Boost your skills in Solidworks with the FEA using the Solidworks course

Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is the crux for research and higher studies in mechanical engineering. The FEA application as a computation tool is indispensable for engineering analysis.

Extensively used in the engineering world of 3D modelling, Solidworks is a great help for Automotive OEMs, Aerospace companies, power production industries, etc.

The four-week FEA course deals with real-time situations through six FEA simulation modules that use Solidworks like static analysis, dynamics analysis, buckling analysis, fatigue analysis, and drop test.

This course has been designed after consultation with the best in the industry and those associated with Fortune 500 companies.

The FEA certification course gives you ample opportunities to put academics into practice with hands-on projects. It equips you with training files and practice content to refer to in times of need.

Who Should Take the FEA using Solidworks Course?

The finite element course is best for mechanical, aerospace, or automotive engineers. As it is based on sound engineering knowledge, this course is ideal for engineering professionals who want to learn FEA and various FEA tools in Solidworks. Further, it is beneficial for FEA design and FEA consulting engineers wanting to upskill.

What Will You Learn?

The FEA course provides you with ample time to grasp topics like FEA explanation with cantilever beam and stress-strain plot before delving into FEA and mesh elements like H-refinement and P-refinement in the first week of study.

The second week of the FEA certification course includes diverse FEA analyses: structural analysis, static analysis, dynamic analysis, the difference between static and dynamic analysis, and linear and nonlinear analysis.

In week three, the FEA online course will train you to simplify complicated 3D simulations into simple 1D, 2D, or 3D simulations depending on the inputs. In the final week, it encourages you to create a design study of your model designs, perform simple simulations, and learn the different FEA simulation modules in detail.

Toward the end of the SolidWorks course, you will be able to perform buckling analysis for a cyclonic separator table. Buckling analysis is a method deployed to evaluate the critical buckling load of a structure (Estimating the stability against a load).

You will also gain a solid understanding of the drop test using SOLIDWORKS, which is used to analyse the impact of an external force acting on an object. By learning how to perform frequency analysis using SolidWorks simulation tools, you can find objects' natural frequency and resonance.

Skills You Will Gain

Expertise in meshing, element types, non-linearities, stiffness matrices, etc.
Knowledge of real-time simulations with LS-DYNA projects.
Expertise in applying explicit and implicit analysis techniques.

Key Highlights of the Course

The course offers a certificate of completion to all participants and merit certificates to the top 5% of learners.
In four weeks, you will progress from being a beginner to an adept user of FEA using Solidworks.
