. In numerical methods, the main difference is an extra step called
mesh generation. This is the step that divides the complex model into small elements that
become solvable iu an otherr,vise too complex situation. Below describes the processes ilr
ierminology slightl,v ntol'e attulte to the sofiware.
Builtl Ceometry:-
Llotrstruct a two or three dimensional representation of the object to be modeled and

! Define Material Properties:-
Now tl-rat the palt exists, define a library of the necessary materials that compose the
object (or project) being n.iodelecl. T'his includes thermal and mechanical properties.
Generate Mesh:-
At this point ANSYS understancls the makeup of the part. Now define how tl-re modeled
system should be broken down irrto finite pieces.
Apply Loads:-
Once the system is fully designed, the last task is to burden the system with constraints,
such as phl,sicai loadings or boundary conditions.
Cbtain Solution:-
'firis is actually a step, because ANSYS needs to understand within
what state (steady
state, transient... etc.) the problem must be solved.
Present the Results:-
Atier the solutiotr has been obteLined, there are many ways to present ANSYS' results,
choose liorn many options such as tables, glaphs, and contour plots.

FE MESH GE,NERATIOI{
Afier validation of the model rrext step is generation of Finite Element Mesh. For the casing
SOLID elements are used tbl meshing. A very f-rne mesh creates the hardware space oroblem because
the computations become voluminous. As the number of nodes increases, the total degrees of
freedom of the model increases Hence a designer has to model it optimally i.e. placing fine mesh
onl,v at critical area. anc'l coarse mesh at other. So that the run time is less and also the accuracy
is nut rrrrch affect.'il.

The various types of solid elements are shown in the Fig.2. Each element type has its own
properties depending upon its geometrical shape.

Mesh generation:-
Entroduction:
In order to carry out a finite element analysis, the model we are using must be divided
into a number of srnall pieces known as f-rnite elements. Since the model is divided into a number
oi discrete parts. FEA can be described as a discretization technique. In simple terms, a
ntatltematicai net or "rnesh" is required to carry out a finite element analysis. If the system under
investigation is 1D in rrature. we nrav use line elements to represent our geometry and to carr\r
ot"tt our anal,vsis. If the problem can be described in two dimensions, then a 2D mesh is reqtiired.
(iorrespottdingly, if the problern is complex and a 3D representation of the continuum is
rcclr"rirc-d. then lve nse a 3D mesh.
Arca meshing:-
Area elements can be triangular or quadrilateral in shape. The selection of the element
shape and order is based otr considerations relating to the complexity of the geometry and the
n.ttllre of tite problent being modcled. Membrane elements don't have any thickness. As a
corlseqllence they have no bending stiffness; loads can only be carried in the element plane. Plate
& Shell eiements are used to model thin walled regions in 3D space. The plate element is
forrnulated around plate theory. u,hich assLrmes that the load is carried via bending. Shell
elemcrtts are usecl to model shells, where there is combination of flexure & membrane action.
Plate elet-nents are considered applicable where the out of plane distortion is little more than the
plate thickness. There are also special elements,.which facilitate accurate modeling of thick
plates. If the deflection is greater than the plate thickness, membranes action should be
considered, and so shell elements should be used. Shell element nodes have five degrees of
h'eeciotn; tl're missing is the in-plane rotational lreedom (sometimes referred to as the drilling
lieedon'r). Solid elements come in diiferent varieties. Axis symmetric elements are used to
describe the cross-section of an axially symmetric parI. Plane strain elements are used to describe
section of long ob.iects (such as a shaft or wall cross-section). The strain in the out-of-plane
clirection is taken to bc zero, rcl'lcctins the assumption that the strain is in one Plnne strcss

PLANE42 is used fbr 2-D modeling of solid structures. The element can be used either as
a plane element (plane stress or plane strain) or as an axisymmetric element. The element is
deflned by four nodes having two clegrees of freedom at each node: translations in the nodal x
and y directions. The element has plasticity, creep, swelling, stress stiffening, large deflection,
and large strain capabilities shown in fig.beiow.

Volumc meshing:-
3D elements take the form of cubes called hexahedrons (hexes), 3D triangles called
tctrahedrons (tets) and iD u,edges lmown as pentahedrons. Decisions on element selection
hinge on understanding the role of the element shape and order of interpolation.
Modeling with 3D-Elements is t1're most llexible approach. These types of elements are
