1. Try FEA For Free
Did you know your SOLIDWORKS includes free component-level stress analysis? It's in the SimulationXpress tool, an accessible, scaled-back introduction to simulation for designers.
It's an easy & low-stakes way to:
- Learn SOLIDWORKS FEA fundamentals
- Get rough stress validation on your principal component loads
2. Start Low-Cost, High-Impact
Assembly-level stress and kinematic simulations are the “low-hanging fruit”, providing great engineering value with minimal investment of time and money.
With only basic FEA know-how, you can:
- Ensure fundamental design objectives
- Reduce iteration cycles
- Make design decisions with confidence
Start getting stress & motion insights with:
3. Add Real-World Context
With just a bit more training and budget, designers can virtualize their drop test, buckling, frequency, pressure-vessel, and thermal analyses.
This “virtual testing” regime assesses more real-world concerns to:
- Uncover innovative new approaches
- Eliminate costly “overdesign”
- Predict field failures
Expand your virtual testing regime using:

4. Get Sophisticated
As physical tests get more difficult and costly, virtualizing them can have outsized ROI. Simulation capabilities such as material nonlinearity, assembly interactions, linear dynamics, fluids, and thermal analysis make it possible.
This higher level of fidelity and complexity allows you to:
- Push innovation & quality further
- Validate manufacturability
- Reduce physical prototyping

5. Simulate Anything
At the final stage of simulation, anything is possible -- all-inclusive assemblies & interactions, minimal assumptions, multiphysics, etc. With keen engineering judgment and creativity, a complete virtual prototype can be enormously beneficial to development costs and outcomes.
Virtual prototyping is critical in order to:
- Compete at the cutting edge
- Maximize quality & efficiency
- Replace physical testing & certification

Simulation Is Important. This Is How You Do It.
It’s common knowledge that simulation helps us design faster, better, and at lower cost… but knowing and doing are two different things.
With our 20+ years experience implementing simulation at companies of all sizes, this is how we help companies ensure success and ROI at every stage, from simulation novice to analytical expert.
Why Do We Simulate?
They don’t make them like they used to – product innovation is more challenging than ever.
This eBook shows you how top performers are using simulation today, along with several success stories for you to learn from.
