SOLIDWORKS 2017 Enhancements SOLIDWORKS 2017 is here and it’s packed with great enhancements making the use of SOLIDWORKS easier and more enjoyable. Here are my top 3 favorite functionalities in the Analysis tools. SOLIDWORKS Simulation: Stress Singularities Gone are the
... ContinuedFatigue Analysis: The General Process
Running a fatigue analysis is a growing trend in mechanical parts and assemblies. You must already familiar with stress analysis, as it is the basis for fatigue analysis. Stress or strain information from a stress analysis is the basis for predicting
... ContinuedWill it float? Let’s test it with SOLIDWORKS Simulation
Will it float? (And if so, how deep?) Last month, I built a six-metre rowing boat in SOLIDWORKS. I was interested to know just how much I could find out about this boat using SOLIDWORKS Simulation– for example, how many people
