Es increíble lo mucho que puede aprenderse de una simple viga! En pocos minutos vamos a vincular importantes conceptos de Resistencia de Materiales (RM) con los de la Teoría de la Elasticidad Lineal (TEL) experimentando con herramientas y tecnologías CADD+CAE.

Una reflexión sobre habilidades verbales y visuales para sacar provecho de los "grados de libertad (GDL)" presentes en los enunciados de los problemas de ingeniería. A tal efecto se aprovechan algunos resultados del desafío planteado como excusa para abordar estas ideas: https://grabcad.com/groups/weekly-challenge-group/discussions/a-mechanism-to-move-the-green-orange-rectangle

Conceptual Design of Dovetail Joint

Theory

Beginner
Some solutions to the challenge posed by https://grabcad.com/steen.winther are presented: impossible dovetail joint? Each one starts their attempt from a particular situation, which can lead them to first find a solution (such as the rectilinear one) and later others (such as the circular ones). What this tutorial intends is to show the style of conceptual thinking that allows "discovering the rules behind particular cases" to conclude that all possible solutions actually derive from "the same idea". Note: this type of challenge is useful for those who do not know the solution or other similar cases. The idea is to force the process of generating and evaluating ideas. Once you know the case, the opportunity to discover solutions is lost!

Simple animations, frame by frame

Beginner
There are many efficient ways to make animations from CAD models, such as those created in the SolidWorks Motion module. However, simple animations, created frame by frame, are still very useful because of their flexibility to be edited with graphics and text, manipulate their timing and transitions, etc. This tutorial provides some tips for creating animated giffs in PHOTOSCAPE from images taken from the SolidWorks screen.

Analogies are always imprecise, but let’s risk one that equates a car with a numerical simulator, with their respective internal machinery “under the hood.”
