This section provides best practices and tips on how to effectively use SimSolid capabilities.
SimSolid is structural simulation that operates directly
on original, unsimplified CAD assemblies, does not create a mesh, and provides
results in seconds to minutes. Figure 1.
The workflow in SimSolid includes preprocessing, solution
or solver phase, and postprocessing. The preprocessing step is a short and simple
one. It involves loading the model and creating the connections. The solver portion
requires turning a few knobs based on the objective of your analysis. These workflow
guidelines detail the factors to consider when setting up your analysis to achieve
reliable results downstream in SimSolid.
