@@benrosow7997 I am very happy for it! Your lessons helped me a ton with my masters thesis. All my simulations (which were not really complicated but still, SW simulation was all new for me) ran great just using your shared knowledge and a bit of fiddling :) I am so thankful for you!
Ben, you are an amazing tutor. I was feeling demotivated to tackle a Solidworks Simulation task which I had to perform, but this lesson 1 by you really rejuvenated my confidence and now I'll attack again! Thank you for your detailed explanation! Cannot wait to go through the next lessons! Cheers! Could you cover one using a Vertical Impact Simulation somewhere in the future too, thks!
excellent webinar, I'd say, keep going so far the best I've ever seen. Very informative. Do you intend to do similar webinars with other simulations, e.g. thermal, non-linear or something with Flow?
Kemeny, Thanks for the props. As long as this helps users, it's worth doing. I dare say that the next four webinars are better as my rhythm got better over time. And, yes, we are working on a content list right now and should have more of these out soon. I'll add your suggestions to the list.
Thank you for this useful and informative tutorial. I am using a fishing line in my model and I'm not sure how to apply the two-element meshing option as the line is similar to a very thin, long rod. I tried normal meshing, but it failed (off course). Any advice would be appreciated.
Mohammad, I have use a beam element for a cable befor. Obviously the cable was modelled as a very thin rod. The beam element applied to the body (right click and select 'Tream as beam') will work under the followign limitations: 1) Don't expect it to work for anything but tension. Yo should be OK here since it is fishing line. 2) each end of the beam has a JOINT. Each joint should be connected (bonded) to something else. You can do that with a contact set (2020 and older) or a Local Interaction(2021 and later). As long as you are pulling on the 'fishing line', you should be OK. Remember that SW will calculate a cros-sectional area based upon the actual diameter of the line. Also, the material will play a big part. If you are using a flexible material, you can expect it to stretch a lot so deformations may be large. Therefore, go into the study properties (right click the study name at the top) and choose PROPERTIES. Then tick the Large Deformations box. This will enable SW Sim Linear Static to cope with changes to the shape that may appear to the program to be violating the small displacement assumption. The material of the filament will become stiffer as it stretches and the large displacement formulation will account for this change. If the modulus of elasticity is too low (that is, the material is VERY stretchy), you still might have problems.
@@benrosow7997 Thank you so much Ben for this fulfilling response. I am in fact using a non-linear study with the Large Displacement option checked. Thanks again.
thanks alot for the information, i'm doing a dynamic simulation and i'm trying to add a no penetration contact between two components, but i didn't find that option, there's just bonded and allow penetration, is something wrong with my solidworks!!!!
Hello, how to use graphics card to do the computation any simulation (e.g. static study, topology optimization etc)? I have a low processor with 16 GB RAM, and GPU RTX 3060. Thank You.

Just wanted to thank you! Very clear, simple and most important Informative content on Solidworks simulation!
Much appreciated. we plan to do more.

@@aleksasrymas2524 that is very gratifying.

Thanks, Neil. Just saw this. We will be doing more in the future so I think you would be interested in the DROP Test module from Sim Professional.

Amazing, thank you Ben
very informative.thanks and keep going.
Not your 'fault' but, as with so many IT tutorials.....not much use when GUI/ribbon/buttons are quite different.
