Abstract
Encapsulated invoking structural analysis can be carried out by using VB to realize the secondary development of ANSYS. Firstly, the parametric command flow file of the problem to be analyzed will be compiled, which is based on the exploitation capability of APDL of the finite element analysis software ANSYS. Then, the analysis of the structure will be automatically completed, through a convenient parameter inputting graphical user interface, combined with the compiled ANSYS parametric design language. Finally, the calculation results and graphics data in post-processor, which are obtained from the ANSYS, can form an analysis system of the problem through the coded by VB. This approach, which provides a new method for solving the similar problems and a new project for simulations in engineering and mechanics teaching, can improve the process of interaction and develop a more friendly and understanding parametric interface of analysis.
