Today I want to share a clear example of the correct use of mathematics applied to design, designing a dodecahedron in solidworks, but not a solid body, if not one more elaborated using other tools offered by SOLIDWORKS, in this tutorial. Do you enjoy it

Suspension & Steering Geometry (Front) | 4 Wheeler | Double Wishbone | Anti-Ackerman

A Square C & D
in Modeling
6 9 Intermediate
In this video tutorial, i have shown how to make Front Suspension and Steering geometry of a 4 wheeler. Here, I have taken an All terrain Vehicle(ATV) suspension and steering system for reference, but same approach can be applied while designing for Standard cars and other vehicles. Only the parameters will change according to the type and dynamics of the vehicle. Suspension type- Double Wishbone Steering geometry type- Anti-ackerman Model link:- https://grabcad.com/library/suspension-and-steering-geometry-4-wheeler-1 Basic Parameters used :- 1. Wheelbase= 55 inches 2. Trackwidth= 52 inch (Front and Rear same) 3.Front Ground clearance= 15 inches 4. Rear Ground clearance= 14 inches 5. KPI angle= 7° 6. Castor angle= 12° 7. Knuckle length= 6 inches 8. Spindle length= 120 mm 9. Spindle length (for wheel nut)= 75 mm 10. Steering Arm length= 80 mm 11. Steering Arm angle with spindle= 110° 12. Tyre Outer Diameter= 23 inches Please note that these parameters are used just for educating and learning purpose. Concrete calculations and certain other important factors related to Vehicle dynamics and Handling along with suspension analysis are considered and performed before designing any suspension and steering system of any vehicle. But these values are close to the standard industry values. I also used them in various college level projects. So they can be used as reference values.

2 1 Intermediate
All you need to know is just functionality of the feature! I have created 3d Model of Exhaust Manifold from its drawing step by step so that even an absolute beginner can follow this tutorial. There are so many different commands used to create it. If you want to take a step up then this is the right tutorial to follow. All you need to have is just SolidWorks and patience :)

Introduction xGenerative design - CATIA 3DEXP

Maxime Chagnot
in Modeling
2 1 Beginner
Hello all, This video is an introduction to the new application xGenerative Design in CATIA 3DExperience. This is a very nice and powerful application that will change your way of thinking in CATIA. You will be able to design complex geometry using a map of feature, with no special skills required. This is a new way of using knowledge in your design. This application is web-based (3DExperience on web browser) but the model will be synchronized with the 3DExperience Rich Client. Follow the tutorial and will learn how to build a textured surface. Pro Tips: Divide the screen in 2, one side with the 3D viewer and one side with the map/graph. Play with the inputs the feature and visualize directly the output in 3D! Find the model on this GrabCad link: https://grabcad.com/library/xgenerative-plate-1 Please Like, Comment, Share and Subscribe :D

What is zero thickness geometry?

David Thomas
in Design & CAD
0 0 Beginner
Zero thickness geometry is when a feature is created that can not be solved due to the fact that there is precisely zero material at only a point or an edge. An example would be if you created an extruded circle that is tangent to an extruded square. There is a good explanation here: http://help.solidworks.com/2012/English/SolidWorks/sldworks/HIDE_ZeroThickness.htm I've reposted the general guidelines from that site below as reference.
