ANSYS Composite



ANSYS Composite PrepPost empowers you to efficiently model the most complex composite structures and, at the same time, fully understand the potential failure of product models. Working in a low-risk virtual environment, you subject your product designs to simple physical stresses and compute progressive damage, delamination and cracking.

Composite materials are created by combining two or more layered materials, each with different properties. These materials have become a standard for products that are both light and strong. Composites provide enough flexibility so products with complex shapes, such as boat hulls and surfboards, can be easily manufactured.

Engineering layered composites involves complex definitions that include numerous layers, materials, thicknesses and orientations. The engineering challenge is to predict how well the finished product will perform under real-world working conditions. This involves considering stresses and deformations as well as a range of failure criteria. ANSYS Composite PrepPost provides all necessary functionalities for the analysis of layered composite structures.
