摘要：本文是ANSYSAQWAWorkbench12.0官方帮助文档，介绍AQWAWB图形化界面的操作与建模规范。文档说明软件基于DesignModeler几何建模，支持面/线/点质量、点浮力、圆盘单元，提供自动网格划分与局部加密功能。核心支持水动力绕射分析，可设置重力、波向、波频与结构选择，输出静水力、响应幅值算子（RAO）、压力与运动结果。文档给出传统AQWA命令与WB树对象的对照，明确建模规则、单元限制、结果查看与动画导出方法，为海洋结构物初期水动力仿真提供标准化操作指南。ANSYSAQWAWBHelpCopyrightandTrademarkInformation©2009SASIP,Inc.Allrightsreserved.Unauthorizeduse,distributionorduplicationisprohibited.ANSYS,ANSYSWorkbench,Ansoft,AUTODYN,EKM,EngineeringKnowledgeManager,CFX,FLUENT,HFSSandanyandallANSYS,Inc.brand,product,serviceandfeaturenames,logosandslogansareregisteredtrademarksortrademarksofANSYS,Inc.oritssubsidiariesintheUnitedStatesorothercountries.ICEMCFDisatrademarkusedbyANSYS,Inc.underlicense.CFXisatrademarkofSonyCorporationinJapan.Allotherbrand,product,serviceandfeaturenamesortrademarksarethepropertyoftheirrespectiveowners.DisclaimerNoticeTHISANSYSSOFTWAREPRODUCTANDPROGRAMDOCUMENTATIONINCLUDETRADESECRETSANDARECONFIDENTIALANDPROPRIETARYPRODUCTSOFANSYS,INC.,ITSSUBSIDIARIES,ORLICENSORS.Thesoftwareproductsanddocument-ationarefurnishedbyANSYS,Inc.,itssubsidiaries,oraffiliatesunderasoftwarelicenseagreementthatcontainspro-visionsconcerningnon-disclosure,copying,lengthandnatureofuse,compliancewithexportinglaws,warranties,disclaimers,limitationsofliability,andremedies,andotherprovisions.Thesoftwareproductsanddocumentationmaybeused,disclosed,transferred,orcopiedonlyinaccordancewiththetermsandconditionsofthatsoftwarelicenseagreement.ANSYS,Inc.iscertifiedtoISO9001:2008.U.S.GovernmentRightsForU.S.Governmentusers,exceptasspecificallygrantedbytheANSYS,Inc.softwarelicenseagreement,theuse,du-plication,ordisclosurebytheUnitedStatesGovernmentissubjecttorestrictionsstatedintheANSYS,Inc.softwarelicenseagreementandFAR12.212(fornon-DODlicenses).Third-PartySoftwareSeethelegalinformationintheproducthelpfilesforthecompleteLegalNoticeforANSYSproprietarysoftwareandthird-partysoftware.IfyouareunabletoaccesstheLegalNotice,pleasecontactANSYS,Inc.PublishedintheU.S.A.AQWAWBIntroductionAQWAWBisagraphicalinterfaceforAQWA.ItisusedtocreateanelementbasedmodelfromgeometrydefinedinDesignModelerformat,applyAQWAspecificinputandviewresults.ThelayoutissimilartootherWorkbenchbasedapplications(e.g.Mechanical)andcomprisesanumberofobjectsinatreebasedlayout.Foradescriptionofaparticulartreeobject,selectalinkfrombelow.IfyouareanexistingAQWAuser,thenyoumayalsofindthe"InformationforexistingAQWAusers"(p.3)ausefulcomparisonofcapabilitiesanddefinitionmethodology.Eachiteminthetreeisacommandobject,thepropertiesoftheseareusedtocontroltheanalysisandviewtheresults,eachtypehasadifferentfunctionandtheirabilitiesaredescribedhere.Mostofthesetreeobjectscanbeselectedandthentherightmousebuttonusedtomodifycommonfunctions,alsothisbuttoncanbeusedtoaddadditionalobjects,suchasmassesorresultviews.Alternativelythedynamictoolbarcanbeusedforaddingadditionalobjects.Thereareanumberofadditionalbuttonsthatalsocontroltheview.Table1DefinitionoftreeobjectsInformationforexistingAQWAusersIfyouarefamiliarwiththeAQWAdatafilesandhelpsystem,thenyoucanusethissectiontofindwhereanexistingcommandislocatedintheAQWAWBtreeobjects.Table1CrossreferenceoftreeobjectswithAQWAcommandsGeneralmodellingrequirementsDesignModeleristhetoolusedforcreatinggeometryforAQWAWB,forimportinggeometrycreatedinDesignModeler,seetheGeometrysection.WhenusingDesignModelertodefinethegeometrythereareanumberofaspectsthatyoushouldconsidertoensurethatyourmodelissuitableforanalysiswithAQWA,suchas:Ensurethatthemodelissplitatthewaterline,importorcreateeachstructureandthenuseaplanetosplitthesurfacebodiesatthewaterlevelWhenusinglinestocreatebeams,onlytubularsectionsaresupportedinAQWAWB,allothersectionswillresultinastubelementbeingformedandyouwillneedtodefineadditionalinformationinAQWAWBEachvessel/structureshouldbeapart,soallthebodiesthatyouhaveshouldbegroupedviathemultibodypartfacility.Note,thereisnotthepossibilitytorenamethesewithinAQWAWBAQWAWBInterfaceOverviewAQWAWBfollowstheconventionsusedinotherANSYSWorkbenchproductswhereitisappropriateforAQWA.Theuserinterfacehasanumberofkeyareas,butistreedriven.Alongwiththetreeandit'sdetailspanearetoolbarsandgraphical/textdisplaywindowsThetoolbarusesanumberofstandardWorkbenchiconsalongwithanumberofspecialistAQWAWBadditions.Thetreeandthedetailsarewheretheobjectsthatareusedtodefinethemodellingrequirementsareor-ganised.Dependingupontheselectioninthetree,adetailpane,normallylocatedbelowthetreewillshowthedetailsoftheselectedobject.Thereiseitheroneortwootherwindowsshown,dependinguponthestateoftheanalysisortreeitemthatisselected,firstlythemainwindow,thisgenerallyshowsthemodel(eithergeometryormeshviews)and,ifyouareviewingHydrostaticsresults,thepropertiestabisenabledfortextbasedresults.Thesecondarywindowisusedfordisplayingmessages,controltheresultsanddisplayinggraphs.Thiswillappearautomat-ically,dependinguponthetreeitemselected.ProjectUsethistoenterincustominformationabouttheauthorandanyreferencesordescriptionforthisanalysis.Informationaboutthecreationdateofthefileandwhenitwaslastmodifiedisalsoautomaticallysaved.Thisdataisalsowrit
