Free lessons from Skill-Lync's Structural Analysis using Ansys Workbench course. The first three lessons (8 videos) cover the strength-of-materials and finite element theory behind FEA, then your first models in Ansys SpaceClaim and Mechanical, including a cantilever beam result checked against a hand calculation.

Free lesson 1 · 39 minStrength of Materials for FEA: Stress, Strain and Principal StressesWhat will you learn in the free Ansys Workbench lessons?
- Stress, strain, the stress-strain curve, Hooke's law, Poisson's ratio and Young's modulus from an FEA point of view
- Principal stresses and Mohr's circle, with a worked example
- What the finite element method does inside the software: discretisation, element types, degrees of freedom
- Fully integrated vs under-integrated elements and why a CST element has constant strain
- Ansys SpaceClaim basics, a first static structural run in Ansys Mechanical, and validating FEA against an analytical cantilever result

- Lesson 1 · 39 minStrength of Materials for FEA: Stress, Strain and Principal StressesThe course overview and the strength-of-materials ideas every FEA engineer relies on: stress and strain, the stress-strain curve, Hooke's law, Poisson's ratio, Young's modulus, elasticity and plasticity, and principal stresses, ending with a Mohr's circle worked example for an element under combined normal and shear stress.
Lesson 2 · 74 min · 3 partsMohr's Circle and the Finite Element Method ExplainedThree parts: Mohr's circle for stresses on any plane, then what the finite element method actually does inside FEA software (numerical methods, discretisation, element types, degrees of freedom), and finally fully integrated versus under-integrated elements and the strain-displacement matrix behind the constant strain triangle.
Lesson 3 · 85 min · 4 partsAnsys SpaceClaim and Workbench Basics: First Static and Modal RunsFour parts that move from theory into Ansys: a recap of the FEA concepts, building and splitting bodies in Ansys SpaceClaim, a first static structural problem in Ansys Mechanical, a cantilever beam (1 m, 100 N) solved by FEA and checked against the analytical deflection, and a simple modal analysis to check connectivity.
Which lessons of Structural Analysis using Ansys Workbench are free?
The first 3 lessons are free on Grow by Skill-Lync: 3 h 19 min of video from Skill-Lync's Structural Analysis using Ansys Workbench course that you can watch here with no sign-up or payment (as of 15 Nov 2026). The full course is paid (₹40,000); its other 7 lessons are listed in the outline below so you can see what each one covers.
