ANSYS Application Customization Toolkit (ANSYS ACT) rev.01062022

The software developer Ansys has unveiled ANSYS ACT (rev.01062022) is a customizations bundle of the ANSYS Application Customization Toolkit (ANSYS ACT) software family of products that empowers users to create extensions that integrate a set of customized features with the standard application.

The ANSYS Customization Toolkit (ANSYS ACT) is designed to allow customization at the application level directly in the Workbench and Mechanical GUI, hence giving users the possibility to create extensions that integrate a set of customized features with the standard application.

These customizations include specialized pre and post processing features without compiling external code or linking with existing ANSYS libraries. This can be in the form of custom load features, element options and element creation or results evaluation to calculate unique scalar or vector results.

Ultimately, this allows users to create new features with identical behavior and integration as a standard Workbench feature. The goal is to be able to insert specific needs within one general process in an easy and efficient way, filling the gap between basic scripting and software development.
