AN ONLINE COMMUNITY FOR ANSYS USERS

Where expertise is grown


WELCOME

Welcome to the XANSYS Mailing List, a place for the ANSYS user community to
exchange ideas and help each other be more productive. The XANSYS community has
existed on several list servers over the years and has grown in size and content
as it has moved.

As Ansys has grown from the original single program to dozens of products
covering a wide range of physics, this list has remained a safe place for
day-to-day users to ask questions, share expertise, and grumble now and then.

XANSYS is like any other community, you get out of it what you put in.


INFORMATION


BEHAVIOR

The list is entirely maintained and policed by users, and the majority of users
are engineering professionals who use this as a tool in their work. As such,
their are some very specific rules and guidelines for how to interact on this
list. Before you post or reply please review the rules. Abuses are usually dealt
with by prompt removal from the list.


MEMBERSHIP

Membership is open to legal users of the ANSYS software products. To join, visit
the subscription page.


THE RULES 


INTRODUCTION

This documents sets out the way users are expected to behave on XANSYS. It is
essential that you read this document before subscribing or posting. Ignorance
of the contents of this document will not be an acceptable excuse. 


WHO CAN JOIN XANSYS AND POST MESSAGES

 XANSYS is a closed group and all members are required to subscribe and
demonstrate a basic level of competence in using ANSYS. Membership is a
privilege, not a right and membership will be rapidly removed from those who do
not conform to these guidelines. Membership is not available to users in
countries where it is not possible to possess a properly licensed copy of
ANSYS. 

When posting to the list (or applying for membership) you must not use an
anonymous email address (i.e. yahoo, hotmail, gmail, rediffmail, sohu, 126 etc.
addresses are not acceptable). The address must be your currently subscribed
address and you must state your full name and company (or university)
affiliation. 

Any attempt to purchase, sell, or even inquire about "bootleg", "cracked",
illegal versions of the ANSYS program, or other illegal activities, will result
in immediate banning. 


BEFORE POSTING

Before posting your question to the list consider using these other resources
first (Not necessarily in this order) : 

 * The ANSYS documentation. 
 * The person in the cube next to you. 
 * Another local expert. 
 * The ANSYS web site http://www.ansys.com 
 * The XANSYS archive at: http://www.xansys.org/mailman/private/xansys 
 * Your ASC (ANSYS Support Coordinator - some sites have these.)
 *  Your Channel Partner (ANSYS Support Distributor). 

If you do not regularly post to technical forums such as this then you are
strongly recommended to read "How To Ask Questions The Smart Way:"

www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html 

Also, please take a look at Guy Kawasaki's blog entry on writing an effective
e-mail:

blog.guykawasaki.com/2006/02/the_effective_e.html 


HOW TO POST 

The only acceptable language is English. We will make allowance for those whose
native tongue is not English but we do expect people to make an effort to post
in a standard English style. Posters who do not use punctuation and
capitalization can expect to be criticized.

 Please post messages, questions, requests to the mailing list ONLY
(xansys@xansys.org). Subscribers should not send unsolicited emails directly to
other members, unless mutually agreed upon. 

Select a title for your post with care so that it gives users an indication of
your problem. To help people filter through the large number of posts please
start your subject line with one of the following KEYWORDS. The text will have
to be exact to work. The advantage to you is that specialists in these areas may
also filter to give special attention to these topics! 

 * [ADMIN] Messages from the list and server administrators
 * [APDL] APDL macros, user programmable features, TCL/TK scripts, abbreviations
   etc. 
 * [CFD] FLUENT, CFX and FLOTRAN CFD related posts 
 * [DM] Post about DesignModeler 
 * [DYNM] Modal, harmonic, transient, rigid body and flexible dynamics 
 * [EMAG] High and low frequency electromagnetics 
 * [JOB] ANSYS related employment opportunities 
 * [OT] (Off Topic) Anything such as jokes that is considered worthy of posting
   but isn't strictly relevant to ANSYS
 * [OTHER] Everything else that does fall into a category above. Any general
   ANSYS related posts 
 * [SYS] Questions about computers, installation, OS's, etc...
 * [PHYS] Multiphysics problems including fluid-structure interaction (FSI) 
 * [STRUC] Structural, modal, and other vibration analysis 
 * [THERM] Heat transfer related posts 
 * [CFD] Computation Fluid Dynamics 
 * [WB] Post that cover Workbench modules 

Do not post the same question repeatedly. If nobody is answering then either
nobody knows the answer, you aren't following the requirements of this Netiqutte
document or you haven't asked the question in a sensible way. You can not send
attachments to the list. 

Short extracts (up to 100 lines) from log files pasted into the body of a
message are acceptable. 

If appropriate use "reply" to keep the same subject line. It helps those who can
thread incoming messages to group the thread. 

When replying to a post remove excess quoted text to reduce the size of the
message; leave just enough to preserve context. 

If a question generates a lot of responses suggesting different methods, the
person who posted the original question should provide some feedback indicating
which of the methods was most successful and why. 


ALL POSTS SHOULD INCLUDE: 

 * A clear statement of the problem.
 * A summary of what you have done to date to try and resolve the problem. 
 * Your full name and company (or university of a student) 


INFORMATION YOU PROBABLY WANT TO INCLUDE: 

 * The version of ANSYS you are using 
 * The computer type and operating system
 *  Whether you are using a university or a commercial license 


CONCLUDING A POST:

It is very helpful to people searching an archive for a poster to conclude a
thread by summarizing what suggestions worked and which did not. It is also nice
to thank those who took the time to help you.


THANK YOU!
