SOLIDWORKS Simulation Standard
A virtual testing environment developed for static linear, time-based motion and high-cycle fatigue simulation. Engineers can acquire answers to the most common challenges typically encountered during the design process. While the list of features is substantial, there are two special features of this software package that are frequently recognized. Fatigue simulation and the Trend Tracker enable you to understand product life expectancy and highlight optimal design changes.
- Fully embedded and associative interface with CAD
- Solid, shell and beam monitoring meshes
- Linear static analysis on parts and assemblies
- Time based motion simulation
- Design comparison studies
- Fatigue simulation
