CATIADesign and Engineering
Introduction to Nonlinear Structural Analysis and Thermal Analysis
This course introduces two products, Nonlinear Structural Analysis (ANL) and Thermal Analysis (ATH). Together, these products extend the existing CATIA V5 Analysis capabilities. They let designers extend their product simulation capabilities to consider permanent material deformation, large displacements, and advanced contact, as well as response to thermal loading. You will follow the general process to perform a finite element analysis for parts and assemblies and learn how to use the different tools to achieve this.
