Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is a method to simulate loading
and boundary conditions on a structure and determine the structures
response to those conditions. The structure is modeled using
discrete elements and nodes. Each element is composed of
approximate equations that describe the element response to a
certain load. The response of all the elements in the model
provides the total response of the structure. The elements of the
model have a finite number of unknowns and thus designated as
Finite Elements. ANSYS is one of the most popular finite element
software packages available in the market and used by engineers in
virtually all fields of engineering. ANSYS/Multiphysics is the
flagship ANSYS product which includes all capabilities in all
engineering disciplines.
This two-day course is designed to train professionals and
students on the use of the Traditional ANSYS Graphical User
Interface. Students will learn how to perform linear static stress,
thermal, and thermal-stress analysis. The course also includes an
overview of the ANSYS capabilities and emphasizes on model
definition with the ANSYS preprocessor. The course will consist of
lectures, tutorials, and in class exercises.
The objective of this introductory course is to teach ANSYS
basics in the following areas:
Introduction Finite Element Terminology/Background
ANSYS Basics/ Graphical User Interface
Static Stress Analysis (1D, 2D and 3D)

Dr. Rami Hawileh is an Associate Professor of Civil Engineering
at the American University of Sharjah, UAE. He has been with AUS
since August 2007 as an Assistant Professor. Before that, he was a
structural analyst at AREVA NP INC., An AREVA and Siemens Company,
Lynchburg, Virginia, USA (2006-2007). He was lecturer at the
University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA
(2005-2006) and Milwaukee School of Engineering, Milwaukee,
Wisconsin, USA (2003-2006). He was a structural engineer at the
Austin Company, Schaumber, IL, USA (2000-2001). Dr. Hawileh has a
PhD from the University of Wisconsin at Milwaukee (2005), an MS
from Bradley University (2000), and a BSc from Birzeit University
(1998), all in civil engineering with emphasis on structures. His
research interests include strengthening and computational modeling
of reinforced concrete structures subjected to fire and cyclic
loading. He has published over 20 peer-reviewed papers in
international journals. He has also published over 30 articles in
International Conference proceedings and given numerous
presentations on finite element modeling of structural concrete
members strengthened with FRP laminates when subjected to static,
cyclic, and fire loading.
