SimuliaWorks - THERMAL STRUCTURAL Tutorial

Step-by-step SimuliaWorks thermal/structural tutorial on a simple model. Viewers can follow along using models which can be downloaded at the links below. The model file contains a simple microchip and heat sink. The steps include:
-A steady-state thermal step
-Custom material creation
-Creating contacts
-Initial temperature, heat power, and film coefficient boundary conditions
-Stabilization restraint
-Meshing models
-and more
SimuliaWorks is a tool available on the 3DExperience platform which uses the world class Abaqus solver for performing high-level FEA work.

Once you download the models, look for the "regulator" assembly among the downloaded files. This should be is Lesson 7, but may depend on what year you download the files.
