Abstract
While structural calculations for materials used in human use were previously possible with complex formulas and equations, technological advances have now made it possible to perform these calculations easily and quickly. Computer-aided calculations provide significant benefits to today's engineering and contribute to our future. Finite element method (FEM)-based computer programs are used in many engineering disciplines and eliminate significant disadvantages such as time and cost in projects. This brings FEM-based computer programs to the forefront of engineering calculations. With its numerous features, ANSYS allows us to conduct studies on the behavior of materials under analysis, including buckling, bending, vibration and temperature. This study examines the benefits of using ANSYS for static and dynamic analyses of structural elements such as beams and plates, its contributions to calculations, and its potential contributions to the future of engineering.
