SolidWorks Simulation Capabilities 
We have created tutorials to assist you in your design.  The SolidWorks SAE project tutorial  provides step-by-step guidelines on modeling and analyzing different subsystems of a SAE vehicle including molding of the intake manifold and flow analysis.

With help from the University of  Wisconsin FSAE racing team; the tips and techniques can be used across a variety mechanical engineering projects.

SolidWorks has created a series of YouTube video tutorials to help you too. The SolidWorks Sustainability Tutorial utilizes our environmental tools to calculate the carbon footprint and energy consumed of a brake caliper assembly.  New in 2011, you select the type of energy and input estimated energy usage for a complete assembly.
