Supported Functions
SolidWorks Motion supports
many functions and expression functions. You can enter these functions
in the Expression
boxes of the Motor
or Force
PropertyManagers. You can use these expression functions to define a wide
variety of non-standard phenomena in your model in a Motion Analysis study.
