Hello to all, Welcome to the new edition of the SOLIDWORKS Support Monthly News! This monthly news blog is co-authored by members of the SOLIDWORKS Technical Support teams worldwide. The justification for the Yield and Tensile Strength values for
... ContinuedBe the first to know – “General Contact” has just launched!
You may know that SOLIDWORKS just launched a new product on the 3DEXPERIENCE Platform: Structural Professional Engineer. What is Structural Professional Engineer? It is a Finite Element Analysis or structural analysis software application powered by Abaqus, the best non-linear solver
... ContinuedTop Five Injection Molded Part Design Errors, the Consequences, and How to Avoid Them
When injection molded parts have defects, it’s often the molder that takes the blame. However, the root cause of many defects is a poorly designed part. In fact, it is the part designer that has the greatest potential to improve
... ContinuedAircraft Engine Mount – Frequency/Vibration Testing
The intention of this article is to describe a portion of the process required to engineer a frame and engine mounting system for a single engine aircraft. Figure 1: Many Design Options are available. For example, the above image depicts
