For new users, setting up simulations may require a bit of a learning curve. For more experienced users, knowing when all the required steps have been successfully completed can help ensure a simulation is ready to be solved, thereby increasing efficiency.

The Structural Performance Engineer role (part of the 3DEXPERIENCE WORKS simulation portfolio) provides structural simulation with advanced linear, non-linear static, transient and modal dynamic, quasi-static, frequency, buckling, thermal simulation and thermal-structural simulation capabilities for the product designer/engineer. These types of simulations enable studying the effects of external influences on designs, such as external forces, temperature, wear and tear, and harmonic response, and provide valuable feedback for refining the product design.
