The Linear Structural Validation app is used to perform a linear static analysis on a simple part. The simulation is then run and the results are analyzed. Learn how to set up the linear static study. Apply fixtures, materials and loads. Run the simulation and analyze the model for stress and displacement. Generate and review the simulation report.
Learn how to prepare a model before 3D printing. Understand how to orient the part for the best printing results. Understand the implication of infill, wall thickness, shrinkage, and more on part strength and material usage.
Understand how export settings impact the quality of the 3D printed model. Learn about the different file types supported by todays 3D printers. Learn how to change file settings in SOLIDWORKS for better print results.
