I have already made a 3D printed PLA part using FDM method and now I want to do a FEA(FEM) simulation of tensile test. Can anyone guide me which software I must chose and what is the procedure?
first, you need to install Ansys Additive Suite
and watch this video it will clear the vision for you Insha Allah

and this is one of the best:

using Ansys for instance, you simple create your models by the same geometry as the ones you used to print, then input same material properties in the element set up stage. you can choose various meshing styles. does your model have any form of stress concentration feature?
