I'm an engineer and this popped up in my recommendations. Don't know why I clicked but I watched the whole thing. I use solidworks this way pretty much every day, and I felt this was all perfectly explained. Wish I had a teacher like you!
Hello, I am a graduate mechanical engineer and I work with SolidWorks. At the moment I am learning finite elements and I am enthusiastic about her lessons. You are the best teacher.
After wandering in the Solidworks / FEA desert for 15 years, I've finally stumbled my way up the mountain and in an hour the Guru has set me on the path to enlightenment. Been trying to understand this for years and now I feel -- not like I've got it all, but that I see where the path to getting it all lies and I can go as far as I need to get my work done. THANKS!
Thats a great lecture :) I like the concept of basically asking your students to apply their best knowledge first, then show something which they would not have expected (so you have their full attention) and then showing them why is that and how it can be considered. Good job and thanks for sharing!
I am designing an aluminium chasis, I did some static structural tests on it, there were very localised stress concentrations. I was scratching my head for weeks to figure it out. This video cleared all the doubts. Now I am confident that my design is pretty good. And those very localised stress zones will be fine. Thank you very much. It's such a great lecture. Can't "stress" this enough, this lecture is great.
I was a notorious truant at school [back in the 80s], but hand-on-heart would never have missed one of your classes. I hope your students realise how lucky they are!
I wish I knew about this before my FEA class… This is very helpful thank you. I wanted to note, at 29:00 when discussing curved surfaces causing element distortion with Solidworks you can apply mesh control locally to that surface instead of refining the mesh for the entire model(generally half the element size of the global mesh is standard). This will save you time and computer memory when running the mesh.
Good tip. I do the same. The way I choose on which bits to locally reduce the mesh size is to first run a coarse gobal mesh and then when I get the areas of stress I increase the resolution in those regions i.e. holes and other interfaces.
I'm a engineer student and i found your channel for couple of weeks ago,i can surely do tell your channel and your wide expertise on mechanic area really taught me alot. i hoping for you the best.
I am a civil engineer working as ship design engineer for 13 years. How I wish I had a teacher like you before with all this visual.

Note at minute 56 onwards is probably one of the most valuable synthesized and elegant pieces of information that you could ever see in your career as an engineer. If he added some of st venant's principle it would have been absolutely perfect. Very useful video.
I studied electrical engineering at university and we had to study mechanical engineering for a year. I learned something more interesting about stresses from this video than from that whole year at university.
What a great lecture ! As a french person, it was very understandable, complete and not boring at all. I'm currently studying civil engineering, and have no need for solidworks, but I used to use it a few years back and I endee up watching the whole video even though I don't need it. That shows how interesting you made it. Wish all my classes could have been like that.
Thanks for the positive review, in spite of the US units :D Someday I'll do a brief video on why I present about half of my problems in US units and half in SI. Regardless, thanks for watching!
Very good explanation, I must say, you are one of the greatest lecturer of all time, as you explain from the student point of view. I request you to provide some more lecturers on Solid works.
You sir are amazing. Your lectures and real time examples have helped me understand better. This channel and your teaching is gold. Thanks a million and hope you get more subscribers.
Thank you for sharing these awesome lectures. Your lectures helping me a lot sir. I appreciate your passion to share your knowledge to whole world. once again thank you very much.

Once again, a great video, well presented! I just want to note that the existence of the hole affects the stress in the fillet. That means that the hand calculation is not quite accurate and it explains the difference with the result in Solidworks.
I'm switching over from creo to solid works and I been wanting to learn some of this on some of our mechanical designs. Great lecture and plan to use your knowledge. Thank you sir...
The amount of material above and below that one inch hole is equal to the narrowed 2 inch right side. If that 5000lbs. is the SWL, that's because it's the "Safe Work Load" for the least amount of material under stress
I don't know why but (not knowing what the hell I'm looking at) I managed to guess what I would divide 5,000 lb.s by just by logical guessing. I know personally this means nothing but I'm proud of myself for following this with no prior knowledge
i had a simple question. there are charts and correlation for the plate when the whole is not there and charts and correlations when the fillets are not there .which to use?
Hello. I downloaded almost all your videos and learned a lot of information thanks to you. In the analysis you made with the Solidworks program in this video, at minute 47:30, the r/D ratio should have been taken as 0.1/3 instead of 0.1/2 in the notch graph. A lower value emerged than the program's conclusion. With 0.1/3, the K value seems to be approximately 3.12, which gives a value of 15600 psi, which is quite close.
Thanks for the words of encouragement. The charts I'm using don't require the r/D ratio, only D/d and r/d. D is the larger width and d is the smaller width, based on the figure included on the chart. I believe the correct point was found on the correct curve in the video. Thanks for watching!
Truly great lecture and a great way of presenting the material and knowledge, I am so glad that the youtube algorithm had led me to your lectures. I have already subscribed to learn more from you, hoping that you will also continue making such amazing insightful lecture videos. Keep up the good work sir :)
ok. so if i want to calculate stress concentration factor from the simulation, i have to divide the max stress from the color chart with the stress that is away from the hole and dont have the effect of the hole. and then compare what i got as a factor to the one from the charts for D/d ratios?
There is a stress concentration whether or not the material is ductile, but as I discuss at around 56:40 and following, stress concentrations can often be safely neglected for ductile materials. Whether or not you should neglect them is controlled by whether you can tolerate tiny amounts of permanent deformation at the concentrated locations. Thanks for watching!
TheBom_PE hey that clears it up, thanks. One last thing that has been confusing me - There was a question in Shigley textbook of the sheer stress in a double shearing pin. The solution didn’t use ‘sheer stress = V / A’ as I would expect but ‘sheer stress = 4V / 3A’ which is the formula for translational sheer stress in a round beam. I thought you would look for the sheer across the pin, not along the pin?
Thanks for sharing. trying to learn how to apply FEA to large assembly models for things manufactured where I work. Been having trouble with the simulations getting errors during the meshing step. Have tried running on smaller sub-assemblies and still receiving errors. I can get this to run on single parts, but need to find out how to apply on assembly models to confirm that equipment will not fail for customers.
Great lecture and wonderful lecturer. I can understand why you are using psi( American units) instead of S I (International) units N/mm2. Now, it is clear from the results obtained from the analyses that the stress concentration is in the neighbourhood of the hole. Now, if the plate(say Steel) is used in building the deck of a ship and opening is provided for access, how can Solid work take care of reinforcing rings around the hole using triangular or other elements? Finally, are these lectures available as hard copy?
Thanks for the encouragement! In solid works you can model more complicated geometry and loading scenarios than what I did here. So if you want to investigate a reinforced hole in a ship deck, I would expect you could come up with some reasonable way to limit the bounds of your study to do that. I'm sorry, right now I don't have hard copies available for my lectures. Thanks for watching!
Hi. Thanks for sharing this. Aroud 47:30 you found slight differance between the FEA result and result you got from formula. The reason of that differance is that you used r=0.5 in in formula but 0.1 in in Solidwork. And ım suprised nobody in class told this to you :)
In regards to this, I was also wondering why he used 0.5 rather 0.1 in the main formula when he changed it to 0.1 in solidworks specifically for the fillet. I understand 0.5 didn’t give any stress at the fillet location, which explains that 0.5 was a good choice to reduce stress. Did he purposely changing it to make it sharper to show stress, so the situation can be solved? The overall answer would be, don’t use anything less than 0.5.
I'm glad you found it useful! If you haven't seen them already, you might want to check out a couple of my related playlists: Statics & Mech. of Materials: th-cam.com/play/PL1IHA35xY5H5sjfjibqn_XFFxk3-pFiaX.html Advanced Mechanics of Materials: th-cam.com/play/PL1IHA35xY5H5AJpRrM2lkF7Qu2WnbQLvS.html Thanks for watching!
Great lecture! I have a question though. What if the problem is outside the bounds of the stress concentration factor graph? e.g. if the r/d value is greater than the range on the x axis of the graph. What are the implications of this and what should you do instead? Thanks!
If r/d is greater than the horizontal range of the chart, you have a few choices. (1) Look for a similar chart that has more range. (2) A conservative thing to do is use the K value at the rightmost point on the chart you have. (3) A non-conservative method is to roughly project the slope of the right end of the curve further right. (4) An even less conservative thing to do is ignore the stress concentration effect entirely since r is "large." (5) Occasionally you might be able to find or create an equation for the curve you are using which will enable you to more accurately project outside the curve's range. If you go to the left of the curve's range, K is obviously increasing rapidly because the discontinuity is becoming sharp. At some point a plain stress concentration factor technique is insufficient, and a fuller, fracture-mechanics-based analysis is called for. If you are interested in a brief intro to fracture mechanics, check out these videos: th-cam.com/video/SD6qITe3-Xo/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/E5tgDVN1zy4/w-d-xo.html
Could the difference in the reference on the book vs fem be due to the difference in distance from the boundary to the neck, presence of the circular opening or different boundary conditions regarding deformation parallel to the plane that supports the element?
I keep noticing very high concentrations in very small areas in the FEAs of various types of industrial threads. These stresses are in the thread root and contact areas. Typically it’s in the first three threads that the strain is highest. Do you have any advice on how one could mitigate or defend the results of an FEA with that type of result?
That's sounds pretty accurate tbf. Most of the stress will be on the first thread, then a bit on the next and a bit less on the next (something like 34%, 23%, 16%,11%,9%, 7% on each consecutive thread). If the bolt is softer it will spread more to further threads but yeah normally 3 threads are doing most of the work. For example in carbon steel you only need 1x the diameter in length of thread engagement to maximise sheer strength, so you aim for 1.5 to make sure you get at least a 1 times. And yes stress is highest at the contact points of a thread, which you see when a thread strips. It makes sense when you think about it. The edges get rounded over. As for how I'd defend the results, well look at some pictures on the internet of stripped threads. That's how I check all my sanity check all FEA results. Do they match up with real world examples.
I don't know if you still check on this videos comments but I was wondering what software you use to write these notes. I just thought the function where you can move everything under a line down is so useful
It is one of the ones I would like to get to at some point! Right now my efforts are being pulled from making very many new videos to making better materials for online learning in the age of COVID. Hopefully sometime soon I can get back into making more new videos! Thanks for watching!
wow importants aspects of mechanics explaned very well and shared on youtube good job SIR ! thanks a lot so can i get the references used in this lecture like : reference material ?
Thank you! I'm glad you liked it! When I speak of "reference material" in this video, I'm referring to a document we have compiled that contains all of the required reference information used in this course. Mostly this document contains material found in our textbook for that course (Statics and Mechanics of Materials, 2nd ed. by Riley Sturges and Morris). Outside of this specific course, I would encourage engineers to search for the most relevant and up-to-date reference sources for their specific needs. Peterson is a good source for stress concentration factor charts. Thanks for watching!
Hello. I'm a novice SW/FEA user who's beginning to work more and more with FEA for school. How do Solidworks' FEA simulations match up with other FEA software such as FEMAP or Nastran? When does SW not do an efficient job with finite element modeling?
Solid works in general is not that much used in FEA. ANSYS is a free software. The meshing quality is much higher with FEA dedicated softwares and will give you better results.
Thank you very much Sir it was a very good explanation, but what I did not manage to understand is that in this problem (in example) we have a concentric force applied in the cross section but when you used SolidWorks you did you use a distributed and non-concentrated force, why is that?
bonsoir c'est les variations de température sur cette pièces et sa composition chimique usiner comme pour un moteur air bus de chez role roys sur ordinateur et soufflerie.
here is what Google translate gave me: "good evening it is the temperature variations on this part and its chemical composition machined as for an air bus engine from role roys on computer and wind tunnel"
Sir, how shall I contact you? I don't have an elder brother and whenever I've asked help from my seniors and faculties about my subjects, they just turned away. If possible please let me know.😔
Very informative video, Can I get the reference file somehow and a small question, Why can't we see the max principle stress in fem to compare with the analytical solution. Because the max principle stress will show Higher value. Basically I'm confused with whether should we use von misses or max principle stress to compare
2 ปีที่แล้ว
Have a look on Mohr's theory and von misses theory, basically von misses includes the tensile/compressive stresses and transversal stresses (shear) and it's mostly used for failure cirteria for static ductile materials (if your allowed stress is lower than the highest value of von missed your component would start to yield. The principal stresses shows you the pure tensile or compressive stresses in your part. As I mentioned above please refer to Mohr's circle and the description of the distortion energy by von misses to better understanding and application. Also have a look on failure criterias
In this video, I basically treat the force as if it is distributed uniformly on the face to which it is applied. This is equivalent to a pressure or stress, as you are asking. Thanks for watching!
@@TheBomPE means I don't need to find sigma nominal if a pressure is given as load in uniaxial problem like this. that pressure would be sigma nominal.
Never thought I’d need or want a Threadripper cpu. To bad they can’t make these programs utilize GPU’s. They are much better at parallel processing. It’d be cool if they allowed to select areas and increase or decrease the mesh for just those parts.
Thanks for the kind words! I find that the abstraction of units systems conceptually occurs in the minds of students better when there are at least two units systems to deal with. If there is only one units system, we are at risk of inadvertently communicating to students that units are somehow transcendental, rather than arbitrary human constructions. Thanks for watching!
Contact refers to how the components interact with each other (bonded, not bonded). The hierarchy in SW simulation goes as follows: Global contacts>Component contacts>contact set (local contact). Contact sets are defined between two faces/edges that can even be within the same component, these are commonly used in cases where you want to simulate interactions between faces that are free to come in contact but are also free to separate (no penetration contacts). When you choose component contacts SW requires a list of 2 or more components and it will impose the specified conditions on all faces it finds in common between those components. Because of their hierarchy, local contacts will overwrite component contacts and component contacts will overwrite global contact conditions.
That's been heard a lot. I rarely used solidworks for FEA. I think when you have more nodal elements, your accuracy tend to increase. FEA dedicated softwares should be having an edge in that sense.
@@TheBomPE i try not to confuse people with mislaid terminology. it depends how much detail you want the viewer to have i guess. it's more like saying that all wood is kleenex given the disparity. fully appreciate that's not the purpose or intent of the video and it's title. you'd be surprised how widespread the issue is and the impact it has on the basic understanding between different groups. while that can be considered pedantic it depends what your perspective is and if you have any role in bringing insight on what the difference is between solid mechanics and numerical methods.
I do about a half and half mix of SI and US units on my channel. Currently US viewers account for triple the watch time of the next highest country (India). In the US, "Imperial" units are the ones we "feel" most natively. Here, they are also probably the most widely used units for things like raw materials, fasteners, etc. Anyway, they are still very important, particularly to US watchers, so I do both.
@@TheBomPE Thanks a lot for the clarification. I completely understand the position you are in. I was making a general comment of my experience. Thanks again!

I understand 0.5 didn’t give any stress at the fillet location, which explains that 0.5 was a good choice to reduce stress. Did he purposely changing it to make it sharper to show stress, so the situation can be solved? The overall answer would be, don’t use anything less than 0.5.
Very much useful and rich content

Great lecture! I have a question though. What if the problem is outside the bounds of the stress concentration factor graph? e.g. if the r/d value is greater than the range on the x axis of the graph. What are the implications of this and what should you do instead? Thanks!
If r/d is greater than the horizontal range of the chart, you have a few choices. (1) Look for a similar chart that has more range. (2) A conservative thing to do is use the K value at the rightmost point on the chart you have. (3) A non-conservative method is to roughly project the slope of the right end of the curve further right. (4) An even less conservative thing to do is ignore the stress concentration effect entirely since r is "large." (5) Occasionally you might be able to find or create an equation for the curve you are using which will enable you to more accurately project outside the curve's range.
If you go to the left of the curve's range, K is obviously increasing rapidly because the discontinuity is becoming sharp. At some point a plain stress concentration factor technique is insufficient, and a fuller, fracture-mechanics-based analysis is called for.

@@TheBomPE Thanks for the quick and detailed response! you've been a great help, I'll check out those videos
Could the difference in the reference on the book vs fem be due to the difference in distance from the boundary to the neck, presence of the circular opening or different boundary conditions regarding deformation parallel to the plane that supports the element?

Excellent lecture. Especially the last minutes were expanding horizon for me :)
Awesome! All the best to you!
great lecture, thankss. Whats the application you use for writing the solution?
I use Microsoft onenote 2007 (the last version with customizable toolbars). thanks for watching!
I keep noticing very high concentrations in very small areas in the FEAs of various types of industrial threads. These stresses are in the thread root and contact areas. Typically it’s in the first three threads that the strain is highest. Do you have any advice on how one could mitigate or defend the results of an FEA with that type of result?
That's sounds pretty accurate tbf. Most of the stress will be on the first thread, then a bit on the next and a bit less on the next (something like 34%, 23%, 16%,11%,9%, 7% on each consecutive thread). If the bolt is softer it will spread more to further threads but yeah normally 3 threads are doing most of the work. For example in carbon steel you only need 1x the diameter in length of thread engagement to maximise sheer strength, so you aim for 1.5 to make sure you get at least a 1 times.
And yes stress is highest at the contact points of a thread, which you see when a thread strips. It makes sense when you think about it. The edges get rounded over. As for how I'd defend the results, well look at some pictures on the internet of stripped threads. That's how I check all my sanity check all FEA results. Do they match up with real world examples.
Lecture was very helpful.
Glad I could help! Thanks for watching!
Which calculation is more accurate? One using the chart or one from FEA software(Assuming that you have the best FEA software available)?
I believe the overall load is 10K. You diagram shows 5K pulling from each end as opposed to a F that is equal and opposite.
No, 5000lb applied to one end with 5000lb reacting against it at the other end means that the part is carrying 5000lb.
Student version of SOLID WORKS is available ?
I don't know if you still check on this videos comments but I was wondering what software you use to write these notes. I just thought the function where you can move everything under a line down is so useful
I'm using Microsoft onenote 2007. That's still the best version of onenote from what I've experienced. Thanks for watching!
Thanks a lot! An amazing lecture :)

hello sir, Can you made a video with fatigue in case strain life ?? Thank you sir !!
It is one of the ones I would like to get to at some point! Right now my efforts are being pulled from making very many new videos to making better materials for online learning in the age of COVID. Hopefully sometime soon I can get back into making more new videos! Thanks for watching!
Can you do a lecture on how to find the airspeed of an unladen swallow?
African or European?
Greetings young Tolar
wow importants aspects of mechanics explaned very well and shared on youtube good job SIR ! thanks a lot
so can i get the references used in this lecture like : reference material ?
Thank you! I'm glad you liked it! When I speak of "reference material" in this video, I'm referring to a document we have compiled that contains all of the required reference information used in this course. Mostly this document contains material found in our textbook for that course (Statics and Mechanics of Materials, 2nd ed. by Riley Sturges and Morris). Outside of this specific course, I would encourage engineers to search for the most relevant and up-to-date reference sources for their specific needs. Peterson is a good source for stress concentration factor charts.
Thanks for watching!
Hello. I'm a novice SW/FEA user who's beginning to work more and more with FEA for school. How do Solidworks' FEA simulations match up with other FEA software such as FEMAP or Nastran? When does SW not do an efficient job with finite element modeling?
Solid works in general is not that much used in FEA. ANSYS is a free software. The meshing quality is much higher with FEA dedicated softwares and will give you better results.
You never changed the radius in the nominal stress of the filet when doing the hand calculation to compare with the results from SolidWorks
great explanation!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you very much Sir it was a very good explanation, but what I did not manage to understand is that in this problem (in example) we have a concentric force applied in the cross section but when you used SolidWorks you did you use a distributed and non-concentrated force, why is that?
Cause it doesnt make a difference away from the edge
bonsoir c'est les variations de température sur cette pièces et sa composition chimique usiner comme pour un moteur air bus de chez role roys sur ordinateur et soufflerie.
here is what Google translate gave me:
"good evening it is the temperature variations on this part and its chemical composition machined as for an air bus engine from role roys on computer and wind tunnel"
Sir, how shall I contact you? I don't have an elder brother and whenever I've asked help from my seniors and faculties about my subjects, they just turned away. If possible please let me know.😔
Very informative video, Can I get the reference file somehow and a small question, Why can't we see the max principle stress in fem to compare with the analytical solution. Because the max principle stress will show Higher value. Basically I'm confused with whether should we use von misses or max principle stress to compare
Have a look on Mohr's theory and von misses theory, basically von misses includes the tensile/compressive stresses and transversal stresses (shear) and it's mostly used for failure cirteria for static ductile materials (if your allowed stress is lower than the highest value of von missed your component would start to yield. The principal stresses shows you the pure tensile or compressive stresses in your part.
As I mentioned above please refer to Mohr's circle and the description of the distortion energy by von misses to better understanding and application. Also have a look on failure criterias
If we are given pressure load instead of that 5000 lb force. then what would be normal stress ? will it be the given pressure then?
In this video, I basically treat the force as if it is distributed uniformly on the face to which it is applied. This is equivalent to a pressure or stress, as you are asking. Thanks for watching!
@@TheBomPE means I don't need to find sigma nominal if a pressure is given as load in uniaxial problem like this. that pressure would be sigma nominal.
Correct... unless there is a different cross sectional area where you're calculating stress than the place where the load is applied.
@@TheBomPE yea thickness is same but the filleted flat plat is stepped.
Great topic for a lecture….
Glad you liked it
Sorry maybe I didn't get it right, but in this example the point that you mentioned it won't yield 😅 at the end of the video
I wish I could afford an instructor like you
Never thought I’d need or want a Threadripper cpu. To bad they can’t make these programs utilize GPU’s. They are much better at parallel processing.
It’d be cool if they allowed to select areas and increase or decrease the mesh for just those parts.
Should load not have been 10,000 LB's?
Amazing, still old-fashioned units of measurement but but at least in decimal system. :-)
Thanks for the kind words! I find that the abstraction of units systems conceptually occurs in the minds of students better when there are at least two units systems to deal with. If there is only one units system, we are at risk of inadvertently communicating to students that units are somehow transcendental, rather than arbitrary human constructions. Thanks for watching!
can you please tell me difference in contact set and component contact in simulation.
Contact refers to how the components interact with each other (bonded, not bonded). The hierarchy in SW simulation goes as follows: Global contacts>Component contacts>contact set (local contact). Contact sets are defined between two faces/edges that can even be within the same component, these are commonly used in cases where you want to simulate interactions between faces that are free to come in contact but are also free to separate (no penetration contacts). When you choose component contacts SW requires a list of 2 or more components and it will impose the specified conditions on all faces it finds in common between those components. Because of their hierarchy, local contacts will overwrite component contacts and component contacts will overwrite global contact conditions.
Classic explanation..
Thanks! I'm glad you liked it!
My FEA professor said that the Solidworks Smulation FEA tool is inaccurate and shouldn't be used.
Seems like a pretty broad statement.
That's been heard a lot. I rarely used solidworks for FEA. I think when you have more nodal elements, your accuracy tend to increase. FEA dedicated softwares should be having an edge in that sense.

But finite element analysis is not computational solid mechanics. Do not conflate the two
Tissue paper is also not always Kleenex. Personally I try to avoid being too pedantic about these things.
@@TheBomPE i try not to confuse people with mislaid terminology. it depends how much detail you want the viewer to have i guess. it's more like saying that all wood is kleenex given the disparity. fully appreciate that's not the purpose or intent of the video and it's title. you'd be surprised how widespread the issue is and the impact it has on the basic understanding between different groups. while that can be considered pedantic it depends what your perspective is and if you have any role in bringing insight on what the difference is between solid mechanics and numerical methods.
Great lecture but as a European, it is really strange to have a lecture with Imperial system...
I do about a half and half mix of SI and US units on my channel. Currently US viewers account for triple the watch time of the next highest country (India). In the US, "Imperial" units are the ones we "feel" most natively. Here, they are also probably the most widely used units for things like raw materials, fasteners, etc. Anyway, they are still very important, particularly to US watchers, so I do both.
@@TheBomPE Thanks a lot for the clarification. I completely understand the position you are in. I was making a general comment of my experience. Thanks again!
