In this white paper, we’ll delve into a valuable aspect of SolidWorks Simulation: the Remote Load/Mass feature. We’ll provide an overview of this feature and its benefits, followed by an analysis of a practical example. By examining this example both with and without utilizing the Remote Load/Mass feature results will […]

In this whitepaper we are going to apply our learning in the previous session into practice; also, learn about the concept of “Make Rigid ” and how to use them to accelerate an analysis. Problem Description In this whitepaper we are going to carry out the analysis of handrail support […]
The main difference between the finite element analysis of parts and assemblies is the component contact definition section. In this study, we are going to review the contact types when analysing assemblies. There are three levels of contact between parts: local, component and global. The level of priority in contact […]
In this whitepaper we are going to investigate how to find and deal with stress concentrations, review mesh control and how it affects stress results. For beginners: before starting this practice, it is recommended to read the previous whitepapers, first. Problem Description During this study we analyse a rail support- […]
In this article we complete the FEA of the problem explained in the previous whitepaper by running the model, postprocessing, reviewing and discussing the results. It is recommended to read part 1 first, in here. 6- Run the Analysis To run the analysis, use either of the steps presented in […]
esolidesign has experience of design, FEA, manufacturing drafting of various types of hydraulic gates. The type of gates are included but not limited to Bulkhead gates, Penstock Gates, Radial Gates and Flap Gates. The gates could be either aluminum or stainless steel. During one of our projects a bulkhead gate was […]
