SOLIDWORKS 2017 SimulationXpress Course
SOLIDWORKS lets you design just about any product you can imagine. However, it isn’t always clear whether the product will meet the demands it will face in real life. Computer-based design validation, like SOLIDWORKS Simulation, has changed this approach. Instead of manufacturing and testing real parts, you can validate design virtually before committing resources to prototyping. This approach improves product design early in the development process and reduces the number of prototypes necessary, resulting in shorter, less costly design cycle time.
Sample Lesson – SOLIDWORKS SimulationXpress – Applying Fixtures
SOLIDWORKS SimulationXpress is a first-pass validation tool that’s easy to use and doesn’t require you to be an expert in Finite Element Analysis (FEA) or Design Validation. SimulationXpress lets you test models and predicts how they’ll behave in real life situations. Like any other tool, you have to learn how and when to use it.
In this course, we’ll go through each of the steps in the SimulationXpress wizard so you have a full understanding of how to test your models. We’ll go through step-by-step instructions for running a study and optimizing a part to meet design criteria.
By the end of the course, you’ll learn how to apply fixtures, add external loads, and set the material in order to run a study. We’ll also take a look at how to interpret the analysis results, generate a report, and optimize the design.
