Tutorial: Using simulation/ FEM Analysis in Catia V5


Using simulation in Catia V5
-
Step 1:
Create a model and apply material and go to generative structural analysis.
-
Step 2:
Use the clamp option to fix a face of the component.
-
Step 3:
Select a face to be fixed
-
Step 4:
Define load
-
Step 5:
Define the value of load
-
Step 6:
Define the direction of load by using "+" or "-" symbol infront of the value
-
Step 7:
Click on compute to perform the calculations
-
Step 8:
Click on preview->ok
-
Step 9:
After the calculation is complete successfully, check the various stresses.
-
Step 10:
Clicking on von-misses will display somewhat similar result
-
Step 11:
You can check deformation
-
Step 12:
tools->animate to see the animation
-
Step 13:
tools->generate report to generate a report.
