SolidWorks Simulation

In today’s our modern world, simulations of mechanical designs would be done in computer environment with development of technology. In this case, behaviours of machine elements or system can be predicted before they are manufactured. These processes are known as “Finite Element Analysis”. Before manufacturing of the product, working conditions of system is specified in computer environment, and the design could be upgraded according to result of analysis. Owing to these virtual environment analyzes, the number of prototype experiment could be slightly decreased therefore, companies control their prototype cost, and produce more rapidly.

Structural Analyses

Structural analyzes are helpful to optimize and determine safety factor, cost, material, weight, and strength of material. Struztural analysis is more economical way to test design of systems compare to conventional prototype experiments, and also, engineers can realize the effect of changes on method or structural analysis softwares to specify safety factor and performans limits of product before manufacturing process the workpiece, which are worked out in computer environment. Also, the design would be predictable about what will happen if any input of design is changed. All these engineering processes are used to optimize and establish all predictable design faults before they are manufactured.


Ab initio, real world environment and all boundary conditions would be analysed. Engineers are able to get response of system behaviours, and develop the parts of system or whole system via technical information of system behaviours.

There are some solutions of SolidWorks Simulation;

  • Be able to analyse several different physical environments as virtual.
  • Be able to analyse linear and nonlinear static, frequency, fatigue, thermal, topology, dynamic and nonlinear dynamic calculations.
  • Be able to analyse time dependent and motion base calculations.
  • Be able to compare performance of products which are produced with different materials.
  • Be able to develop the design of product, which are effected by luquids and gases, with liquid flow and heat transfer analyzes (CFD).
