A feature that allows you to limit the output of the result to a specific geometry or load step and reduce the size of the result file.

Allows Workbench users to easily import CAD into the CFDPost application

Easily convert your APDL command objects / snippets into working ACT extensions. Make it easy to create your own custom apps with your own specific APDL code [Contains source code]

Apply a contact compressive only support with possibility to change contact settings (keyopts and real constants)

A powerful tool that provides an alternative to Ansys WB’s built-in compressive support boundary condition. The functionality of Ansys Classic has been transferred to the WB environment so that the user can control all compressive support parameters in a user-friendly way. This is the second version of the extension where the user can choose between two different types of contact elements. The user can choose between CONTA174 and CONTA178 and a full spectrum of advanced settings such as: Contact algorithm, Detection method, Stiffness and many others. Thanks to this extension, advanved analyses using compressive support can be performed without the need to create additional macros, directly from Ansys WB menu. This tool has two contact support definitions: based on 174 element and based on 178 element. User has to decide which option is better in his/her model. Act app has much more options then compression only support in Ansys Workbench.

This tool enables the user to edit the "enable"/"disable" setting of the contact step control and display it in a table using spreadsheet software such as Excel.
