Copyright ANSYS, Inc. 2014Structural & Fluids Solver Capability

1. Multiple Features: These academic products are defined by multiple license features bundled together into a single license key. The individual academic products have in the range of 25 - 50 license features each, the campus solution bundles have approximately 250 license features.

Thus it is not practical to show the license features in this table. Please contacts your ANSYS Academic sales person or ANSYS Academic product technical support if you require these details.

2. Product names in gray itallic marked legacy are no longer available for sale, but are shown for completeness. In most cases the capabilities of these legacy products have simply been absorbed into other academic products.

Some product capabilities (columns) are also in grey itallic and marked legacy, such capabilities are still available for the products indicated, but have either been superseded by more modern/alternate methods within the same or different academic products.
