Our Classroom courses take place at our SOLIDWORKS Training Centre in Larbert.<\/p>\n

Our virtual training courses are instructor led and delivered online. Each course is packed with interactive demonstrations,\u00a0<\/b>hands-on exercises\u00a0<\/b>and\u00a0plenty of time to ask questions<\/b>.<\/p>\n

Prerequisites<\/h4>\n

Attendees should have attended a SOLIDWORKS Essentials Training Course and have a basic understanding of mechanical engineering concepts<\/p>\n

Description<\/h4>\n

This course is designed to quickly make SOLIDWORKS users more productive with the SOLIDWORKS Simulation Bundle. This course will provide an in-depth coverage on the basics of Finite Element Analysis (FEA), covering the entire analysis process from meshing to evaluation of results for parts and assemblies. The class discusses linear stress analysis, gap\/contact analysis, and best practices (3 days).<\/p>\n
