SOLIDWORKS Simulation Premium Dynamics

Analysing structures subjected to various types of dynamic loading. This course is targeted for users who would like to become productive in analysing structures subjected to various types of dynamic loading. The material covered includes the time dependent analysis, harmonic analysis and random vibration analysis.

• Modal time history analysis
• Steady-state harmonic analysis
• Random vibration
• Response spectrum analysis
• Introduction to nonlinear dynamic simulation
• Rayleigh damping, modal damping, composite damping
• Load vs. time data for nodal forces, pressure loads
• Uniform and nonuniform base excitation in the time or frequency domain for displacement, velocity and acceleration
• Harmonic excitation for nodal forces, pressure loads, uniform and nonuniform ground motions and varied phase angles
• Power spectral density (PSD) excitation curves for nodal forces, pressure loads, uniform and nonuniform ground motions
• Response spectrum analysis (SRS and VRS) excitation for uniform base motion

Users who would like to become productive fast, the advanced course offers hand-on experience on the use of the SOLID WORKS Simulation Dynamics module including with SOLIDWORKS Simulation Premium
