Take
your design validation to the next level with
SolidWorks Simulation Professional. Now you can
subject your designs to real-world stresses, helping
you shorten the prototype cycle and get products to
market faster.
SolidWorks Simulation Professional goes beyond the
basic features found in SolidWorks Premium, adding a
complete set of analysis and validation tools. Here
are some of the additional capabilities included
with Simulation Professional:
Compare and Optimize Alternatives. Determine the
best design option by comparing strengths, life,
cost, and weight. Perform all comparisons and design
modifications within the SolidWorks environment.
Failure Prediction: Save the time and prototyping
costs while creating safer, more durable products.
Simulation predicts structural failure thresholds
due to yielding, overheating, buckling, and fatigue.
Simulate Drop Test or Impact. Save time and cost by
reducing the number of physical tests. Define drop
height, surface, and orientation. Perform realistic
collision simulation between parts or assemblies.
Predict Buckling or Collapse. Virtually apply
forces, pressure and gravity to your designs to
determine maximum loads before buckling. You can
study the effects of various materials as well as
isotopic and orthotropic factors.
Simulate Heating or Cooling. Thermal analysis
capabilities make it easy to study the effect of
heat on your designs. Simulate thermal boundary
conditions, fluid flow, thermal-structural
interactions, and radiation effects in
high-temperature applications.
Simulate Repeated Loading: Simulate, evaluate, and
improve a part or assembly that has to stand up to
daily use. Evaluate responses to varying speeds or
frequencies, and estimate the design life of your
entire product.
