Course Overview


The Autodesk Simulation Mechanical - Static Stress, Heat & Linear training course will introduce you to the static stress, heat transfer, and linear dynamics analysis capabilities available within Autodesk Simulation Mechanical. You will learn about meshing, loads, and constraints for each of the covered analysis types. Most importantly, you will learn how to evaluate the results. You will also learn how to create custom presentations and reports of the results. This Autodesk Simulation Mechanical - Static Stress, Heat & Linear course is a prerequisite to Autodesk Simulation Mechanical Part 2, where large scale motion, large deformation, large strain with contact, geometric nonlinearity, and non-linear material models are covered.
