Adding Physics to Make Rendering Realistic
One of the greatest challenges in rendering is to simulate the actual condition in real life – gravity, contact, friction and motion, etc. With SOLIDWORKS Visualize Professional, it is no longer a problem because we can use physical simulation to
... ContinuedHybrid Mesh Modelling in SOLIDWORKS 2022
WHAT IS HYBRID MODELLING? Thanks to the all-new Hybrid mesh modelling features in SOLIDWORKS 2022 you can now directly edit imported mesh bodies as if they were native parts that were designed in SOLIDWORKS. This means that features such as
... ContinuedHandling Interferences for Meshing in SOLIDWORKS Simulation
If you’ve ever run into the case where you get the following message, seen below in Image 1: “At least two bodies are interfering. Do you want to check interference?” Image 1: Detected bodies that are interfering. Agghhh! And I’m
... ContinuedSOLIDWORKS Simulation Vs. SimulationXpress
Every version of SOLIDWORKS contains SimulationXpress capability to carry out first pass stress analysis on your parts. If you are lucky enough to have SOLIDWORKS Premium, then you also get the linear static analysis simulation add-in. In addition to this,
... ContinuedIs This a Good FEA Mesh? Here’s How to Answer Yes, No, and All-You-Need-to-Know About Meshing Infographic
Meshing a model is an integral step in performing any simulation. There’s no getting around it – it has to be done. Thanks to many improvements over the years, meshing has transformed from a very tedious, manual process into a
... ContinuedWho Needs Mesh Controls Anyway?
The quality of your mesh is critical to obtaining accurate results from your analyses. You’ll often hear the term “convergence analysis” tossed around in the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) world. “Convergence analysis” means we want to ensure the mesh in critical areas
... ContinuedSOLIDWORKS Simulation – Define Shell Elements by Selected Faces
SOLIDWORKS Simulation When simulating large, thin objects it is much more simple, computationally, to define these types of objects as shell elements rather than solid elements. The problem is that most beginner simulation users are not comfortable with this element
