Nonlinear FEA in Solidworks Simulation
Next Class: June 2019
Location: mHUB Chicago
To succeed in the competitive global marketplace, manufacturers are pushed to come up with more feature-rich designs that are launched in to production in an impossibly short amount of time.
For many Designers and Engineers, this means using Solidworks' Suite of CAD/CAE software including Solidworks Simulation (FEA) to build optimized designs which meets performance and reliability targets.
Linear FEA has many limitations, including over-predicting stresses, under-calculating large deflections, and not being able to account for friction. Plainly put - parts that are analyzed with linear FEA are over designed. And when every inch, every pound, and every dollar counts, nonlinear FEA is required.
We are offering our Intro to Nonlinear FEA in Solidworks Simulation class for Creo users who want to Become a Better Designer through better analysis.
At the end of this Nonlinear FEA class you will be able to:
- Accurately predict stresses past the yield point of a material.
- Confidently model rubber & foam and other hyperelastic materials.
- Model true part-to-part interactions, including Friction & Separation.
- Design Higher Performing Products which are both lighter and stiffer.
- Gain more confidence in your analyses
- Spend Less Time Troubleshooting errors, by learning the best practices.
- Discuss ways to Validate and Verify your model by correlating simulation results to test data.
