Requirements

Basics knowledge of Solidworks

Solidworks 2016 or newer version

Description

This course introduces how to set up a model for Finite Element Analysis, run the analysis, and interpret the results to optimize your SOLIDWORKS models. Upon completing this course, you'll have basic skills foundation to carry out FEA. There is no requirement of previous knowledge in Finite Element Analysis (FEA) or Finite Element Method (FEM).

In the first part of this course you will learn how to set up a simulation, how to prepare a model, how to define fixture and loads, how to create a mesh, how to run simulation and how to analyse results of Stress, Displacement and Strain.

In the second part of this course you will learn how to define you own mesh, how to run multiple simulations, how to calculate stresses and strain at specific point of the model, how to create XY plots, how to modify model depending on the simulation results and how to create reports of simulation study.

This course will equip you with basic tools and techniques of Finite Element Analysis as well some basic theory of Finite Element Analysis. So the target students are beginners. For intermediate and advanced students I recommend taking course that goes more in depth.

*THIS COURSE IS SOLELY FOR BEGINNERS. IT'S NOT RECOMMENDED FOR INTERMEDIATE AND PROFESSIONAL STUDENTS
