We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Hello,

Why would you like to use solid226 for your Fluid and Structure Interaction analysis?

If you check this doc link https://ansyshelp.ansys.com/account/secured?returnurl=/Views/Secured/corp/v241/en/ans_elem/Hlp_E_SOLID226.html?q=solid226 this element is used to couple structural with thermal/electric analysis. It is not used for coupling structures with fluids.Â
