By the way, I\u2019m not here to answer the tough questions, just bring these two groups together.<\/p>\n<p>So, to answer Aaron\u2019s question: \u201cHow can I study and simulate a bowling ball as it is traveling down the alley?\u201d (Aaron actually has more detail than that, which you can see in the video). I proposed this question to our own Omar Zohni, PhD, one of our Simulation experts, and let\u2019s say that the Simulation Dude abides.<\/p>\n<p>Watch this video to hear Aaron\u2019s question, and Omar explaining how to simulate friction of the bowling ball using different parameters within SOLIDWORKS Simulation.<\/p>\n<div class=\"video-container\">\n<div class=\"entry-content-asset\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1140\" height=\"641\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/o0wZzKeTebI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Next Question for Omar:\u00a0 How do you get a spare for the dreaded 7-10 split\u2026no bumpers?<\/p>\n<p>Want to see more\u2026<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.solidworks.com\/sw\/resources\/36947_ENU_HTML.htm\" target=\"_blank\">Watch this Webinar On-demand<\/a><\/strong> of Omar explaining how to validate a drone before it takes flight.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.solidworks.com\/sw\/resources\/36947_ENU_HTML.htm\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-29058 size-full aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/blog-assets.solidworks.com\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2016\/04\/SW_SIM_Webinar_Drone_Analysis_961x250.jpg\" alt=\"SOLIDWORKS SIMULATION Drone Analysis\" width=\"600\" height=\"156\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog-assets.solidworks.com\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2016\/04\/SW_SIM_Webinar_Drone_Analysis_961x250.jpg 600w, https:\/\/blog-assets.solidworks.com\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2016\/04\/SW_SIM_Webinar_Drone_Analysis_961x250-300x78.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Throwing a heavy ball down an alley to knock some pins over \u2013 pretty fun and pretty simple game, right?
