Advanced Skills!
Finite Element Analysis
SolidWorks 2024-2025: FEA Made Simple really does make FEA simple. It shows you how to simplify your work while getting accurate results. In fact, it shows you how to learn the accuracy of your results. Finite Element Analysis can be learned by anyone with mechanical aptitude.
Learn how to unlock the power of FEA using simple math most people know. This course does not get into heavy math. It uses simple math with mechanical methods to get the job done just as accurately. Use the same simple concepts to check the accuracy of your studies, and your off and running.
This course shows you the details about how FEA works and what SolidWorks does to calculate results. Knowing this gives you the ability to give SolidWorks what it needs to accurately analyze your models. It's simply quality input gets quality output, and you'll know how to confirm the output is right.
The only prerequisite is you need to complete the first four courses in the series.
Once you've mastered the skills taught in this course you'll be ready for the MBD Made Simple course.
