In Finite Element Analysis (FEA), we talk about Axisymmetric, Plane Stress and Plane Strain problems (see image below for examples). . If the study qualifies, the advantage of a 2D analysis over 3D in these cases is a faster solution time with an even higher accuracy if you use a finer mesh. In this webinar, you will see the requirements and benefits of 2D analysis, and how to setup a SOLIDWORKS Simulation study using 2D Simplification. A quick technical tip and a few industry examples are also discussed towards the end of this webinar presentation.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\">\u003Cimg
