Hello everyone,

  I am using a commercial finite element package, ANSYS 4.4.A, 
for the simulation of transient thermal and structural response
of a component during welding.  I have a three-dimensional
model.  I am facing some problems with the structural analysis
part and would appreciate any help on this.

   - Has anyone used ANSYS for welding application?  Also, has
anyone seen any references on this?  If so, I would welcome
some discussion, suggestions, relevant literature or a critique of 
my simulation strategy.  I do not want to bother other net readers
with the exact nature of my problem,  so if you have anything
remotely connected to this please send me an e-mail.  

   - Different researchers have used other packages such as ABAQUS, 
ADINA etc., but I have not seen anyone using ANSYS.  Does it mean
that ANSYS is not particularly suited for welding analysis ?

   - Additionally, I have applied ANSYS for diffusion problems
and would also welcome any suggestions/discussion on this too. 

Thanks 

Rajesh Dighde
