SOLIDWORKS Simulation TrainingGain credibility and get ahead with our SolidWorks Training & Certi�cation

Duration: 3 Days

Prerequisites: Knowledge of SOLIDWORKS and basic mechanical engineering concepts is recommended.

Course OutlineThis course is designed to make SOLIDWORKS users productive more quickly with the SOLIDWORKS Simulation Bundle. This course will

provide an in-depth coverage on the basics of Finite Element Analysis (FEA), covering the entire analysis process from meshing to

evaluation of results for parts and assemblies. The class discusses linear stress analysis, gap/contact analysis, and best practices.
