Autodesk Inventor's Dynamic Simulation can be used to describe how your products work. You can use Inventor Studio to create animations, but Dynamic Simulation takes it to the next level. Apply gravity and you can make videos showing how your assembly works in the real world. There's a lot to learn, but the Inventor 2017-2018: Dynamic Simulation Made Simple course makes it simple.
You can make components interact with forces, pressure, friction, you name it. And it's simple. You just apply a few physical characteristics to the components, watch them work together, and learn more about your product. Do a little more testing and the quality of your simulation improves with each iteration. So it's an iterative process that helps you improve your products.
Once you learn the workflow, you can produce accurate Dynamic Simulations faster than you can put presentations together. You might even stop using Inventor Studio to demonstrate your assemblies.
This course uses a trebuchet to help take you to highest level. It shows all the steps required to successfully produce a simulation of an enhanced trebuchet. It also explains the iterative process of improving the results as well as the design. Each step of the way you will practice the iterative process so that you will learn an effective workflow.
