SolidWorks Simulation Professional
With SolidWorks® Simulation Professional expands your virtual testing environment. You can determine product durability and natural frequencies and test heat transfer and buckling instabilities. Pressure vessel analysis and complex loading is also supported. Your can optimize products based on a range of parameters. With the tight integration and consistent user interface across SolidWorks software, the advanced capabilities of Simulation Professional can be used early in the design process to maximize quality and reduce costs.
Featured SolidWorks Simulation Professional capabilities:
Optimization. Optimization can
help to: Find the best alternative, Reduce time to market, Reduce cost
and weight, Remain competitive, Improve product quality, With
optimization capabilities you can automatically find the best design
based on design intent, use any SolidWorks dimension as a parameter, and
put constraints such that optimum design stay within allowable stress
limits.
Drop Test. Save time and cost by reducing the number
of physical tests. Drop test analysis is intuitive and easy to
perform and allows you to study shifting and interaction of components
in an assembly. You can calculate impact results as stress,
deformation and force. You have the ability to specify drop
height, impact velocity, and angle of impact. You can drop the
object on a rigid floor or a flexible floor.
Buckling or Collapse. Examine how
vibrating or unstable modes can shorten equipment life and cause
unexpected failures. You can also access the effects of load
stiffening on frequency and buckling response.
Simulate
Heating or Cooling. With thermal analysis
you can understand the effects of temperature changes on parts and
assemblies by studying conduction, convection, and radiation heat
transfer; utilize isotropic, orthotropic, and temperature-dependent
material properties and determine thermal stress due to temperature
distributions and varying materials.
Simulate
Pressure.
Ally bearing loads, forces, pressures and torques
and optimize designs based on structure, motion or geometry.
Fatigue Simulation.
Predict how long the product will last, modify
existing design to extend working life, and identify critically damaged
area. Input unique S-N curves for different material types.
