Tiago Pomella Lobo of Karlsruhe Institute of Technology presents his PathAnalysis package for use with ACT in Ansys Mechanical. "This Ansys Mechanical extension that can be installed by anyone, adding a custom toolbar menu that can automatically find and create the shortest path between a pair of named Node and Surface, compute linearized (stress and temperature) solutions along those paths, and also export and delete those results. "

One of the most important skills in any programming language is knowing how to open text files and extract the data/information for your program. This is usually quite straightforward, but there are various aspects that may make it trickier than you initially suspect. This guide gives readers recipes they can build on, covering common situations and pointing out some common pitfalls.

Ansys Dynamic Reporting provides interactive and dynamic reports that can be embedded in any application, and the pydynamicreporting library allows easy access and control over the application. This quick guide provides steps to easily embed ADR into your application, allowing you to add powerful and modern looking reports to your application.

Effortless Visualization of Simulation Data and embed it with Modern Web Apps. The Ansys Fluent Visualization Python Module is a dynamic client library that allows you to produce visually captivating depictions of fluid dynamics simulations using Ansys Fluent.

Jupyter notebooks are a common Python instruction tool. This quick start shows how to use Jupyter notebooks in JupyterLab. 

This script tip is the second of a two part series that covers four examples of Python results for Ansys Mechanical by executing an Iron-python script based on the Data Processing Framework (DPF) post-processing toolbox.

In this post, we cover two examples of Python Results: (1) get the maximum over time of the total deformation; and, (2) get the average total deformation on all time steps.

This PyDPF example shows a simple way to plot a deformation result for four design points (DP) in the same window.
