Static stress simulation
Learn to use static stress simulation to validate mechanical components.
Module overview
Learn how to validate 3D models using static stress simulation. Explore to prepare models for simulation through simplification, set up simulation studies with materials, loads, constraints, and solid interactions. Discover how to mesh and solve a simulation study and review static stress simulations to identify design improvements.
After completing this module, you’ll be able to:
- Prepare a model for simulation.
- Set up loads and constraints.
- Solve and review a simulation study.
- Reuse simulation setup information.
