For the first time, we are working on connecting the proven SIMULIA Abaqus technology to SOLIDWORKS Simulation in a new product called SIMULIA Structural Simulation Engineer and we’re interested in your feedback.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>What is SIMULIA Simulation Engineer?\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>SIMULIA Simulation Engineer is a new FEA structural analysis software solution that integrates the workflow from SOLIDWORKS desktop with Abaqus technology on the cloud based 3DEXPERIENCE platform. With the new Simulation Connector, SIMULIA Structural Simulation Engineer looks to deliver a unique, easy and seamless workflow for SOLIDWORKS Simulation users to expand and reuse their existing simulations with an advanced scalable solution.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>What are the benefits?\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The SOLIDWORKS Add-in (the Simulation Connector) will transfer your geometry and SOLIDWORKS Simulation setup (material, loads, boundary conditions, mesh definition…) straight to 3DEXPERIENCE to run with the Abaqus solver. This will limit the need to redefine what has already been set up in SOLIDWORKS Simulation. Once on the cloud, you have access to the Abaqus\u002FStandard solver and its advanced simulation features like; General Contact, increased element types to choose from, advanced meshing using quad or hex elements, and reliable solutions for combined nonlinearities such as contact with nonlinear materials and large deformation. You can also take advantage of more memory and multi-core scaling with Abaqus and have the option to execute on cloud.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\">\u003Cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"825\" height=\"373\" src=\"https:\u002F\u002Fblog-assets.solidworks.com\u002Fuploads\u002F2025\u002F12\u002Fsim_eng_1218.png.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-31310\" srcset=\"https:\u002F\u002Fblog-assets.solidworks.com\u002Fuploads\u002F2025\u002F12\u002Fsim_eng_1218.png.webp 825w, https:\u002F\u002Fblog-assets.solidworks.com\u002Fuploads\u002F2025\u002F12\u002Fsim_eng_1218-300x136.png.webp 300w, https:\u002F\u002Fblog-assets.solidworks.com\u002Fuploads\u002F2025\u002F12\u002Fsim_eng_1218-768x347.png.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 825px) 100vw, 825px\" \u002F>\u003C\u002Ffigure>\u003Cp>Is it currently available?
