How to Archive Environment in SolidWorks Electrical?

Environment Archive: The Environment Archive can contain all the Library items and all of the Active Projects. Depending on the size of your Environment in SolidWorks Electrical and whether you are using SOLIDWORKS Electrical 3D will greatly affect the size of your Environment. To Archive the Environment, the Command is run from a Client Computer. Here are the steps to archiving the Environment in SolidWorks Electrical. Launch SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematic on a client computer. From the File tab of the Command Ribbon (Command Manager), Select Archive Environment.

4. The Archive Environment Wizard will Launch

5. Click the Next Button to Proceed to the Selection Tab of the Archive Environment Wizard.

6. If you are archiving the Environment for a Server Move I would select all objects. Otherwise, you can select an appropriate option. 7. After making your Selection Click on the Next Button. You will see a Summary of all the items to be archived.

8. Click Finish to begin the archive process (This may take some time to see any activity, the system is gathering data) 9. Next, you will be prompted for the location and File name to save the Archive. (by default the archive is named Enviroment_Date.tewzip save this file to a location that you can access later.

What is Material Calibration – A Deep Dive

Material Calibration – A Deep Dive Knowing how to represent the materials in the structure is one of the hurdles of using Abaqus for sophisticated modeling. It’s really easy to define a basic linear elastic material model. It’s a little trickier to define a nonlinear elastic material, like rubber or elastomer, but you may learn more about that topic by attending some of our excellent courses.

Rubber and elastomeric materials can get even more complicated than just their nonlinear elastic behavior, exhibiting significant viscous behavior and something called Mullin’s damage. The image above shows test data exhibiting all of these behaviors. It is very common that one needs to decide which behavior is important for your particular application. Trying to develop an “all-encompassing” material model that captures things such as rate dependence, temperature dependence, etc., is often not required to get some good design guidance from simulation.

We plan to write a number of articles that tackle typical problems with material modeling and calibration. We will be adding content to this article around every month, so please check back from time to time. In the event that the measured portion of the specimen exhibits uniform material behavior, then calibration can be carried out using equations – if you know them. Two common non-homogeneous deformations are i) necking in a tensile test and ii) compression puck with friction. For non-homogeneous deformations, we often use multi-element Abaqus analyses for calibration. Other times, the deformation might be homogeneous, but you don’t know the stress-strain relation equations (in closed form). In that case we often use Abaqus analysis of a “unit-cube” for calibration. We will have individual posts that describe each of these types of calibration approaches.

This Post will serve as an overview and summary of material test data that we can share with each other.

How is AI integrated into SOLIDWORKS browser-based design?

 AI in SOLIDWORKS Browser Based Design

 

While Artificial Intelligence has been in the trend recently, designers and engineers wonder how it could assist them. Now with SOLIDWORKS browser-based design role - the 3DCreator, you get AI features to ease the workflows and reduce design cycle times. While there are lot of AI features on the way, let’s have a look at few of the available features now.

 

Design Assistant

The Design Assistant in the 3D Creator (Browser based parametric CAD) is an AI-powered feature that helps users streamline their design process by providing intelligent suggestions and automation that leverages machine learning to analyse existing geometry and user actions, offering recommendations such as part placement, feature reuse, and design standardization.

 

 

Sketch Assistance 

Provides recommendations for sketching based on existing geometry or design intent. Let’s say you draw a sketch on the corner of a rectangular bar. A suggestion pops up showing the same sketch on all other corners, which you can simply accept from

 

Selection Assistant 

 

Identifies common design elements and suggests while carrying out specific operations. When you apply a fillet for an edge, 3D Creator will show you suggestions of the similar edges in your model which saves the time on selection.

 

 

Component Placement Assistant 

Automatically suggests optimal positioning based on previous patterns or standard practices. In the illustration, you can notice once the bolt has been mated, there will be suggestion showing all other four holes. Once accepted, all holes are filled and mated automatically with the bolts.

 

 

More complex your models are, more the time savings you realize. The above are few of the features, which reduces manual input by predicting the next steps in the design process, making it easier to create complex models with minimal effort.

Contact us to know more on this and stay tuned for the AI updates in the mighty SOLIDWORKS 3D CAD.
