Linear Static Analysis in Solid Edge Simulation

This video demonstrates Linear Static Analysis in Solid Edge Simulation.

Open the model to analyse.
Select new study.
In study type select linear static.
In mesh type select Tetrahedral,
click ok

Click Material- Select Steel.
Click on apply to model.

In constraints tab select "fixed" feature, set "face" option & Select to fix the points in the model.

Select "force" from structural loads,set "face" enter force value as 10 & reverse the direction, right click of mouse to accept.

Click on "mesh", set mesh size as coarser or finer depending on the requirement, click on "mesh & solve".

After solving, you can see stress values developed at different points.

In data selection set to displacement option, it will show the displacement values at various points.

its easy to make changes regarding Material, load, constraints & mesh to be made to the model in Solid edge.
Click on simulation pane bar at left side, in this let us change force value as 20 and rerun the solve.
This helps us to analyse our model for various load values or different material easily.

In solid edge we have a option to animate the model under analysis.
Click on "Animate" command.

Solid edge provides variety options for output results.

you can "create report",
you can save this as a "image" or
you can also save this animation as a "movie file"
& share with your team members for review.

click on "save as movie" option.

Solid Edge also gives you displacement values at particular node.
Click on probe, window dialog box appears, now go on selecting required nodes to displays the analysis & positional data values.

Close simulation results & save your model.
