Features and Benefits SolidWorks Simulation Software Advanced Professional

Provides the following Features and Benefits:

Full Integration with SolidWorks: SolidWorks Simulation Software is fully embedded within the SolidWorks Windows®-native environment.

Embedded Nonlinear Analysis: Simulate the nonlinear material behaviors including that of plastics, rubber, and metals without ever leaving the SolidWorks interface. Simply drag and drop loads, restraints, materials, and mesh from a linear study into a new nonlinear study.

Embedded Dynamic Analysis: SolidWorks Simulation Software can simulate the dynamic response of a structure under the action of any general time-dependent loads or non-determistic loads. SolidWorks Simulation Software lets you study the displacements, strains, stresses and forces in a structure as it responds to any combination of static and transient loads Embedded Fatigue Analysis Determine the life cycle of a design and predict the failure of structures under cyclical loading from within SolidWorks.

Scaleable: SolidWorks Simulation Software has a variety of bundles and option configurations, so you only pay for the functionalities you need. From basic linear static to frequency buckling, drop test, thermal, shell analysis, assemblies capabilities, nonlinear, dynamic, fatigue, SolidWorks Simulation Software offers all of these capabilities and more

Assemblies with Gap Contact Analysis: Analyze assemblies with gaps, contact and friction

Shell Analysis: Analyze shells using SolidWorks surfaces and by extracting mid surfaces of thin walled structures.

Drop Test Simulation: Study the effect of impact on a SolidWorks model when dropped from various heights. Can be performed with a simple 3-step setup.

Design Scenarios: Define analysis inputs such as material, restraints, loads, mesh size, contact resistance, and geometric dimension as parameters or parametric equations. Parameters are defined at the model level and can be used in various studies.

Shape Optimization: Optimize parts and assemblies, whether for constraints such as static, thermal, frequency or buckling, or for objectives such as mass, volume or load factors.
