This course teaches the essential skills you will need to start performing fundamental computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations on your own using SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation. This two-day training program provides an in-depth session on the basics of fluid flow analysis, covering meshing concerns, modeling concerns, analysis, post-processing, available options, and preferences.
Topics covered: projects, single line diagrams, cabling, creating schematics, cross-referencing the single line diagram, control drawings, managing origin-destination arrows, programmable logic controllers (PLC), creating and using macros, editing the PLC drawing, creating and running reports
Topics covered are: sketching, multi-contour sketching, reference geometry creation, design intent, feature creation, shelling, configurations, assemblies, drawings/detailing, editing, parent-child relationships, relations, rudimentary top-down design, and advanced
mating techniques.
This course is designed for users who would like to become productive in analyzing structures subjected to various types of dynamic loading. The material covered includes the time-dependent analysis (force loads and motion shock loading examples), harmonic analysis and random vibration analysis (MILS-STD-810F example), response spectrum analysis, and introduction to nonlinear dynamics simulation.
Sheet Metal teaches you how to build sheet metal parts using SOLIDWORKS mechanical design automation software. Building standalone sheet metal parts, and converting conventional parts to sheet metal, including in the assembly context, are covered.
Topics covered in this course are: introduction to FEA; FEA principles and theory; element quality; linear static analysis of parts; gap/contact and advanced assembly analysis; analysis setup and post-processing; evaluating FE convergence; limitations of linear analysis; load and boundary condition application; stress analysis with thermal loading; model and result validation; automatic report generation.
Topics covered: projects, single line diagrams, cabling, creating schematics, cross-referencing the single line diagram, control drawings, managing origin-destination arrows, programmable logic controllers (PLC), creating and using macros, editing the PLC drawing, creating and running reports
Advanced Part Modeling teaches you how to use multibody solids, sweeping and lofting features, and the more advanced shaping capabilities of SOLIDWORKS.
