Length: 4 days
A BLOCK - 8am-11am CST
B BLOCK - 12pm-3pm CST
C BLOCK - 4pm-7pm CST
Prerequisites: Access to SOLIDWORKS 2019 or newer. Access to SOLIDWORKS Simulation Premium 2019 or newer. Must have attended the basic SOLIDWORKS Simulation Essentials and SOLIDWORKS Essentials classes, or have similar experience with SOLIDWORKS and working basic knowledge of finite elements, basic mechanical principles and basic principles in Vibrations. Experience with the Windows® operating system.
Description: This class will raise your SOLIDWORKS Simulation FEA skills to the next level. It offers hands-on experience for the SOLIDWORKS Simulation Premium nonlinear module. It provides an overview on a wide range of nonlinear structural/mechanical analysis topics. You will learn how to deal with models that exhibit large displacements and/or yielding, discuss and practice the use of many material models available in SOLIDWORKS Simulation and how to drive a non-linear analysis to successful completion.
