Calculating Stress Analysis Results

With SolidWorks Simulation added in, you can perform stress, factor of safety, or deformation analysis of components without setting up loads and boundary conditions. The required loads are obtained automatically from a calculated Motion Analysis study.

To calculate stress analysis results on selected components:

  1. Set up the stress analysis on the part.

  2. Click Calculate Simulation Results .

    You must set up the stress analysis results before you can calculate them.
