SOLIDWORKS Simulation
Cleaner Water Out of Simulation and Into the World
The earth is covered by nearly 71 percent water. Of that 71 percent, only about 2.5 percent is clean enough to drink. That being said, only 1 percent is actually easily accessible. The rest of it is confined to glaciers
... ContinuedSOLIDWORKS Simulation: Mechanism Design
Designing mechanisms is a comparatively challenging task and needs fair amount of expertise. Normally designers use past experience, existing designs or manual sketches to conclude on a working mechanism. And ultimately they need to create multiple prototypes to ensure their
... ContinuedSimulating Fatigue Failure: It’s Like 1,000 Punches from My Grandmother!
When creating a product, every designer has a handful of questions in mind: Will my design withstand the warranty period for which it has been designed? Can I ensure that there are no warranty costs to the company? On the

The SOLIDWORKS annual release starts with feedback provided by you, our community, and finds its way to the people responsible for including your request in our annual release. For SOLIDWORKS 2015, we wanted to introduce you to some of the
... ContinuedVideo: The Future of Design Intelligence has Arrived
The future of design intelligence is here. The time to include CAD embedded design in your workflow is now. Today’s most innovative design and manufacturing companies rely on virtual simulation, concurrent with the design process, to bring great products to
... ContinuedTrend Tracker in SOLIDWORKS Simulation Standard
Great Engineering Design is about finding a solution that is not only functional but also close to optimal. For an engineer to improve a design, it is important to have easy-to-use simulation tools available that enable one to look at
... ContinuedAugust’s Top 5 SOLIDWORKS Blog Posts
It seems that much of the world is on holiday in August, so it’s understandable if you decided to tear yourself away from the SOLIDWORKS blogs for a few weeks. Certainly it was a difficult decision to make, but the
... ContinuedVideo: Welcome to the Era of Simulation-Driven Engineering
Achieving speed and ensuring functionality might seem mutually exclusive. However, CAD-embedded simulation is bringing efficiency and effectiveness closer than ever, and SOLIDWORKS Simulation customers are already reaping the rewards. By using SOLIDWORKS Simulation, engineers in any industry can create and
... ContinuedLinear Static Analysis in SOLIDWORKS Simulation Standard
With advancements in hardware and software technology, simulation is being used extensively in different fields of science, engineering and beyond. In mechanical engineering and part design, virtual prototyping is no exception. Designers and engineers use computer simulations on their 3D
... ContinuedAll Together Now with Lukas Jönsson Engineering: A Manufacturer’s One-Stop Shop
The world seems to be getting smaller and smaller these days. Tech giants like Google and Apple are constantly cranking out tools we need to access any information we could desire. Over the past decade we have experienced innovation and ingenuity
... ContinuedHow to Easily Democratize Simulation Results
Last year, I attended a conference about Simulation & Analysis during which a senior engineer mentioned in his presentation that he has a hard time sharing Simulation results to colleagues and non-simulation users. He explained that too often Simulation results
... ContinuedRecently in…Summer Tech
Summer is in full swing. For many, July and August are full of holidays, staycations, sports, and watching big-budget movie blockbusters. Whether your activity of choice is as simple as running through a lawn sprinkler or experiencing a film in
... ContinuedThe Art of Simulation Data Management
Manufacturing industries are increasing the use of simulation tools to better understand and validate product behavior. Fortunately this shift toward analysis has led to more informed design decisions. However, I have always wondered how companies that adopt aggressive design simulation
... ContinuedDesigning for Manufacturing, Fit for Purpose
I find it interesting how 3D Printing is all the rage now, even though it’s been around for decades. Obviously the price of 3D printing has been reduced substantially, which has created much more mainstream demand. 3D printing is a
... ContinuedSIMULATION as a 3D Engineering tool: Customer story of TELSONIC
Every time I present SOLIDWORKS Simulation around the world, I’m talking about the design process and how the product engineers can use virtual simulation as an engineering tool. For me the concept is pretty clear (and that’s a good thing
