3DEXPERIENCE SIMULIA - Structural Mechanics Engineer Overview
SIMULIA’S finite element analysis program accurately predicts the performance of your designs under highly nonlinear loading conditions. The Structural Mechanics Engineer role on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform delivers the explicit analysis solver from ABAQUS to the SOLIDWORKS user. Powered by the world-renowned ABAQUS solver, users can now calculate complex structural analyses involving geometry, contact, and material nonlinearity while staying connected with their SOLIDWORKS design changes.

00:00:01 [Music] when it comes to finite element analysis the implicit analysis technique is very popular in industry to study the structural performance of various products but when the loading conditions experienced by these components become dynamic you will need to employ sophisticated
00:00:18 explicit analysis techniques so enter the simuliaworks structural mechanics engineer role on the 3d experience platform with this role users can now simulate complex structural analysis using the abacus explicit solver while staying connected to the solidworks environment let's take a look at this alternating
00:00:39 vehicle that i designed in solidworks for the mini baja competition hosted by the sae an important criteria for this contest is to justify the crash workiness of the frame for the impact analysis i kept just the frame and added a pole to the solidworks assembly now using the 3d experience connector i'm able to transfer the design data
00:01:00 into a designated cloud storage space on the 3d experience platform once saved i can even launch the abacus solver also known as the mechanical scenario application right from within this connector now once within the application i'm able to take advantage of the intuitive ui to set up the analysis the automated hex and quad meshing tools
00:01:24 make capturing complex geometry a very simple process i'm also able to prescribe an initial velocity to the entire frame with just a few button clicks now when the setup is complete i'm able to utilize local resources as well as cloud resources to speed up computing by altering just a few solver settings
00:01:45 animating the impact performance of the frame reveals areas where the design can be improved for instance adding a cross member at the indicated area on the frame a few other areas where this simulation application is being leveraged in industry are drop testing assemblies buckling analysis
00:02:06 metal forming and fracture prediction if you're in the market for solving highly non-linear static and dynamic analysis please contact us about the structural mechanics engineer role on the 3d experience platform and solidworks [Music] [Music]
