Creo Simulate 10.0: Structural and Thermal Analysis

The Creo Simulate 10.0: Structural and Thermal Analysis guide covers the fundamentals of Structural and Thermal Analysis in Creo Simulate. It provides you with the knowledge to effectively use Creo Simulate for finite element analysis, thereby reducing design time. Many concepts apply to both Structure and Thermal analysis; a portion of this guide is specifically dedicated to Thermal analysis. This is an extensive hands-on learning guide, in which you have the opportunity to apply your knowledge through real-world scenarios and examples.

Topics Covered:
• FEA Fundamentals: P-elements and analysis convergence methods
• FEA Fundamentals: P-elements and analysis convergence methods
• Basic Modeling and Analysis
• Types of Loads and Constraints
• Idealizations: Shells and Beams
• Sensitivity and Optimization Studies
• Assembly Interfaces and Contact Analysis
• Thermal Analysis
• Modal Analysis
• Welds, Springs, and Masses
• Fasteners and Rigid Links
• Buckling Analysis
