1. The videos have a maximum resolution of 1920x1080 (HD).

2. To reduce file size, the project files were saved with Workbench GUI command /File/Archive...; i.e., they are in WBPZ compressed format.  To open a compressed project file, please use  Workbench GUI command /File/Restore Archive...

3. The project files are to be used with ANSYS15 (or later); they are not to be used with ANSYS14 or earlier versions.

4. It is suggested that, whenever a project file is needed to start up an exercise, you use a project file provided here, rather than your own finished project file, so that your numerical results would be more consistent with those in the textbook.
