Ansys Mechanical (Structural)
Better Simulation. More Confident Engineering Decisions
Explore structural simulation technology from Ansys through the team behind Oasys LS-DYNA Environment, an authorised Ansys Channel Partner with over 50 years of simulation experience and a long-standing heritage in the Ansys LS-DYNA community. We pride ourselves on understanding the challenges our customers face and have developed the right tools and services to support them.
Engineering expertise behind every simulation decision
For more than 30 years, Oasys LS-DYNA Environment has helped engineering teams solve complex simulation challenges. Today, alongside our own Oasys software suite, we provide access to selected Ansys technologies supported by practical engineering knowledge, technical support and customer enablement.
Developed by Arup Digital Products, our solutions draw on a long-standing engineering heritage and deep understanding of simulation workflows.
Advanced structural simulation for confident design decisions
Ansys Mechanical brings structural, thermal, acoustic, transient and nonlinear analysis into one connected simulation environment. It helps engineering teams explore product behaviour, assess design performance and evaluate multiple scenarios before committing to physical testing.
Key Capabilities
- Structural stress and deformation
- Thermal and thermal-stress analysis
- Fatigue and durability
- Vibration and modal analysis
- Nonlinear materials and contact
- Structural optimisation
- Connected Multiphysics workflows
